Biodiversity Commitment Specificity Classifier

Model Overview
This binary text classification model evaluates the specificity of biodiversity commitments in corporate sustainability reports. Designed as a second-stage classifier for paragraphs already identified as commitments, it distinguishes between:

Specific: Commitments detailing concrete actions, measurable targets, clear strategies, or verifiable implementation plans
Non-specific: Vague, ambiguous, or unverifiable commitment statements

Model Architecture
Built on ClimateBERT, a DistilRoBERTa-based model pre-trained on climate-related text, this classifier was fine-tuned to assess commitment specificity in corporate biodiversity disclosures.

Training Data
The model was trained on a curated dataset of 2,000 manually annotated paragraphs extracted from sustainability reports of Fortune Global 500 companies

Performance Metrics
Evaluated using 5-fold cross-validation:
MetricScoreWeighted F10.856Weighted Precision0.857Weighted Recall0.856AUC-ROC0.922

Pipeline Recommendation
For optimal results, use this model in combination with our commitment detection model:

Stage 1: Identify biodiversity-related commitments
Stage 2: Classify commitment specificity (this model)
