| # RoBERTa-Based Topic Classification Model Using AG News Dataset |
|
|
| This repository hosts a RoBERTa-based transformer model fine-tuned for topic classification on the AG News dataset. The model identifies topics such as World, Sports, Business, and Science/Technology in a given news text. |
|
|
| ## Model Details |
|
|
| - **Model Architecture:** RoBERTa (roberta-base) |
| - **Task:** Topic Classification |
| - **Dataset:** AG News (from Hugging Face Datasets) |
| - **Fine-tuning Framework:** Hugging Face Transformers |
|
|
| ## Usage |
|
|
| ### Installation |
|
|
| ```sh |
| pip install transformers datasets torch |
| ``` |
|
|
| ### Loading and Predicting |
|
|
| ```python |
| from transformers import RobertaTokenizer, RobertaForSequenceClassification |
| import torch |
| |
| # Load model and tokenizer |
| model = RobertaForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("your-saved-model-directory") |
| tokenizer = RobertaTokenizer.from_pretrained("roberta-base") |
| model.eval() |
| |
| # Sample prediction |
| def predict_topic(texts, model, tokenizer, device='cpu'): |
| import re |
| if isinstance(texts, str): |
| texts = [texts] |
| |
| def preprocess(text): |
| text = text.lower() |
| text = re.sub(r"http\S+|www\S+|https\S+", '', text) |
| text = re.sub(r'\@\w+|\#', '', text) |
| text = re.sub(r"[^a-zA-Z0-9\s.,!?']", '', text) |
| text = re.sub(r'\s+', ' ', text).strip() |
| return text |
| |
| cleaned_texts = [preprocess(t) for t in texts] |
| inputs = tokenizer(cleaned_texts, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors="pt").to(device) |
| |
| model.to(device) |
| model.eval() |
| with torch.no_grad(): |
| outputs = model(**inputs) |
| preds = torch.argmax(outputs.logits, dim=1).tolist() |
| |
| label_map = {0: "World", 1: "Sports", 2: "Business", 3: "Sci/Tech"} |
| return [label_map[p] for p in preds] |
| |
| # Example |
| sample_texts = [ |
| "The stock market witnessed a major crash today due to inflation concerns.", |
| "The new space telescope has captured unprecedented images of distant galaxies." |
| ] |
| results = predict_topic(sample_texts, model, tokenizer) |
| for text, label in zip(sample_texts, results): |
| print(f"Text: {text}\nPredicted Topic: {label}\n") |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## Performance Metrics |
|
|
| - **Accuracy:** ~0.96 on AG News test split |
|
|
| ## Fine-Tuning Details |
|
|
| ### Dataset |
|
|
| The dataset is sourced from the AG News dataset available via Hugging Face Datasets. |
|
|
| ### Training |
|
|
| - Number of epochs: 3 |
| - Batch size: 8 |
| - Evaluation strategy: epoch |
| - Learning rate: 2e-5 |
|

|
|
| ## Limitations |
|
|
| - The model is trained specifically for AG News-style texts and may not generalize well to informal or unrelated domains. |
