Cyberbullying Detection using Pre-Trained BERT Model
Abstract
Cyberbullying is spread across various social media platforms. It is a wrong deed in which the victim is harassed by receiving the derogatory / provocative / sensitive images or text messages by the bully. Detection of such message/post in such large platforms is very difficult and may sometimes lead to false detection. Recently, deep neural network based models have shown significant improvement over traditional models in detecting cyberbullying. Also, new and more complex deep learning architectures are being developed which are proving to be useful in various NLP tasks. Google researchers has recently developed a language learning model called BERT, which is capable of generating contextual embeddings and is also able to produce task specific embeddings for classification. A new approach is proposed to cyberbullying detection in social media platforms by using the novel pre-trained BERT model with a single linear neural network layer on top as a classifier, which improves over the existing results. The model is trained and evaluated on two social media datasets of which one dataset is small size and the second dataset is relatively larger size.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
