ltl.uni-due at SemEval 2019 Task 5: Simple but Effective Lexico-Semantic Features for Detecting Hate Speech in Twitter

Zhang, Huangpan ; Wojatzki, Michael ; Horsmann, Tobias ; Zesch, Torsten

In this paper, we present our contribution to SemEval 2019 Task 5 Multilingual Detection of Hate, specifically in the Subtask A (English and Spanish). We compare different configurations of shallow and deep learning approaches on the English data and use the system that performs best in both sub-tasks. The resulting SVM-based system with lexico-semantic features (n-grams and embeddings) is ranked 23rd out of 69 on the English data and beats the baseline system. On the Spanish data our system is ranked 25th out of 39.
