Tokenizer

During training the text was preprocessed using the original English BERT base tokenizer. We suggest the same tokenizer is used for inference.

Model output

The model classifies each input into one of four distinct classes:

  • 0 - acceptable
  • 1 - inappropriate
  • 2 - offensive
  • 3 - violent

Inference Examples
This model does not have enough activity to be deployed to Inference API (serverless) yet. Increase its social visibility and check back later, or deploy to Inference Endpoints (dedicated) instead.
