# distilbert-base-uncased-finetuned-news

This model is a fine-tuned version of [distilbert-base-uncased](https://huggingface.co/distilbert-base-uncased) on the ag_news dataset.
It achieves the following results on the evaluation set:
- Loss: 0.2117
- Accuracy: 0.9388
- F1: 0.9388

## Model description

This model is intended to categorize news headlines into one of four categories; World, Sports, Science & Technology, or Business

## Intended uses & limitations

The model is limited by the training data it used. If you use the model with a news story that falls outside of the four intended categories, it produces quite confused results.

## Training and evaluation data
