• Abstract: In this paper, we investigate the issue of hate speech by presenting a novel task of translating hate speech into non-hate speech text while preserving its meaning. As a case study, we use Spanish texts. We provide a dataset and several baselines as a starting point for further research in the task. We evaluated our baseline results using multiple metrics, including BLEU scores. The aim of this study is to contribute to the development of more effective methods for reducing the spread of hate speech in online communities.

• Exploiting Hatred by Targets for Hate Speech Detection on Vietnamese Social Media Texts [0.0]
  We first introduce the ViTHSD - a targeted hate speech detection dataset for Vietnamese Social Media Texts. The dataset contains 10K comments, each comment is labeled to specific targets with three levels: clean, offensive, and hate. The inter-annotator agreement obtained from the dataset is 0.45 by Cohen's Kappa index, which is indicated as a moderate level.

• An Investigation of Large Language Models for Real-World Hate Speech Detection [46.15140831710683]
  A major limitation of existing methods is that hate speech detection is a highly contextual problem. Recently, large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in several natural language tasks. Our study reveals that a meticulously crafted reasoning prompt can effectively capture the context of hate speech.

  We present here a large-scale empirical comparison of deep and shallow hate-speech detection methods. Our goal is to illuminate progress in the area, and identify strengths and weaknesses in the current state-of-the-art. In doing so we aim to provide guidance as to the use of hate-speech detection in practice, quantify the state-of-the-art, and identify future research directions.

• 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.
