-NSP-CouncilSeg: Linear Text Segmentation for Municipal Meeting Minutes
-Model Description
+# Municipal Topics Classifier: Multi-Label Topic Classification for Portuguese Council Texts
 
-NSP-CouncilSeg is a fine-tuned BERT model specialized in Text Segmentation for municipal council meeting minutes. The model uses Next Sentence Prediction (NSP) to identify topic boundaries in long-form documents, making it particularly effective for segmenting administrative and governmental meeting minutes.
+## Model Description

+- 🎯 **Specialized for Municipal Topics**: Trained on Portuguese council meeting minutes with domain-specific preprocessing
+- 🏆 **Advanced Ensemble**: Combines LogisticRegression + 3x GradientBoosting models with adaptive weighting
+- 🧠 **Deep + Classical Features**: Merges TF-IDF vectors (10k features) with BERTimbau embeddings (768 dims)
+- 📊 **Multi-Label Classification**: Identifies multiple co-occurring topics per text
+- ⚡ **Optimized Thresholds**: Dynamic per-label thresholds tuned on validation data

-How It Works
+## Model Details
 
-The model predicts whether two consecutive sentences belong to the same topic (label 0: "is_next") or represent a topic transition (label 1: "not_next"). By applying this classifier sequentially across all sentence pairs in a document, it identifies topic boundaries.

-Sentence A: "By the President, minutes no. 28 of 20.12.2023 were present at the meeting."
-Sentence B: "After considering and analyzing the matter, the Municipal Executive unanimously decided to approve minute no. 28 of 12.20.2023."
-→ Prediction: Same Topic (confidence: 76%)
+## How It Works
 
-Sentence A: "After considering and analyzing the matter, the Municipal Executive unanimously decided to approve minute no. 28 of 12.20.2023."
-Sentence B: "There were no various processes and requests to submit."
-→ Prediction: Topic Boundary (confidence: 82%)
+The model processes Portuguese municipal texts through a sophisticated pipeline to identify relevant topics:
 
-Usage
-Quick Start with Transformers
+1. **Portuguese-Specific Preprocessing**
+   - Lowercasing and normalization
+   - Municipal entity recognition (e.g., "Câmara Municipal" → "camara_municipal")
+   - Legal term preservation (e.g., "Art. 5" → "artigo_5")
+   - Number and currency standardization
 
-from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForNextSentencePrediction
+2. **Dual Feature Extraction**
+   - **TF-IDF**: Captures term frequency patterns with n-grams (1-3)
+   - **BERTimbau**: Provides contextual semantic embeddings
+
+3. **Ensemble Prediction**
+   - Each base model predicts probabilities for all labels
+   - Adaptive weighted combination based on label rarity:
+     - **Rare labels**: Higher LogisticRegression weight
+     - **Common labels**: Higher GradientBoosting weight
+
+4. **Dynamic Thresholding**
+   - Per-label optimal thresholds (not fixed 0.5)
+   - Optimized for F1-score on validation set
+
+### Example
+
+**Input:**
+```
+A Câmara Municipal aprovou o orçamento de 2024 com investimentos em infraestruturas 
+e transportes públicos. O vereador apresentou uma proposta para melhorar o sistema 
+de recolha de resíduos.
+```
+
+**Output:**
+```
+Orçamento e Finanças (Confidence: 89%)
+Obras Públicas (Confidence: 76%)
+Transportes (Confidence: 68%)
+Ambiente (Confidence: 54%)
