FinBERT for Financial Sentiment Analysis

This is a bert-base-uncased model fine-tuned on the Financial PhraseBank dataset for sentiment analysis of financial news.

This model was trained as part of the project available at https://github.com/jp-marques/financial-sentiment-analysis.

Model Description

This model is a fine-tuned version of ProsusAI/finbert for financial sentiment analysis. It classifies financial headlines into three categories: positive, negative, or neutral. The model achieves an accuracy of 80.8% on the test set, with a particularly strong F1-score of 50% for the negative class, which is crucial for risk detection.

Intended Uses & Limitations

This model is intended for analyzing the sentiment of financial news headlines, articles, and social media posts. It can be used to generate trading signals, assess market sentiment, or perform risk analysis.

Limitations:

• The model is trained on English financial news and may not generalize well to other languages or domains.
• The training data is from a specific time period and may not capture the nuances of new financial jargon or market conditions.

How to Use

You can use this model directly with a pipeline from the transformers library.

from transformers import pipeline

classifier = pipeline('sentiment-analysis', model="peejm/finbert-financial-sentiment")

text = "Stocks are soaring after the positive earnings report."
result = classifier(text)
print(result)
# [{'label': 'positive', 'score': 0.99...}]
