# BERT News Category Classifier

This model is a fine-tuned version of `bert-base-uncased` optimized to classify articles into 5 categories (Business, Tech, Politics, Sports, Entertainment). 

## Model Description
* **Architecture:** BERT-base-uncased with frozen base layers for training efficiency.
* **Task:** Multi-class Text Classification (NLP Pipeline).
* **Performance:** Achieved a 0.96 Macro-F1 score on evaluation.

## Training and Evaluation Data
* **Dataset:** BBC News Dataset.
* **Preprocessing:** Cleaned text fields tokenized using the standard BERT WordPiece tokenizer.

## Intended Uses & Limitations
This model is intended for production-ready news classification pipelines. It is lightweight due to layer-freezing optimization during training.
