LaSTUS/TALN at SemEval-2019 Task 6: Identification and Categorization of Offensive Language in Social Media with Attention-based Bi-LSTM model

摘要

This paper describes a bidirectional Long-Short Term Memory network for identifying offensive language in Twitter. Our system has been developed in the context of the SemEval 2019 Task 6 which comprises three different sub-tasks, namely A: Offensive Language Detection, B: Categorization of Offensive Language, C: Offensive Language Target Identification. We used a pre-trained Word Embeddings in tweet data, including information about emojis and hashtags. Our approach achieves good performance in the three sub-tasks.
