Enhancing Hindi Hate Speech Detection: Multilingual & Multimodal Deep Learning Solutions
摘要
The increased use of social media, hate speech poses significant challenges, especially in multilingual regions. This paper evaluates contemporary deep learning models—MuRIL, BERT, RoBERTa, IndicBERT, and XLM-RoBERTa—for Hindi hate speech classification using a dataset of 8,192 multicategorical posts. MuRIL and XLM-RoBERTa achieved F1-scores of 0.955 and 0.945, excelling in code-mixed Hindi-English contexts. The study underscores the need for larger, diverse datasets to enhance model generalization and discusses emerging trends in multilingual hate speech detection.
