# Model Card for Sentiment Classifier for Depression

This model is a fine-tuned version of BERT (`bert-base-uncased`) for classifying text as either **Depression** or **Non-depression**. The model was trained on a custom dataset of mental health-related social media posts and has shown high accuracy in sentiment classification.

## Training Data
The model was trained on a custom dataset of tweets labeled as either depression-related or not. Data pre-processing included tokenization and removal of special characters.

## Training Procedure
The model was trained using Hugging Face's `transformers` library. The training was conducted on a T4 GPU over 3 epochs, with a batch size of 16 and a learning rate of 5e-5.

## Evaluation and Testing Data
The model was evaluated on a 20% holdout set from the custom dataset.

## Results

- **Accuracy:** 99.87%
- **Precision:** 99.91%
- **Recall:** 99.81%
- **F1 Score:** 99.86%

## Environmental Impact
The carbon emissions from training this model can be estimated using the [Machine Learning Impact calculator](https://mlco2.github.io/impact#compute) presented in [Lacoste et al. (2019)](https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.09700).

- **Hardware Type:** T4 GPU
- **Hours used:** 1 hour
- **Cloud Provider:** Google Cloud (Colab)
- **Carbon Emitted:** Estimated at 0.45 kg CO2eq

## Technical Specifications

- **Architecture**: BERT (`bert-base-uncased`)
- **Training Hardware**: T4 GPU in Colab
- **Training Library**: Hugging Face `transformers`
