Model Card for distilroberta-base-climate-tcfd

Model Description

This is the fine-tuned ClimateBERT language model with a classification head for classifying climate-related paragraphs into the four TCFD recommendation categories (fsb-tcfd.org).

Using the climatebert/distilroberta-base-climate-f language model as starting point, the distilroberta-base-climate-tcfd model is fine-tuned on our climatebert/tcfd_recommendations dataset using only the four recommendation categories (i.e., we remove the non-climate-related class from the dataset).

Note: This model is trained on paragraphs. It may not perform well on sentences.

How to Get Started With the Model

You can use the model with a pipeline for text classification:

from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification, AutoTokenizer, pipeline
from transformers.pipelines.pt_utils import KeyDataset
import datasets
from tqdm.auto import tqdm

dataset_name = "climatebert/tcfd_recommendations"
model_name = "climatebert/distilroberta-base-climate-tcfd"

# If you want to use your own data, simply load them as 🤗 Datasets dataset, see https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/loading
dataset = datasets.load_dataset(dataset_name, split="test")

model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained(model_name)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name, max_len=512)

pipe = pipeline("text-classification", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer, device=0)

# See https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main_classes/pipelines#transformers.pipeline
for out in tqdm(pipe(KeyDataset(dataset, "text"), padding=True, truncation=True)):
   print(out)
