# Detection of employment status disclosures on Twitter
## Model main characteristics:
- class: Is Unemployed (1), else (0)
- country: US
- language: English
- architecture: BERT base
## Model description
This model is a version of `DeepPavlov/bert-base-cased-conversational` finetuned by [@manueltonneau](https://huggingface.co/manueltonneau) to recognize English tweets where a user mentions that she is unemployed. It was trained on English tweets from US-based users. The task is framed as a binary classification problem with:
- the positive class referring to tweets mentioning that a user is currently unemployed (label=1)
- the negative class referring to all other tweets (label=0)
## Resources
The dataset of English tweets on which this classifier was trained is open-sourced [here](https://huggingface.co/datasets/worldbank/twitter-labor-market).
Details on the performance can be found in our [ACL 2022 paper](https://aclanthology.org/2022.acl-long.453/).
