+# DistilBERT Football Sentiment — Positive vs Negative
+
+## Purpose
+Fine-tune a compact transformer (DistilBERT) to classify short football-related comments as **positive (1)** or **negative (0)**. This supports a course assignment on text modeling and evaluation.
+
+## Dataset
+- **Source:** `james-kramer/football_news` on Hugging Face.
+- **Schema:** `text` (string), `label` (0/1).
+- **Task:** Binary sentiment classification (`0=negative`, `1=positive`).
+- **Splits:** Stratified **80/10/10** (train/val/test) created in this notebook.
+- **Cleaning:** Strip text, drop empty/NA rows.
+
+## Preprocessing
+- **Tokenizer:** `distilbert-base-uncased` (uncased), `max_length=256`, truncation.
+- **Label mapping:** `{0: "negative", 1: "positive"}`.
+
+## Training Setup
+- **Base model:** `distilbert-base-uncased`
+- **Epochs:** 5
+- **Batch size:** 16
+- **Learning rate:** 3e-05
+- **Weight decay:** 0.01
+- **Warmup ratio:** 0.1
+- **Early stopping:** patience = 2 (monitor F1 on validation)
+- **Seed:** 42
+- **Hardware:** Google Colab (GPU)
+
+## Metrics (Held-out Test)
+```json
+{
+  "eval_loss": 0.0029852271545678377,
+  "eval_accuracy": 1.0,
+  "eval_precision": 1.0,
+  "eval_recall": 1.0,
+  "eval_f1": 1.0,
+  "eval_runtime": 0.3123,
+  "eval_samples_per_second": 352.273,
+  "eval_steps_per_second": 22.417,
+  "epoch": 4.0
+}
+```
+
+## Confusion Matrix & Errors
+The Colab notebook includes a confusion matrix for validation and test, plus a short error analysis with example misclassifications and hypotheses (e.g., injury news phrased neutrally but labeled negative).
+|           | Pred 0 | Pred 1 |
+|-----------|-------:|-------:|
+| **True 0**|   55   |   0    |
+| **True 1**|   0    |   55   |
+
+## Brief Error Analysis (Concrete Examples & Hypotheses)
+No misclassifications were observed in the held-out test split (confusion matrix = perfect).  
+However, given the very small dataset size (~30 examples), this likely reflects **overfitting** rather than true robustness. 
+
+## Limitations & Ethics
+- Dataset size and labeling style can lead to unstable metrics; neutral/ambiguous tone is hard.
+- Sports injury and team-management news may bias wording and labels.
+- For coursework only; not for production or sensitive decisions.
+
+## Reproducibility
+- Python: 3.12
+- Transformers: >=4.41
+- Datasets: >=2.19
+- Seed: 42

+## License
+- Code & weights: MIT (adjust per course guidelines)
+- Dataset: see the original dataset's license/terms

+## AI Assistance Disclosure
+- GenAI tools assisted with notebook structure and documentation; modeling choices and evaluation were implemented and verified by the author.
