# xlm-roberta-large-pooled-cap
## Model description
An `xlm-roberta-large` benchmark model finetuned on training data containing texts labelled with [major topic codes](https://www.comparativeagendas.net/pages/master-codebook) from the [Comparative Agendas Project](https://www.comparativeagendas.net/).

## How to use the model

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, pipeline

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("xlm-roberta-large")
pipe = pipeline(
    model="poltextlab/xlm-roberta-large-pooled-cap",
    task="text-classification",
    tokenizer=tokenizer,
    use_fast=False,
    token="<your_hf_read_only_token>"
)

text = "We will place an immediate 6-month halt on the finance driven closure of beds and wards, and set up an independent audit of needs and facilities."
pipe(text)
```

### Gated access
Due to the gated access, you must pass the `token` parameter when loading the model. In earlier versions of the Transformers package, you may need to use the `use_auth_token` parameter instead.
