  # DistilBERT (uncased) for FaceNews Classification
  
  This model is a classification model built by fine-tuning
  [DistilBERT base model](https://huggingface.co/distilbert-base-uncased).
  This model was trained using
  [fake-and-real-news-dataset](https://www.kaggle.com/clmentbisaillon/fake-and-real-news-dataset)
  for five epochs.
  
  > **NOTE:**
  This model is just a POC (proof-of-concept) for a fellowship I was applying for.
  
  ## Intended uses & limitations
  
  Note that this model is primarily aimed at classifying an article to either
  "Fake" or "Real".
