Model description

More information needed

Intended uses & limitations

A DistilBERT model is trained on an external dataset (Spanish Fake and Real News) to detect fake news in spanish.

Training and evaluation data

Dataset obtained from: https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/zulanac/fake-and-real-news, under a CC BY-SA 4.0 license. Author: Fabricio A. Zules. <p>For compatibility reasons with the model, it was necessary to change 'texto' and 'clase' headers to 'text' and 'label'; and 'fake' and 'true' values (from class/label), were replaced by '0' and '1' values.</p>
