Hatemoji Model
Model description
This model is a fine-tuned version of the DeBERTa base model. This model is cased. The model was trained on iterative rounds of adversarial data generation with human-and-model-in-the-loop. In each round, annotators are tasked with tricking the model-in-the-loop with emoji-containing statements that it will misclassify. Between each round, the model is retrained. This is the final model from the iterative process, referred to as R8-T in our paper. The intended task is to classify an emoji-containing statement as either non-hateful (LABEL 0.0) or hateful (LABEL 1.0).

Intended uses & limitations
The intended use of the model is to classify English-language, emoji-containing, short-form text documents as a binary task: non-hateful vs hateful. The model has demonstrated strengths compared to commercial and academic models on classifying emoji-based hate, but is also a strong classifier of text-only hate. Because the model was trained on synthetic, adversarially-generated data, it may have some weaknesses when it comes to empirical emoji-based hate 'in-the-wild'.
You can interact with this model on Dynabench, and find its limitations. We hope to continue improving the model on new adversarial data to better iron out its remaining weaknesses!
How to use
The model can be used with pipeline:
from transformers import pipeline
classifier = pipeline("text-classification",model='HannahRoseKirk/Hatemoji', return_all_scores=True)
prediction = classifier("I πππ emoji π", )
print(prediction)
"""
Output
[[{'label': 'LABEL_0', 'score': 0.9999157190322876}, {'label': 'LABEL_1', 'score': 8.425049600191414e-05}]]
"""
Training data
The model was trained on:
- The three rounds of emoji-containing, adversarially-generated texts from HatemojiBuild
- The four rounds of text-only, adversarially-generated texts from Vidgen et al., (2021). Learning from the worst: Dynamically generated datasets to improve online hate detection. Available on Github and explained in their paper.
- A collection of widely available and publicly accessible datasets from https://hatespeechdata.com/
Train procedure
The model was trained using HuggingFace's run glue script, using the following parameters:
python3 transformers/examples/pytorch/text-classification/run_glue.py \
--model_name_or_path microsoft/deberta-base \
--validation_file path_to_data/dev.csv \
--train_file path_to_data/train.csv \
--do_train --do_eval --max_seq_length 512 --learning_rate 2e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 3 --evaluation_strategy epoch \
--load_best_model_at_end --output_dir path_to_outdir/deberta123/ \
--seed 123 \
--cache_dir /.cache/huggingface/transformers/ \
--overwrite_output_dir > ./log_deb 2> ./err_deb
We experimented with upsampling the train split of each round to improve performance with increments of [1, 5, 10, 100], with the optimum upsampling taken
forward to all subsequent rounds. The optimal upsampling ratios for R1-R4 (text rounds from Vidgen et al.,) are carried forward. This model is trained on upsampling ratios of {'R0':1, 'R1':5, 'R2':100, 'R3':1, 'R4':1 , 'R5':100, 'R6':1, 'R7':5}
.
Variable and metrics
We wished to train a model which could effectively encode information about emoji-based hate, without worsening performance on text-only hate. Thus, we evaluate the model on:
- HatemojiCheck, an evaluation checklist with 7 functionalities of emoji-based hate and contrast sets
- HateCheck, an evaluation checklist contains 29 functional tests for hate speech and contrast sets.
- The held-out tests sets from HatemojiBuild the three round of adversarially-generated data collection with emoji-containing examples (R5-7). Available on Huuggingface
- The held-out test sets from the four rounds of adversarially-generated data collection with text-only examples (R1-4, from Vidgen et al.)
For the round-specific test sets, we used a weighted F1-score across them to choose the final model in each round. For more details, see our paper
