• Title: Analysing Cyberbullying using Natural Language Processing by Understanding Jargon in Social Media
• Authors: Bhumika Bhatia, Anuj Verma, Anjum, Rahul Katarya
• Abstract summary: In our work, we explore binary classification by using a combination of datasets from various social media platforms. We experiment through multiple models such as Bi-LSTM, GloVe, state-of-the-art models like BERT, and apply a unique preprocessing technique by introducing a slang-abusive corpus.

• Abstract: Cyberbullying is of extreme prevalence today. Online-hate comments, toxicity, cyberbullying amongst children and other vulnerable groups are only growing over online classes, and increased access to social platforms, especially post COVID-19. It is paramount to detect and ensure minors' safety across social platforms so that any violence or hate-crime is automatically detected and strict action is taken against it. In our work, we explore binary classification by using a combination of datasets from various social media platforms that cover a wide range of cyberbullying such as sexism, racism, abusive, and hate-speech. We experiment through multiple models such as Bi-LSTM, GloVe, state-of-the-art models like BERT, and apply a unique preprocessing technique by introducing a slang-abusive corpus, achieving a higher precision in comparison to models without slang preprocessing.

  Online Social Networks serve as fertile ground for harmful behavior, ranging from hate speech to the dissemination of disinformation. We introduce the Style Transformer for Authorship Representations (STAR), trained on a large corpus derived from public sources of 4.5 x 106 authored texts. Using a support base of 8 documents of 512 tokens, we can discern authors from sets of up to 1616 authors with at least 80% accuracy.

• Addressing the Challenges of Cross-Lingual Hate Speech Detection [115.1352779982269]
  In this paper we focus on cross-lingual transfer learning to support hate speech detection in low-resource languages. We leverage cross-lingual word embeddings to train our neural network systems on the source language and apply it to the target language. We investigate the issue of label imbalance of hate speech datasets, since the high ratio of non-hate examples compared to hate examples often leads to low model performance.

• Sampling Attacks: Amplification of Membership Inference Attacks by Repeated Queries [74.59376038272661]
  We introduce sampling attack, a novel membership inference technique that unlike other standard membership adversaries is able to work under severe restriction of no access to scores of the victim model. We show that a victim model that only publishes the labels is still susceptible to sampling attacks and the adversary can recover up to 100% of its performance. For defense, we choose differential privacy in the form of gradient perturbation during the training of the victim model as well as output perturbation at prediction time.
