What is Roberta-Base-News-Classification?
This is a specialized news classification model built on RoBERTa-base architecture, fine-tuned to categorize news articles into four distinct categories: World, Sports, Business, and Science/Technology. The model has been optimized through FP16 quantization, making it particularly efficient for deployment in resource-constrained environments while maintaining high accuracy.
Implementation Details
The model utilizes a transformer-based architecture with a maximum sequence length of 512 tokens. It's been trained using carefully selected hyperparameters including a learning rate of 2e-5, AdamW optimizer, and weight decay of 0.01. The training process involved 3 epochs with an effective batch size of 16 through gradient accumulation.
- FP16 quantization for 2x memory reduction
- Comprehensive evaluation metrics (F1: 94.1%, Precision: 94.5%, Recall: 94.2%)
- Built-in classification head with dropout for robust predictions
Core Capabilities
- Efficient text classification across four news categories
- Optimized for production deployment with reduced memory footprint
- Handles sequences up to 512 tokens
- Easy integration with Hugging Face's transformers library
