cmpe346-assignment02-sentiment
This model was fine-tuned for CMPE 346 Assignment 02. The task is multilingual binary sentiment classification, where each input text is classified as either negative or positive.
Model description
I used xlm-roberta-base as the base model because it is trained on many languages and fits the multilingual structure of the dataset. I fine-tuned it with a sequence classification head for two labels:
LABEL_0: negativeLABEL_1: positive
Intended uses & limitations
This model is intended for classifying short or medium length multilingual texts as positive or negative. It can be used for sentiment analysis experiments and assignment evaluation.
Since it was trained only on the provided assignment dataset, it may not perform equally well on every domain or language. Very long texts are truncated during preprocessing, so some information may be lost for longer inputs.
Training and evaluation data
The model was trained on the training set provided for the assignment and evaluated on the provided validation set. The dataset contains multilingual text samples with binary sentiment labels.
Training procedure
The model was fine-tuned using Hugging Face Transformers on an A100 GPU in Google Colab.
