Comparison Between Traditional Machine Learning Models And Neural Network Models For Vietnamese Hate Speech Detection

Abstract

Hate-speech detection on social network language has become one of the main researching fields recently due to the spreading of social networks like Facebook and Twitter. In Vietnam, the threat of offensive and harassment cause bad impacts for online user. The VLSP -Shared task about Hate Speech Detection on social networks showed many proposed approaches for detecting whatever comment is clean or not. However, this problem still needs further researching. Consequently, we compare traditional machine learning and deep learning on a large dataset about the user's comments on social network in Vietnamese and find out what is the advantage and disadvantage of each model by comparing their accuracy on F1score, then we pick two models in which has highest accuracy in traditional machine learning models and deep neural models respectively. Next, we compare these two models capable of predicting the right label by referencing their confusion matrices and considering the advantages and disadvantages of each model. Finally, from the comparison result, we propose our ensemble method that concentrates the abilities of traditional methods and deep learning methods.
