# Classifier for Academic Text Contents

This model is a fine-tuned version of [sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2](https://huggingface.co/sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2) on a collection of Linguistics publications.
It achieves the following results on the evaluation set:
- Loss: 0.4181
- Accuracy: 0.9193

## Model description

The model is fine-tuned with academic publications in Linguistics, to classify texts in publications into 4 classes as a filter to other tasks.
Sentence-based data obtained from OCR-processed PDF files was annotated manually with the following classes:
- 0: out of scope - materials that are of low significance, eg. page number and page header, noise from OCR/pdf-to-text convertion
- 1: main text - texts that are the main texts of the publication, to be used for down-stream tasks
- 2: examples - texts that are captions of the figures, or quotes or excerpts
- 3: references - references of the publication, excluding in-text citations

## Intended uses & limitations

Intended uses:
- to extract main text in academic texts for down-stream tasks

Limitations:
- training and evaluation data is limited to English, and academic texts in Linguistics (though still to a higher extent usable for German texts)

## How to run

```python
from transformers import pipeline

# return output for the best label
# eg. [{'label': 'EXAMPLE', 'score': 0.9601941108703613}]
classifier = pipeline("text-classification", model="howanching-clara/classifier_for_academic_texts", tokenizer="howanching-clara/classifier_for_academic_texts")

# return output for all labels
# eg. [[{'label': 'OUT OF SCOPE', 'score': 0.007808608002960682}, {'label': 'MAIN TEXT', 'score': 0.028077520430088043}, {'label': 'EXAMPLE', 'score': 0.9601941108703613}, {'label': 'REFERENCE', 'score': 0.003919811453670263}]]
# classifier = pipeline("text-classification", model="howanching-clara/classifier_for_academic_texts", tokenizer="howanching-clara/classifier_for_academic_texts", return_all_scores=True)

# Perform inference on your input text
your_text = "your text here."
result = classifier(your_text)

print(result)
```

- In the case of (ioii) and (1 lii), the passive transformation will
apply to the embedded sentence, and in all four cases other
operations will give the final surface forms of (8) and (g).


- (10) (i) Noun Phrase — Verb — Noun Phrase — Sentence
(/ — persuaded — a specialist — a specialist will examine
John)
(ii) Noun Phrase — Verb — Noun Phrase — Sentence
(/ — persuaded — John — a specialist will examine John)

- 184 SOME RESIDUAL PROBLEMS

- Peshkovskii, A. M. (1956). Russkii Sintaksis v Nauchnom Osveshchenii.
Moscow.

- S -» NP^Aux^VP

- (sincerity, [+N, —Count, +Abstract])
(boy, [+N, —Count, +Common, +Animate, +Human])
(may, [+M])

## Problematic cases

Definitions or findings written in point form are challenging for the model. For example:

- (2) (i) the string (1) is a Sentence (S); frighten the boy is a Verb
Phrase (VP) consisting of the Verb (V) frighten and the
Noun Phrase (NP) the boy; sincerity is also an NP; the
NP the boy consists of the Determiner (Det) the, followed
by a Noun (N); the NP sincerity consists of just an N;
the is, furthermore, an Article (Art); may is a Verbal
Auxiliary (Aux) and, furthermore, a Modal (M).

- (v) specification of a function m such that m(i) is an integer
associated with the grammar G4 as its value (with, let us
say, lower value indicated by higher number)
