Model description
The Controversy Prediction model is a RoBERTa-base model trained of a dataset of news from the platform Menéame annotated with controversy tags in a community-based manner.
Intended uses and limitations
The Controversy Prediction model can be used for controversy prediction in news in Spanish.
How to use
Here is how to use this model:

Limitations and bias
At the time of submission, no measures have been taken to estimate the bias embedded in the model. However, we are well aware that our models may be biased since the corpora have been collected using crawling techniques on multiple web sources. We intend to conduct research in these areas in the future, and if completed, this model card will be updated.
Training
Training data
We use a dataset of news from the
Menéame platform, tagged with controversy labels in a community-based manner. The training set contains 18,270 news, from which 4,950 are controversial. The development set contains 1,058 news, from which 317 are controversial.
Training procedure
The model was trained with a batch size of 4 and a learning rate of 1e-5 for 5 epochs. We then selected the best checkpoint using the downstream task metric in the corresponding development set and then evaluated it on the test set.
Evaluation
Variable and metrics
This model was finetuned maximizing the weighted F1 score.
Evaluation results
We evaluated the Controversy-Prediction model on the Menéame test set obtaining a weighted F1 score of 84.72. The test set contains 1,058 news, from which 317 are controversial.
