- 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.

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.

harmful content on online platforms comes in many different forms including hate speech, offensive language, bullying and harassment, misinformation, spam, violence, graphic content, sexual abuse, self harm, and many other.
Online platforms seek to moderate such content to limit societal harm, to comply with legislation, and to create a more inclusive environment for their users.
There is currently a dichotomy between what types of harmful content online platforms seek to curb, and what research efforts there are to automatically detect such content.
