+## Architecture
+
+### Translation Transformer Model
+
+The English-to-French translation system implements a **Transformer architecture built from scratch**. Rather than using pre-trained models or high-level APIs, this implementation provides full control over each component, from multi-head attention mechanisms to positional encodings.

+
+### Sentiment Analysis Model
+
+The sentiment classifier uses a Bidirectional LSTM architecture:
+- Embedding layer for word representations
+- Bidirectional LSTM layers for capturing context from both directions
+- Dense layers with dropout for classification
+- Binary output (positive/negative sentiment)

-## Note on Models
+## Performance
+
+Current model performance on test datasets:
 
-The sentiment analysis and translation models included in this repository are **toy models** designed for demonstration purposes. They may not achieve production-level accuracy and are intended for educational and exploratory use.
+| Model | Metric | Score |
+|-------|--------|-------|
+| Sentiment Analysis (BiLSTM) | Test Accuracy | 95.00% |
+| Translation (Transformer) | Test Accuracy | 67.26% |
+| Translation (Transformer) | BLEU Score | 0.52 |
+
+**Note on Model Status**: These models were **built from scratch as educational implementations** of the underlying architectures. The Transformer implementation provides a complete, working example of the attention mechanism without relying on pre-trained models or high-level abstractions. While they demonstrate solid understanding of these architectures, they are not optimized for production deployment. For production use, consider:
+- Training on larger datasets (millions of examples)
+- Increasing model capacity (more layers, larger dimensions)
+- Extended training duration with learning rate scheduling
+- Ensemble methods and model distillation
