## Model Description
This model builds upon the pre-trained NB-BERT model developed by Nasjonalbibloteket, which is designed to handle the nuances of the Norwegian language. The fine-tuning process tailored the model to understand and classify the sentiment of Norwegian governmental communications, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic


## Use cases
Sentiment Analysis of Governmental Communication:
Objective: Analyze and classify the sentiment of official governmental communications from Norwegian authorities.
Example: Categorizing tweets from the Norwegian health department and government announcements to understand public sentiment trends.

## Limitations
The model is fine-tuned specifically for Norwegian

The model is only trained for government specific sentiment analysis 

## Training data
Source: The datasets used include:
Twitter data from the Norwegian Health Department (Folkehelseinstituttet) and the government (Rejeringen).
A timeline dataset of the Norwegian government's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The labeling process utilized a combination of Chatgpt4 and manuel corrections, the fine-tuning is included
