Detecting Aggression and Toxicity using a Multi Dimension Capsule Network

WS 2019  ·  Saurabh Srivastava, Prerna Khurana ·

In the era of social media, hate speech, trolling and verbal abuse have become a common issue. We present an approach to automatically classify such statements, using a new deep learning architecture. Our model comprises of a Multi Dimension Capsule Network that generates the representation of sentences which we use for classification. We further provide an analysis of our model{'}s interpretation of such statements. We compare the results of our model with state-of-art classification algorithms and demonstrate our model{'}s ability. It also has the capability to handle comments that are written in both Hindi and English, which are provided in the TRAC dataset. We also compare results on Kaggle{'}s Toxic comment classification dataset.
