Model Card for SocRoBERTa-base

Model Description

Based on this paper, this is the SocRoBERTa-base language model. A language model that is trained to better understand social texts in the ESG domain.

Note: We generally recommend choosing the SocialBERT-base model since it is quicker, less resource-intensive and only marginally worse in performance.

Using the RoBERTa model as a starting point, the SocRoBERTa-base Language Model is additionally pre-trained on a text corpus comprising social-related annual reports, sustainability reports, and corporate and general news.
