Text classification model based on EMBEDDIA/sloberta and fine-tuned on the FRENK dataset comprising of LGBT and migrant hatespeech. Only the slovenian subset of the data was used for fine-tuning and the dataset has been relabeled for binary classification (offensive or acceptable).
Fine-tuning hyperparameters
Fine-tuning was performed with simpletransformers. Beforehand a brief hyperparameter optimisation was performed and the presumed optimal hyperparameters are:
The same pipeline was run with two other transformer models and fasttext for comparison. Accuracy and macro F1 score were recorded for each of the 6 fine-tuning sessions and post festum analyzed.
