**General Information**

This is a `bert-base-cased`, binary classification model, fine-tuned to classify a given sentence as containing advertising content or not. It leverages previous-sentence context to make more accurate predictions.
The model is used in the paper 'Leveraging multimodal content for podcast summarization' published at ACM SAC 2022.

**Usage:**

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification, AutoTokenizer
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained('morenolq/spotify-podcast-advertising-classification')
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('morenolq/spotify-podcast-advertising-classification')

desc_sentences = ["Sentence 1", "Sentence 2", "Sentence 3"]
for i, s in enumerate(desc_sentences): 
    if i==0:
        context = "__START__"
    else:
        context = desc_sentences[i-1] 
    out = tokenizer(context, text, padding = "max_length",
                        max_length = 256,
                        truncation=True,
                        return_attention_mask=True,
                        return_tensors = 'pt')
    outputs = model(**out)
    print (f"{s},{outputs}")
```

The manually annotated data, used for model fine-tuning are available [here](https://github.com/MorenoLaQuatra/MATeR/blob/main/description_sentences_classification.tsv)

Hereafter is the classification report of the model evaluation on the test split:
