# Model Card for EnvironmentalBERT-action |
|
|
|
## Model Description |
|
|
|
As an extension to [this paper](https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4622514), this is the EnvironmentalBERT-action language model. A language model that is trained to better classify action texts in the ESG domain. |
|
|
|
Using the [EnvironmentalBERT-base](https://huggingface.co/ESGBERT/EnvironmentalBERT-base) model as a starting point, the EnvironmentalBERT-action Language Model is additionally fine-trained on a dataset with 500 sentences to detect action text samples. The underlying dataset is comparatively small, so if you would like to contribute to it, feel free to reach out. :) |

|
## How to Get Started With the Model |
|
|
|
See these tutorials on Medium for a guide on [model usage](https://medium.com/@schimanski.tobi/analyzing-esg-with-ai-and-nlp-tutorial-1-report-analysis-towards-esg-risks-and-opportunities-8daa2695f6c5?source=friends_link&sk=423e30ac2f50ee4695d258c2c4d54aa5), [large-scale analysis](https://medium.com/@schimanski.tobi/analyzing-esg-with-ai-and-nlp-tutorial-2-large-scale-analyses-of-environmental-actions-0735cc8dc9c2?source=friends_link&sk=13a5aa1999fbb11e9eed4a0c26c40efa), and [fine-tuning](https://medium.com/@schimanski.tobi/analyzing-esg-with-ai-and-nlp-tutorial-3-fine-tune-your-own-models-e3692fc0b3c0?source=friends_link&sk=49dc9f00768e43242fc1a76aa0969c70). |
|
|
|
It is highly recommended to first classify a sentence to be "environmental" or not with the [EnvironmentalBERT-environmental](https://huggingface.co/ESGBERT/EnvironmentalBERT-environmental) model before classifying whether it is "action" or not. This intersection allows us to build a targeted insight into whether the sentence displays an "environmental action". |
|
|
|
You can use the model with a pipeline for text classification: |
|
|
|
```python |
|
from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification, AutoTokenizer, pipeline |
|
|
|
tokenizer_name = "ESGBERT/EnvironmentalBERT-action" |
|
model_name = "ESGBERT/EnvironmentalBERT-action" |
|
|
|
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained(model_name) |
|
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(tokenizer_name, max_len=512) |
|
|
|
pipe = pipeline("text-classification", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer) # set device=0 to use GPU |
|
|
|
# See https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main_classes/pipelines#transformers.pipeline |
|
print(pipe("We are actively working to reduce our CO2 emissions by planting trees in 25 countries.", padding=True, truncation=True)) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
## More details to the base models can be found in this paper |

While this dataset does not originate from the paper, it is a extension of it and the base models are described in it. |
