Abstract
In the ever-evolving landscape of online discourse and political dialogue, the rise of hate speech poses a significant challenge to maintaining a respectful and inclusive digital environment. The context becomes particularly complex when considering the Hindi language—a low-resource language with limited available data. To address this pressing concern, we introduce the
CHUNAV
dataset—a collection of 11,457 Hindi tweets gathered during assembly elections in various states.
CHUNAV
is purpose-built for hate speech categorization and the identification of target groups. The dataset is a valuable resource for exploring hate speech within the distinctive socio-political context of Indian elections. The tweets within
CHUNAV
have been meticulously categorized into “Hate” and “Non-Hate” labels, and further subdivided to pinpoint the specific targets of hate speech, including “Individual”, “Organization”, and “Community” labels (as shown in Figure 1). Furthermore, this paper presents multiple benchmark models for hate speech detection, along with an innovative ensemble and oversampling-based method. The paper also delves into the results of topic modeling, all aimed at effectively addressing hate speech and target identification in the Hindi language. This contribution seeks to advance the field of hate speech analysis and foster a safer and more inclusive online space within the distinctive realm of Indian Assembly Elections.
期刊介绍：
The ACM Transactions on Asian and Low-Resource Language Information Processing (TALLIP) publishes high quality original archival papers and technical notes in the areas of computation and processing of information in Asian languages, low-resource languages of Africa, Australasia, Oceania and the Americas, as well as related disciplines. The subject areas covered by TALLIP include, but are not limited to:
-Computational Linguistics: including computational phonology, computational morphology, computational syntax (e.g. parsing), computational semantics, computational pragmatics, etc.
-Linguistic Resources: including computational lexicography, terminology, electronic dictionaries, cross-lingual dictionaries, electronic thesauri, etc.
-Hardware and software algorithms and tools for Asian or low-resource language processing, e.g., handwritten character recognition.
-Information Understanding: including text understanding, speech understanding, character recognition, discourse processing, dialogue systems, etc.
-Machine Translation involving Asian or low-resource languages.
-Information Retrieval: including natural language processing (NLP) for concept-based indexing, natural language query interfaces, semantic relevance judgments, etc.
-Information Extraction and Filtering: including automatic abstraction, user profiling, etc.
-Speech processing: including text-to-speech synthesis and automatic speech recognition.
-Multimedia Asian Information Processing: including speech, image, video, image/text translation, etc.
-Cross-lingual information processing involving Asian or low-resource languages.
-Papers that deal in theory, systems design, evaluation and applications in the aforesaid subjects are appropriate for TALLIP. Emphasis will be placed on the originality and the practical significance of the reported research.
