# EmCoder
<blockquote>
  <b>Probabilistic Emotion Recognition & Uncertainty Quantification</b><br>
  <b>28 Emotion multi-label classifier trained with MC Dropout methodology</b>
</blockquote>


Unlike standard classifiers, EmCoder quantifies what it doesn't know using Monte Carlo Dropout, making it suitable for high-stakes AI pipelines.<br>
EmCoder is optimized for **MC Dropout inference**.



## SOTA benchmark
### Evaluation on the GoEmotions test split (macro avg metrics)
EmCoder achieves competitive F1-scores while being ~35% smaller than RoBERTa-base and ~45% smaller than ModernBERT, offering a superior efficiency-to-uncertainty ratio.
| Model | Precision | Recall | F1-Score | Params |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **EmCoder (v1)** | **0.408** | **0.495** | **0.440** | **82.1M** |
| Google BERT (Original) | 0.400 | 0.630 | 0.460 | 110M |
| RoBERTa-base | 0.575 | 0.396 | 0.450 | 125M |
| ModernBERT-base | 0.652 | 0.443 | 0.500 | 149M |


## How to use
Since `.safetensors` files only store model weights and not the class logic, you need to use the provided `emcoder.py` to enable **MC Dropout inference**.<br>EmCoder v1.0 requires the `roberta-base` tokenizer for correct token-to-embedding mapping.
### 1. Setup & Tokenization
Install dependencies
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Setup EmCoder
```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
from emcoder import EmCoder # Ensure emcoder.py is in your directory

repo_id = "yezdata/EmCoder"
model_dir = snapshot_download(repo_id=repo_id)
print(model_dir)

# Load the same tokenizer used during training
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_dir)

# Initialize with same config as training
model = EmCoder.from_pretrained(model_dir)
```
### 2. Bayesian inference
To obtain probabilistic outputs and uncertainty metrics, use the `mc_forward` method:
```python
import torch

# Perform 50 stochastic passes
N_SAMPLES = 50
model.eval()

inputs = tokenizer("I am so happy you are here!", return_tensors="pt")
logits_mc = model.mc_forward(inputs['input_ids'], inputs['attention_mask'], n_samples=N_SAMPLES) # Automatically keeps Dropout active, even when in model.eval

# Bayesian Post-processing
probs_all = torch.sigmoid(logits_mc) # (n_samples, B, 28)

mean_probs = probs_all.mean(dim=0) # Mean Predicted Probability
uncertainty = probs_all.std(dim=0) # Epistemic Uncertainty (Standard Deviation)


# Formatted Output
m_probs = mean_probs.squeeze(0)
u_vals = uncertainty.squeeze(0)

print(f"{'Emotion':<15} | {'Prob':<10} | {'Uncertainty':<10}")
print("-" * 40)

sorted_indices = torch.argsort(m_probs, descending=True)

for idx in sorted_indices:
    prob, unc = m_probs[idx].item(), u_vals[idx].item()
    label = model.config.id2label[idx.item()]
    
    if prob > 0.05: # Print only emotions with prob > 5% (optional for clarity)
        print(f"{label:<15} | {prob:>8.2%} | ±{unc:>8.4f}")
```


## Model Architecture
![EmCoder Architecture](outputs/architecture.png)


### Optimization
The model is trained using a Weighted Bayesian Binary Cross Entropy loss:

$$
\mathcal{L}_{Bayesian} = \frac{1}{T} \sum_{t=1}^{T} \text{BCEWithLogits}(z^{(t)}, y; w)
$$

Where weights $w$ are calculated using a logarithmic class-balancing scale to handle extreme label imbalance:

$$
w_{c} = \max\left( 0.1, \min\left( 20, 1 + \ln \left( \frac{N_{neg,c} + \epsilon}{N_{pos,c} + \epsilon} \right) \right) \right)
$$
