# SwahBERT: Language model of Swahili
|
7 |
+
|
8 |
+
The model and all credits belong to the original authors. The model was uploaded to the HuggingFace Hub for convenience.
|
9 |
+
For more details, please refer the **[original repository](https://github.com/gatimartin/SwahBERT)**.
|
10 |
+
|
11 |
+
Is a pretrained monolingual language model for Swahili. <br>
|
12 |
+
The model was trained for 800K steps using a corpus of 105MB that was collected from news sites, online discussion, and Wikipedia. <br>
|
13 |
+
The evaluation was perfomed on several downstream tasks such as emotion classification, news classification, sentiment classification, and Named entity recognition.

SwahBERT => ['mlima', 'kilimanjaro', 'unapatikana', 'tanzania']
|
26 |

## Pre-training data
|
31 |
+
The text was extracted from different sorces;<br>
|
32 |
+
- News sites: `United Nations news, Voice of America (VoA), Deutsche Welle (DW) and taifaleo`<br>
|
33 |
+
- Forums: `JaiiForum`<br>
|
34 |
+
- ``Wikipedia``.

## Emotion Dataset
|
49 |
+
We released the **[`Swahili emotion dataset`](https://github.com/gatimartin/SwahBERT/tree/main/emotion_dataset)**.<br>
|
50 |
+
The data consists of ~13K emotion annotated comments from social media platforms and translated English dataset. <br>
|
51 |
+
The data is multi-label with six Ekman’s emotions: happy, surprise, sadness, fear, anger, and disgust or neutral.
|
52 |
+
|
53 |
+
## Evaluation
|
54 |
+
The model was tested on four downstream tasks including our new emotion dataset
