Insincere Question Classification by Deep Neural Networks

Abstract

People nowadays search for answering the questions on Q&A platforms online such as Zhihu and Quora. As many rely on these platforms, filtering controversial questions, including but not limited to hate speeches and online racism, is particularly important. While human resources are too scarce, using Artificial Intelligence to filter out some disputable and insulting questions is essential. In this work, we propose a deep learning-based classification method to analyze the sincerity of questions from Quora and achieve an overall 95.25% accuracy.
