We, at first, pre-trainlanguage representation models using these strategies and then fine-tune them onthe downstream task. Experimental results on a time-balanced tweet evaluation setshow the improvement over the previous technique. We achieve 76% accuracy forsentiment analysis on Latvian tweets, which is a substantial improvement over pre-vious work
