Fine-tuned DistilBERT for binary depression classification from social media text (Twitter + Reddit).

Trained as part of the ExplainDepression Pipeline — a research system for explainable and fair depression detection using SHAP attributions, Depression Explanation Score (DES), and Explanation Consistency Index across Demographics (ECID).
