Fine-tuned an XLM-RoBERTa (base) — a multilingual transformer model to classify the Bangla Newspaper Headlines.
Achieved an accuracy of 88% and improved precision-recall balance for imbalanced datasets.
Compared performance against classical and neural baselines (Naïve Bayes, SVM, CNN, LSTM).
Collected 135,000 Bangla news headlines from open online sources (e.g., Prothom Alo, BDNews24, Jugantor).
