# Danish BERT for hate speech (offensive language) detection

The BERT HateSpeech model detects whether a Danish text is offensive or not. 
It is based on the pretrained [Danish BERT](https://github.com/certainlyio/nordic_bert) model by BotXO which has been fine-tuned on social media data. 

See the [DaNLP documentation](https://danlp-alexandra.readthedocs.io/en/latest/docs/tasks/hatespeech.html#bertdr) for more details. 


Here is how to use the model:

```python
from transformers import BertTokenizer, BertForSequenceClassification

model = BertForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("DaNLP/da-bert-hatespeech-detection")
tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("DaNLP/da-bert-hatespeech-detection")
```

## Training data

The data used for training has not been made publicly available. It consists of social media data manually annotated in collaboration with Danmarks Radio.
