# Mistral 7B - Fine-Tuned for Hate Speech Detection

<!-- Provide a quick summary of what the model is/does. -->

This repository hosts a fine-tuned version of the Mistral 7B (mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3) language model for hate speech detection. The base model has been fine-tuned on a curated dataset containing various forms of toxic, offensive, and hateful language across online platforms to make it suitable for detecting and classifying hate speech.

## Model Details

### Model Description

<!-- Provide a longer summary of what this model is. -->



- **Base Model:** Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3
- **Fine-Tuned For:** Hate Speech Detection
- **Architecture:** Decoder-only transformer
- **Language(s) (NLP):** English
- **License:** Apache 2.0

### Training Data

<!-- Provide the basic links for the model. -->
The model was fine-tuned using a binary labeled dataset of online texts including:

- Hateful, abusive, or toxic language
- Neutral or non-toxic examples for balance

## Uses

This model can be used to detect hate speech content online.
It can be also used to be fine-tuned on more hate speech dataset.


## How to Get Started with the Model

#### Preprocessing [optional]

If the data used for testing the model is collected from social media it is better to clean it by removing URLs, hashtags, mentions, and emojis.

#### Load the Model and test

```py
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM, pipeline

model_name = "hugsanaa/HatespeechLLM"

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name)

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name,

                                          )
tokenizer.pad_token = tokenizer.eos_token

                model=model,
                tokenizer=tokenizer,
                max_new_tokens=10,
                temperature=0.0
               )
