  @InProceedings{pamungkas-basile-patti:2020:LREC, author = {Pamungkas, Endang Wahyu and Basile, Valerio and Patti, Viviana}, title = {Do You Really Want to Hurt Me? Predicting Abusive Swearing in Social Media}, booktitle = {Proceedings of The 12th Language Resources and Evaluation Conference}, month = {May}, year = {2020}, address = {Marseille, France}, publisher = {European Language Resources Association}, pages = {6237--6246}, abstract = {Swearing plays an ubiquitous role in everyday conversations among humans, both in oral and textual communication, and occurs frequently in social media texts, typically featured by informal language and spontaneous writing. Such occurrences can be linked to an abusive context, when they contribute to the expression of hatred and to the abusive effect, causing harm and offense. However, swearing is multifaceted and is often used in casual contexts, also with positive social functions. In this study, we explore the phenomenon of swearing in Twitter conversations, taking the possibility of predicting the abusiveness of a swear word in a tweet context as the main investigation perspective. We developed the Twitter English corpus SWAD (Swear Words Abusiveness Dataset), where abusive swearing is manually annotated at the word level. Our collection consists of 1,511 unique swear words from 1,320 tweets. We developed models to automatically predict abusive swearing, to provide an intrinsic evaluation of SWAD and confirm the robustness of the resource. We also present the results of a glass box ablation study in order to investigate which lexical, syntactic, and affective features are more informative towards the automatic prediction of the function of swearing.}, url = {https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/2020.lrec-1.765} }

Recent literature suggests various approaches to distinguish between different language phenomena (e.g., hate speech vs. cyberbullying vs. offensive language) and factors (degree of explicitness and target) that may help to classify different abusive language phenomena. There are data sets that annotate the target of abusive messages (i.e.OLID/OffensEval (Zampieri et al., 2019a)). However, there is a lack of data sets that take into account the degree of explicitness. In this paper, we propose annotation guidelines to distinguish between explicit and implicit abuse in English and apply them to OLID/OffensEval. The outcome is a newly created resource, AbuseEval v1.0, which aims to address some of the existing issues in the annotation of offensive and abusive language (e.g., explicitness of the message, presence of a target, need of context, and interaction across different phenomena).}, url = {https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/2020.lrec-1.760} }

In the present study, we examined associations between language use on Facebook and problematic alcohol use. We collected texts shared on Facebook by a sample of 296 adult social media users (66.9% females; mean age = 28.44 years (SD = 7.38)). Texts were mined using the closed-vocabulary approach based on the Linguistic Inquiry Word Count (LIWC) semantic dictionary, and an open-vocabulary approach performed via Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA). Then, we examined associations between emerging textual features and alcohol-drinking scores as assessed using the AUDIT-C questionnaire. As a final aim, we employed the Random Forest machine-learning algorithm to determine and compare the predictive accuracy of closed- and open-vocabulary features over users' AUDIT-C scores. We found use of words about family, school, and positive feelings and emotions to be negatively associated with alcohol use and problematic drinking, while words suggesting interest in sport events, politics and economics, nightlife, and use of coarse language were more frequent among problematic drinkers. Results coming from LIWC and LDA analyses were quite similar, but LDA added information that could not be retrieved only with LIWC analysis. Furthermore, open-vocabulary features outperformed closed-vocabulary features in terms of predictive power over participants’ AUDIT-C scores (r = .46 vs. r = .28, respectively). Emerging relationships between text features and offline behaviors may have important implications for alcohol screening purposes in the online environment."

Unfortunately, this has also resulted in the massive rise of uncensored online hate against vulnerable communities such as immigrants, LGBT and women. Current work on the automatic detection of various forms of hate speech (HS) typically employs supervised learning, requiring manually annotated data. The highly polarizing nature of the topics involved raises concerns about the quality of annotations these systems rely on, because not all the annotators are equally sensitive to different kinds of hate speech. We propose an approach to leverage the fine-grained knowledge expressed by individual annotators, before their subjectivity is averaged out by the gold standard creation process. This helps us to refine the quality of training sets for hate speech detection. We introduce a measure of polarization at the level of single instances in the data to manipulate the training set and reduce the impact of most polarizing text on the learning process.", isbn="978-3-030-35166-3" }
