title: 'conflibertR: Inference and Fine-Tuning with ''ConfliBERT'' Conflict Text Models'
version: 0.5.3
doi: 10.18653/v1/2022.naacl-main.400
abstract: An interface to 'ConfliBERT', a pretrained language model for analyzing
  text about conflict and political violence (Hu et al. (2022) <https://doi.org/10.18653/v1/2022.naacl-main.400>).
  Provides functions for named entity recognition, binary and multilabel classification,
  and question answering, plus tools to fine-tune custom classifiers, compare several
  base model architectures, and run an interactive active-learning loop for efficiently
  labeling new data. Models are downloaded from 'Hugging Face' and run through the
  'transformers' library for 'Python' via the 'reticulate' package.
