💻 Usage Examples

Basic Usage

Classify emotions in short text inputs using the Hugging Face pipeline:

from transformers import pipeline

# Load the fine-tuned BERT-Emotion model
sentiment_analysis = pipeline("text-classification", model="boltuix/bert-emotion")

# Analyze emotion
result = sentiment_analysis("i love you")
print(result)

Output:

[{'label': 'Love', 'score': 0.8442274928092957}]

This indicates the emotion is Love ❤️ with 84.42% confidence.

Advanced Usage

Enhance the output with human - readable emotions and emojis:

from transformers import pipeline

# Load the fine-tuned BERT-Emotion model
sentiment_analysis = pipeline("text-classification", model="boltuix/bert-emotion")

# Define label-to-emoji mapping
label_to_emoji = {
    "Sadness": "😢",
    "Anger": "😠",
    "Love": "❤️",
    "Surprise": "😲",
    "Fear": "😱",
    "Happiness": "😄",
    "Neutral": "😐",
    "Disgust": "🤢",
    "Shame": "🙈",
    "Guilt": "😔",
    "Confusion": "😕",
    "Desire": "🔥",
    "Sarcasm": "😏"
}

# Input text
text = "i love you"

# Analyze emotion
result = sentiment_analysis(text)[0]
label = result["label"].capitalize()
emoji = label_to_emoji.get(label, "❓")

# Output
print(f"Text: {text}")
print(f"Predicted Emotion: {label} {emoji}")
print(f"Confidence: {result['score']:.2%}")

Output:

Text: i love you
Predicted Emotion: Love ❤️
Confidence: 84.42%

Note: Fine - tune the model for specific domains or additional emotion categories to improve accuracy.

Evaluation Metrics

Note: Metrics vary based on hardware (e.g., Raspberry Pi 4, Android devices) and fine - tuning. Test on your target device for accurate results.

Use Cases

BERT - Emotion is designed for edge and IoT scenarios requiring real - time emotion detection for short texts. Key applications include:

• Chatbot Emotion Understanding: Detect user emotions, e.g., “I love you” (predicts “Love ❤️”) to personalize responses.
• Social Media Sentiment Tagging: Analyze posts, e.g., “This is disgusting!” (predicts “Disgust 🤢”) for content moderation.
• Mental Health Context Detection: Monitor user mood, e.g., “I feel so alone” (predicts “Sadness 😢”) for wellness apps.
• Smart Replies and Reactions: Suggest replies based on emotions, e.g., “I’m so happy!” (predicts “Happiness 😄”) for positive emojis.
• Emotional Tone Analysis: Adjust IoT device settings, e.g., “I’m terrified!” (predicts “Fear 😱”) to dim lights for comfort.
• Voice Assistants: Local emotion - aware parsing, e.g., “Why does it break?” (predicts “Anger 😠”) to prioritize fixes.
• Toy Robotics: Emotion - driven interactions, e.g., “I really want that!” (predicts “Desire 🔥”) for engaging animations.
• Fitness Trackers: Analyze feedback, e.g., “Wait, what?” (predicts “Confusion 😕”) to clarify instructions.

Hardware Requirements

• Processors: CPUs, mobile NPUs, or microcontrollers (e.g., ESP32 - S3, Raspberry Pi 4)
• Storage: ~20MB for model weights (quantized, Safetensors format)
• Memory: ~60MB RAM for inference
• Environment: Offline or low - connectivity settings

Quantization ensures efficient memory usage, making it suitable for resource - constrained devices.

Trained On

• Custom Emotion Dataset: Curated short - text data with 13 labeled emotions (e.g., Happiness, Sadness, Love), sourced from custom datasets and chatgpt - datasets. Augmented with social media and IoT user feedback to enhance performance in chatbot, social media, and smart device contexts.

Fine - tuning on domain - specific data is recommended for optimal results.

Fine - Tuning Guide

To adapt BERT - Emotion for custom emotion detection tasks (e.g., specific chatbot or IoT interactions):

1. Prepare Dataset: Collect labeled data with 13 emotion categories.
2. Fine - Tune with Hugging Face:

    # !pip install transformers datasets torch --upgrade
   
    import torch
    from transformers import BertTokenizer, BertForSequenceClassification, Trainer, TrainingArguments
    from datasets import Dataset
    import pandas as pd
   
    # 1. Prepare the sample emotion dataset
    data = {
        "text": [
            "I love you so much!",
            "This is absolutely disgusting!",
            "I'm so happy with my new phone!",
            "Why does this always break?",
            "I feel so alone right now."
        ],
        "label": [2, 7, 5, 1, 0]  # Emotions: 0 to 12
    }
    df = pd.DataFrame(data)
    dataset = Dataset.from_pandas(df)
   
    # 2. Load tokenizer and model
    model_name = "boltuix/bert-emotion"
    tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
    model = BertForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained(model_name, num_labels=13)
   
    # 3. Tokenize the dataset
    def tokenize_function(examples):
        return tokenizer(examples["text"], padding="max_length", truncation=True, max_length=64)
   
    tokenized_dataset = dataset.map(tokenize_function, batched=True)
   
    # 4. Manually convert all fields to PyTorch tensors (NumPy 2.0 safe)
    def to_torch_format(example):
        return {
            "input_ids": torch.tensor(example["input_ids"]),
            "attention_mask": torch.tensor(example["attention_mask"]),
            "label": torch.tensor(example["label"])
        }
   
    tokenized_dataset = tokenized_dataset.map(to_torch_format)
   
    # 5. Define training arguments
    training_args = TrainingArguments(
        output_dir="./bert_emotion_results",
        num_train_epochs=5,
        per_device_train_batch_size=2,
        logging_dir="./bert_emotion_logs",
        logging_steps=10,
        save_steps=100,
        eval_strategy="no",
        learning_rate=3e-5,
        report_to="none"  # Disable W&B auto-logging if not needed
    )
   
    # 6. Initialize Trainer
    trainer = Trainer(
        model=model,
        args=training_args,
        train_dataset=tokenized_dataset,
    )
   
    # 7. Fine-tune the model
    trainer.train()
   
    # 8. Save the fine-tuned model
    model.save_pretrained("./fine_tuned_bert_emotion")
    tokenizer.save_pretrained("./fine_tuned_bert_emotion")
   
    # 9. Example inference
    text = "I'm thrilled with the update!"
    inputs = tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt", padding=True, truncation=True, max_length=64)
    model.eval()
    with torch.no_grad():
        outputs = model(**inputs)
        logits = outputs.logits
        predicted_class = torch.argmax(logits, dim=1).item()
   
    labels = ["Sadness", "Anger", "Love", "Surprise", "Fear", "Happiness", "Neutral", "Disgust", "Shame", "Guilt", "Confusion", "Desire", "Sarcasm"]
    print(f"Predicted emotion for '{text}': {labels[predicted_class]}")
   

3. Deploy: Export the fine - tuned model to ONNX or TensorFlow Lite for edge devices.
