Rule Out

Social media has changed the people mindset to express thoughts and moods. As the activity of social media users increases, it does not rule out the possibility of crimes of spreading hate speech can spread quickly and widely. So that it is not possible to detect hate speech manually. GRU is one of the deep learning methods that has the ability to learn information relations from the previous time to the present time. In this research feature extraction used is word2vec, because it has the ability to learn semantics between words. In this research the GRU performance will be compared with other supervision methods such as support vector machine, naive bayes, decision tree and logistic regression. The results obtained show that the best accuracy is 92.96% by the GRU model with word2vec feature extraction. The use of word2vec in the comparison supervision method is not good enough from tf and tf-idf.

Machine Learning Models

Social media services make it possible for an increasing number of people to express their opinion publicly. In this context, large amounts of hateful comments are published daily. The PHARM project aims at monitoring and modeling hate speech against refugees and migrants in Greece, Italy, and Spain. In this direction, a web interface for the creation and the query of a multi-source database containing hate speech-related content is implemented and evaluated. The selected sources include Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook comments and posts, as well as comments and articles from a selected list of websites. The interface allows users to search in the existing database, scrape social media using keywords, annotate records through a dedicated platform and contribute new content to the database. Furthermore, the functionality for hate speech detection and sentiment analysis of texts is provided, making use of novel methods and machine learning models. The interface can be accessed online with a graphical user interface compatible with modern internet browsers. For the evaluation of the interface, a multifactor questionnaire was formulated, targeting to record the users’ opinions about the web interface and the corresponding functionality.

Affective Dimensions

AbstractHate speech is an important problem in the management of user-generated content. To remove offensive content or ban misbehaving users, content moderators need reliable hate speech detectors. Recently, deep neural networks based on the transformer architecture, such as the (multilingual) BERT model, have achieved superior performance in many natural language classification tasks, including hate speech detection. So far, these methods have not been able to quantify their output in terms of reliability. We propose a Bayesian method using Monte Carlo dropout within the attention layers of the transformer models to provide well-calibrated reliability estimates. We evaluate and visualize the results of the proposed approach on hate speech detection problems in several languages. Additionally, we test whether affective dimensions can enhance the information extracted by the BERT model in hate speech classification. Our experiments show that Monte Carlo dropout provides a viable mechanism for reliability estimation in transformer networks. Used within the BERT model, it offers state-of-the-art classification performance and can detect less trusted predictions.
