# xlm-roberta-large-german-media-cap-v3
## Model description
An `xlm-roberta-large` model finetuned on multilingual training data containing texts of the `media` domain labelled with [major topic codes](https://www.comparativeagendas.net/pages/master-codebook) from the [Comparative Agendas Project](https://www.comparativeagendas.net/).
## How to use the model
```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, pipeline
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("xlm-roberta-large")
pipe = pipeline(
model="poltextlab/xlm-roberta-large-german-media-cap-v3",
task="text-classification",
tokenizer=tokenizer,
use_fast=False,
token="<your_hf_read_only_token>"
)
text = "We will place an immediate 6-month halt on the finance driven closure of beds and wards, and set up an independent audit of needs and facilities."
pipe(text)
```
### Gated access
Due to the gated access, you must pass the `token` parameter when loading the model. In earlier versions of the Transformers package, you may need to use the `use_auth_token` parameter instead.
## Model performance
The model was evaluated on a test set of 1203 examples (10% of the available data).<br>
Model accuracy is **0.64**.

## Inference platform
This model is used by the [CAP Babel Machine](https://babel.poltextlab.com), an open-source and free natural language processing tool, designed to simplify and speed up projects for comparative research.
## Cooperation
Model performance can be significantly improved by extending our training sets. We appreciate every submission of CAP-coded corpora (of any domain and language) at poltextlab{at}poltextlab{dot}com or by using the [CAP Babel Machine](https://babel.poltextlab.com).
## Debugging and issues
This architecture uses the `sentencepiece` tokenizer. In order to run the model before `transformers==4.27` you need to install it manually.
If you encounter a `RuntimeError` when loading the model using the `from_pretrained()` method, adding `ignore_mismatched_sizes=True` should solve the issue.
