Cyberbullying detection in student texts with NLP

The challenge

A university needed to analyze texts written by students to predict their involvement in cyberbullying situations and each one's role.

What we did

We trained language models with fine-tuning on the texts and, on top of their outputs, applied a classic classification layer with voting (ensemble) to predict involvement in cyberbullying and the role: cyberbully, cybervictim or cyberbystander.

Technologies

Python · PyTorch · Transformers · Fine-tuning · NLP · Ensemble

Result

Automatic classification of the role in cyberbullying situations, supporting research and early detection.

They understood our research problem and gave us a reliable model to identify the roles; real support to detect cyberbullying in time.
