Hate speech detection. Unfortunately, hateful content is widespread across the web, and it’s hard to detect it without automatic tools. We have developed general-purpose models for hate speech detection, including to classify according to the target community.

Topic classification. With a topic taxonomy tailored for social media, we release datasets and multilingual models for topic classification. With these models, you can filter or analyse content related to specific topics such as sports, science, news, music and 15 others.

Sentiment analysis. Since sentiment analysis is one of the most popular tasks when it comes to social media, we’ve created a separate collection with some of our popular sentiment-related resources, including multilingual models and a unified benchmark for 8 languages 🌍

Sensitive content. In social media we can find sensitive content such as hate speech, conflictual language, drug and sexual-related content, profanity, self-harm or spam. We release a dataset with these categories and models so you can customise your sensitive filters.

SuperTweetEval. This collection contains a benchmark with challenging datasets for NLP tasks in social media such as question answering, topic-based sentiment analysis, emoji prediction or tweet similarity. In addition to the datasets, we release custom models for each task.

Reviewing PhD applications, it's impressive the level of the candidates: experience in industry, skills, high-quality papers including top confs...

Before even interviewing them, I already feel bad as we can offer one PhD scholarship only 😥 I would be more than happy to supervise many of them!
