KIT-TIP-NLP at MultiPride: Continual Learning with Multilingual Foundation Model

This paper presents a multi-stage framework for detecting reclaimed slurs in multilingual social media discourse. It addresses the challenge of identifying reclamatory versus non-reclamatory usage of LGBTQ+-related slurs across English, Spanish, and Italian tweets. The framework handles three intertwined methodological challenges like data scarcity, class imbalance, and cross-linguistic variation in sentiment expression. It integrates data-driven model selection via cross-validation, semantic-preserving augmentation through back-translation, inductive transfer learning with dynamic epoch-level undersampling, and domain-specific knowledge injection via masked language modeling. Eight multilingual embedding models were evaluated systematically, with XLM-RoBERTa selected as the foundation model based on macro-averaged F1 score. Data augmentation via GPT-4o-mini back-translation to alternate languages effectively tripled the training corpus while preserving semantic content and class distribution ratios. The framework produces four final runs for the evaluation purposes where RUN 1 is inductive transfer learning with augmentation and undersampling, RUN 2 with masked language modeling pre-training, RUN 3 and RUN 4 are previous predictions refined via language-specific decision thresholds optimized via ROC analysis. Language-specific threshold refinement reveals that optimal decision boundaries vary significantly across languages. This reflects distributional differences in model confidence scores and linguistic variation in reclamatory language usage. The threshold-based optimization yields 2-5% absolute F1 improvement without requiring model retraining. The methodology is fully reproducible, with all code and experimental setup available at https://github.com/rbg-research/MultiPRIDE-Evalita-2026.

Comparing Performance of Different Linguistically-Backed Word Embeddings for Cyberbullying Detection

In most cases, word embeddings are learned only from raw tokens or in some cases, lemmas. This includes pre-trained language models like BERT. To investigate on the potential of capturing deeper relations between lexical items and structures and to filter out redundant information, we propose to preserve the morphological, syntactic and other types of linguistic information by combining them with the raw tokens or lemmas. This means, for example, including parts-of-speech or dependency information within the used lexical features. The word embeddings can then be trained on the combinations instead of just raw tokens. It is also possible to later apply this method to the pre-training of huge language models and possibly enhance their performance. This would aid in tackling problems which are more sophisticated from the point of view of linguistic representation, such as detection of cyberbullying.

Exploring the Potential of Feature Density in Estimating Machine Learning Classifier Performance with Application to Cyberbullying Detection

In this research. we analyze the potential of Feature Density (HD) as a way to comparatively estimate machine learning (ML) classifier performance prior to training. The goal of the study is to aid in solving the problem of resource-intensive training of ML models which is becoming a serious issue due to continuously increasing dataset sizes and the ever rising popularity of Deep Neural Networks (DNN). The issue of constantly increasing demands for more powerful computational resources is also affecting the environment, as training large-scale ML models are causing alarmingly-growing amounts of CO2, emissions. Our approach 1s to optimize the resource-intensive training of ML models for Natural Language Processing to reduce the number of required experiments iterations. We expand on previous attempts on improving classifier training efficiency with FD while also providing an insight to the effectiveness of various linguistically-backed feature preprocessing methods for dialog classification, specifically cyberbullying detection.

Initial Study into Application of Feature Density and Linguistically-backed Embedding to Improve Machine Learning-based Cyberbullying Detection

In this research, we study the change in the performance of machine learning (ML) classifiers when various linguistic preprocessing methods of a dataset were used, with the specific focus on linguistically-backed embeddings in Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). Moreover, we study the concept of Feature Density and confirm its potential to comparatively predict the performance of ML classifiers, including CNN. The research was conducted on a Formspring dataset provided in a Kaggle competition on automatic cyberbullying detection. The dataset was re-annotated by objective experts (psychologists), as the importance of professional annotation in cyberbullying research has been indicated multiple times. The study confirmed the effectiveness of Neural Networks in cyberbullying detection and the correlation between classifier performance and Feature Density while also proposing a new approach of training various linguistically-backed embeddings for Convolutional Neural Networks.

Transfer Language Selection for Zero-Shot Cross-Lingual Abusive Language Detection

We study the selection of transfer languages for automatic abusive language detection. Instead of preparing a dataset for every language, we demonstrate the effectiveness of cross-lingual transfer learning for zero-shot abusive language detection. This way we can use existing data from higher-resource languages to build better detection systems for low-resource languages. Our datasets are from seven different languages from three language families. We measure the distance between the languages using several language similarity measures, especially by quantifying the World Atlas of Language Structures. We show that there is a correlation between linguistic similarity and classifier performance. This discovery allows us to choose an optimal transfer language for zero shot abusive language detection.
