Voice@SRIB at SemEval-2020 Task 9 and 12: Stacked Ensembling method for Sentiment and Offensiveness detection in Social Media

원문 초록

In social-media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, and Reddit, people prefer to use code-mixed language such as Spanish-English, Hindi-English to express their opinions. In this paper, we describe different models we used, using the external dataset to train embeddings, ensembling methods for Sentimix, and OffensEval tasks. The use of pre-trained embeddings usually helps in multiple tasks such as sentence classification, and machine translation. In this experiment, we haveused our trained code-mixed embeddings and twitter pre-trained embeddings to SemEval tasks. We evaluate our models on macro F1-score, precision, accuracy, and recall on the datasets. We intend to show that hyper-parameter tuning and data pre-processing steps help a lot in improving the scores. In our experiments, we are able to achieve 0.886 F1-Macro on OffenEval Greek language subtask post-evaluation, whereas the highest is 0.852 during the Evaluation Period. We stood third in Spanglish competition with our best F1-score of 0.756. Codalab username is asking28.
