  ## Model description
  
  The **roberta-base-es-wikicat-es** is a Text Classification model for the Catalan language fine-tuned from the [roberta-base-bne](https://huggingface.co/PlanTL-GOB-ES/roberta-base-bne) model, a [RoBERTa](https://arxiv.org/abs/1907.11692) base model pre-trained on a medium-size corpus collected from publicly available corpora and crawlers (check the roberta-base-bne model card for more details).
  
  ## Intended uses and limitations
  
  **roberta-base-es-wikicat-es** model can be used to classify texts. The model is limited by its training dataset and may not generalize well for all use cases.
  
  ## How to use
  
  Here is how to use this model:
  
  ```python
  from transformers import pipeline
  from pprint import pprint
  nlp = pipeline("text-classification", model="roberta-base-es-wikicat-es")
  example = "Sedna es el cuerpo menor del sistema solar número 90377; concretamente es un objeto transneptuniano."
  tc_results = nlp(example)
  pprint(tc_results)
  ```
  
  ## Limitations and bias
  At the time of submission, no measures have been taken to estimate the bias embedded in the model. However, we are well aware that our models may be biased since the corpora have been collected using crawling techniques on multiple web sources. We intend to conduct research in these areas in the future, and if completed, this model card will be updated.
  
  ## Training
  
  ### Training data
  We used the TC dataset in Spanish called [WikiCAT_esv2](https://huggingface.co/datasets/PlanTL-GOB-ES/WikiCAT_esv2) for training and evaluation.
  
  ### Training procedure
  The model was trained with a batch size of 16 and three learning rates (1e-5, 3e-5, 5e-5) for 5 epochs. We then selected the best learning rate (2e-5) and checkpoint (epoch 3) using the downstream task metric in the corresponding development set.
  
  ## Evaluation
  
  ### Variable and metrics
  
  This model was finetuned maximizing F1 (macro) score.
  
  ### Evaluation results
  We evaluated the _roberta-base-es-wikicat-es_ on the WikiCAT_esv2 dev set:
  | Model        | WikiCAT_ca (F1)| 
  | ------------|:-------------|
  | rroberta-base-es-wikicat-es | 0.76632 |
