# Model Card for Topic Classification Model |
|
|
|
A fine-tuned DistilBERT model for multi-class topic classification. This model predicts the most relevant topic label from a predefined set based on input text. It was trained using 🤗 Transformers and PyTorch on a custom dataset derived from academic and news-style corpora. |
|
|
|
## Model Details |
|
|
|
### Model Description |
|
|
|
This model was developed by Daniel (@AfroLogicInsect) to classify text into one of several predefined topics. It builds on the `distilbert-base-uncased` architecture and was fine-tuned for multi-class classification using a softmax output layer. |
|
|
|
- **Developed by:** Daniel 🇳🇬 (@AfroLogicInsect) |
|
- **Model type:** DistilBERT-based multi-class sequence classifier |
|
- **Language(s):** English |
|
- **License:** MIT |
|
- **Finetuned from:** distilbert-base-uncased |

|
## Uses |
|
|
|
### Direct Use |
|
|
|
- Classify academic or news-style text into topics such as AI, finance, sports, climate, etc. |
|
- Embed in dashboards or content moderation tools for automatic tagging |
|
|
|
### Downstream Use |
|
|
|
- Can be extended to hierarchical topic classification |
|
- Useful for building recommendation engines or content filters |
|
|
|
### Out-of-Scope Use |
|
|
|
- Not suitable for sentiment or emotion classification |
|
- May not generalize well to informal or slang-heavy text |
|
|
|
## Bias, Risks, and Limitations |
|
|
|
- Trained on curated corpora — may reflect biases in source material |
|
- Topics are predefined and static — emerging topics may be misclassified |
|
- Confidence scores are probabilistic, not definitive |
|
|
|
### Recommendations |
|
|
|
- Use `top_k=5` with `return_all_scores=True` to retrieve multiple topic predictions |
|
- Consider fine-tuning on domain-specific data for improved accuracy |
|
|
|
## How to Get Started |
|
|
|
```python |
|
from transformers import pipeline |
|
|
|
classifier = pipeline( |
|
"text-classification", |
|
model="AfroLogicInsect/topic-model-analysis-model", |
|
tokenizer="AfroLogicInsect/topic-model-analysis-model", |
|
return_all_scores=True |
|
) |
|
|
|
text = "New AI breakthrough in natural language processing" |
|
results = classifier(text) |
|
top_5 = sorted(results[0], key=lambda x: x['score'], reverse=True)[:5] |
|
for i, res in enumerate(top_5): |
|
print(f"Top {i+1}: {res['label']} ({res['score']:.3f})") |
|
``` |
|
|
|
