DistilBERT Fine-Tuned for Financial Sentiment Analysis

Model Description

This model is a fine-tuned version of distilbert-base-uncased specifically tailored for sentiment analysis in the financial domain. It has been trained on the Financial PhraseBank dataset to classify financial texts into three sentiment categories:

• Negative (label 0)
• Neutral (label 1)
• Positive (label 2)

Model Performance

The model was trained for 5 epochs and evaluated on a held-out test set constituting 20 of the dataset.

Evaluation Metrics

Epoch	Eval Loss	Eval Accuracy
1	0.2210	94.26%
2	0.1997	95.81%
3	0.1719	96.69%
4	0.2073	96.03%
5	0.1941	96.69%

Training Metrics

• Final Training Loss: 0.0797
• Total Training Time: Approximately 3869 seconds (~1.07 hours)
• Training Samples per Second: 2.34
• Training Steps per Second: 0.147

Training Procedure

Data

• Dataset: Financial PhraseBank
• Configuration: sentences_allagree (sentences where all annotators agreed on the sentiment)
• Dataset Size: 2264 sentences
• Data Split: 80% training (1811 samples), 20% testing (453 samples)

Model Configuration

• Base Model: distilbert-base-uncased
• Number of Labels: 3 (negative, neutral, positive)
• Tokenizer: Same as the base model's tokenizer

Hyperparameters

• Number of Epochs: 5
• Batch Size: 16 (training), 64 (evaluation)
• Learning Rate: 5e-5
• Optimizer: AdamW
• Evaluation Metric: Accuracy
• Seed: 42 (for reproducibility)

Usage

You can load and use the model with the Hugging Face transformers library as follows:

import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification, AutoTokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("AnkitAI/distilbert-base-uncased-financial-news-sentiment-analysis")
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("AnkitAI/distilbert-base-uncased-financial-news-sentiment-analysis")

text = "The company's revenue declined significantly due to market competition."
inputs = tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt")
with torch.no_grad():
    outputs = model(**inputs)

logits = outputs.logits
predicted_class_id = logits.argmax().item()

label_mapping = {0: "Negative", 1: "Neutral", 2: "Positive"}
predicted_label = label_mapping[predicted_class_id]

print(f"Text: {text}")
print(f"Predicted Sentiment: {predicted_label}")
