bert-sentiment-classifier

This project applies BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) to classify movie reviews into Positive or Negative sentiment. It includes:

Data loading and EDA

Text preprocessing

BERT tokenization

Custom PyTorch dataset

Fine-tuning a pre-trained BERT model

Evaluation (Accuracy, F1-score, Confusion Matrix)

Plots saved in /plots folder

This is my first advanced NLP project, and it represents a key step in my growth from traditional Machine Learning to modern Deep Learning techniques used in real companies.

🧠 Dataset

The dataset contains 1000 movie reviews:

500 positive (1)

500 negative (0)

Each entry contains:

review: text content

sentiment: label

🔍 Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA)

The notebook includes:

✔ Class distribution

Balanced dataset (500/500).

✔ Text length analysis

Helps adjust tokenization settings.

Plots are saved automatically in the plots/ directory.

🤖 BERT Model

Model used:
