This fact-checking assistant is built as part of an NLP coursework project.
It uses transformer models fine-tuned on FEVER and LIAR datasets to assess the
factuality of claims. The models are deployed on Hugging Face and integrated
into this Streamlit application.
**Technologies used:**
- Transformers (DistilBERT, RoBERTa, DeBERTa)
- PyTorch
- Hugging Face
- Streamlit
