• Abstract: The outbreak COVID-19 virus caused a significant impact on the health of people all over the world. Therefore, it is essential to have a piece of constant and accurate information about the disease with everyone. This paper describes our prediction system for WNUT-2020 Task 2: Identification of Informative COVID-19 English Tweets. The dataset for this task contains size 10,000 tweets in English labeled by humans. The ensemble model from our three transformer and deep learning models is used for the final prediction. The experimental result indicates that we have achieved F1 for the INFORMATIVE label on our systems at 88.81% on the test set.

  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.

  Research on COVID-19 misinformation detection in Indonesia is still scarce. In this study, we propose the two-stage classifier model using IndoBERT pre-trained language model for the Tweet misinformation detection task. The experimental results show that the combination of the BERT sequence classifier for relevance prediction and Bi-LSTM for misinformation detection outperformed other machine learning models with an accuracy of 87.02%.

  We collect a moderate-sized representative corpus of tweets (200,000 approx.) pertaining to Covid-19 vaccination over a period of seven months (September 2020 - March 2021) Following a Transfer Learning approach, we utilize the pre-trained Transformer-based XLNet model to classify tweets as Misleading or Non-Misleading. We build on this to study and contrast the characteristics of tweets in the corpus that are misleading in nature against non-misleading ones. Several ML models are employed for prediction, with up to 90% accuracy, and the importance of each feature is explained using SHAP Explainable AI (X
