+ **Model description**
4
+
5
+ This model was created by finetuning the mBERT model for the downstream task of Hate speech detection for the Amharic language.
6
+ The initial mBERT model used for finetuning is Davlan/bert-base-multilingual-cased-finetuned-amharic which was provided by Davlan on Huggingface.
7
+ The model was fine-tuned using HuggingFace's Trainer API. The final result of the finetuning has an F1-score of 0.9172 and an accuracy of 91.59%.

+ **Dataset description**
10
+ The finetuning was done on an Amharic Dataset that was made available by Mendeley Data (https://data.mendeley.com/datasets/ymtmxx385m). It has a size of 30,000 rows.
