• Title: Duluth at SemEval-2019 Task 6: Lexical Approaches to Identify and Categorize Offensive Tweets
• Authors: Ted Pedersen
• Abstract summary: This paper describes the systems that participated in SemEval- 2019 Task 6, Identifying and Categorizing Offensive Language in Social Media (OffensEval) For the most part these systems took traditional Machine Learning approaches that built classifiers from lexical features found in manually labeled training data. Our best systems in each of the three OffensEval tasks placed in the middle of the comparative evaluation, ranking 57th of 103 in task A, 39th of 75 in task B, and 44th of 65 in task C.

• Abstract: This paper describes the Duluth systems that participated in SemEval--2019 Task 6, Identifying and Categorizing Offensive Language in Social Media (OffensEval). For the most part these systems took traditional Machine Learning approaches that built classifiers from lexical features found in manually labeled training data. However, our most successful system for classifying a tweet as offensive (or not) was a rule-based black--list approach, and we also experimented with combining the training data from two different but related SemEval tasks. Our best systems in each of the three OffensEval tasks placed in the middle of the comparative evaluation, ranking 57th of 103 in task A, 39th of 75 in task B, and 44th of 65 in task C.

  This paper describes our participation in Task 3 and Task 5 of the #SMM4H (Social Media Mining for Health) 2024 Workshop. Task 3 is a multi-class classification task centered on tweets discussing the impact of outdoor environments on symptoms of social anxiety. Task 5 involves a binary classification task focusing on tweets reporting medical disorders in children. We applied transfer learning from pre-trained encoder-decoder models such as BART-base and T5-small to identify the labels of a set of given tweets.

  This paper presents the results of the SHROOM, a shared task focused on detecting hallucinations. We observe a number of key trends in how this approach was tackled. While a majority of the teams did outperform our proposed baseline system, the performances of top-scoring systems are still consistent with a random handling of the more challenging items.

• Distant finetuning with discourse relations for stance classification [55.131676584455306]
  We propose a new method to extract data with silver labels from raw text to finetune a model for stance classification. We also propose a 3-stage training framework where the noisy level in the data used for finetuning decreases over different stages. Our approach ranks 1st among 26 competing teams in the stance classification track of the NLPCC 2021 shared task Argumentative Text Understanding for AI Debater.

  This paper describes the systems that participated in Duluth SemEval--2020 Task 12, Multilingual Offensive Language Identification in Social Media (OffensEval--2020). We trained our models on the distantly supervised training data made available by the task organizers and used no other resources. As might be expected we did not rank highly in the comparative evaluation: 79th of 85 in Task A, 34th of 43 in Task B, and 24th of 39 in Task C.
