  # GPT2-IMDB-neutral (LM + RL) 🎞😐✍
  
  ## What is it?
  A small GPT2 (`lvwerra/gpt2-imdb`) language model fine-tuned to produce **neutral**-ish movie reviews based on the [IMDB dataset](https://www.kaggle.com/lakshmi25npathi/imdb-dataset-of-50k-movie-reviews). The model is trained with rewards from a BERT sentiment classifier (`lvwerra/gpt2-imdb`) via **PPO**.
  
  ## Why?
  After reproducing the experiment [lvwerra/gpt2-imdb-pos](https://huggingface.co/lvwerra/gpt2-imdb-pos) but for generating **negative** movie reviews ([mrm8488/gpt2-imdb-neg](https://huggingface.co/mrm8488/gpt2-imdb-neg)) I wanted to check if I could generate neutral-ish movie reviews. So, based on the classifier output (logit), I saw that clearly negative reviews gives around *-4* values and clearly positive reviews around *4*. Then, it was esay to establish an interval ```[-1.75,1.75]``` that it could be considered as **neutral**. So if the classifier output was in that interval I gave it a positive reward while values out of the interval got a negative reward.
  
  ## Training setting
  The model was trained for `100` optimisation steps with a batch size of `128` which corresponds to `30000` training samples. The full experiment setup (for positive samples) in [trl repo](https://lvwerra.github.io/trl/04-gpt2-sentiment-ppo-training/).
  
  ## Examples
  A few examples of the model response to a query before and after optimisation:
