AbstractOur contribution to the 2023 AfriSenti-SemEval shared task 12: Sentiment Analysis for African Languages, provides insight into how a multilingual large language model can be a resource for sentiment analysis in languages not seen during pretraining. The shared task provides datasets of a variety of African languages from different language …...

AbstractIn this paper we present and discuss the results achieved by the “Augustine of Hippo” team at SemEval-2023 Task 4 about human value detection. In particular, we provide a quantitative and qualitative reviews of the results obtained by SuperASKE, discussing respectively performance metrics and classification errors. Finally, we present our …...

AbstractThis paper describes the participation of the UMUTeam in the Learning With Disagreements (Le-Wi-Di) shared task proposed at SemEval 2023, which objective is the development of supervised automatic classifiers that consider, during training, the agreements and disagreements among the annotators of the datasets. Specifically, this edition includes a multilingual dataset. …...

AbstractIn this paper, we describe our approach to the clickbait spoiling task of SemEval 2023.The core idea behind our system is to leverage pre-trained models capable of Question Answering (QA) to extract the spoiler from article texts based on the clickbait title without any task-specific training. Since oftentimes, these titles …...

AbstractThis paper presents a study on the effectiveness of various approaches for addressing the challenge of multilingual sentiment analysis in low-resource African languages. . The approaches evaluated in the study include Support Vector Machines (SVM), translation, and an ensemble of pre-trained multilingual sentimental models methods. The paper provides a detailed …...

AbstractThis paper describes the submission of UZH_CLyp for the SemEval 2023 Task 9 “Multilingual Tweet Intimacy Analysis. We achieved second-best results in all 10 languages according to the official Pearson’s correlation regression evaluation measure. Our cross-lingual transfer learning approach explores the benefits of using a Head-First Fine-Tuning method (HeFiT) that …...

AbstractThis paper describes SemEval-2022’s shared task “Explainable Detection of Online Sexism”. The fine-grained classification of sexist content plays a major role in building explainable frameworks for online sexism detection. We hypothesize that by encoding dependency information using Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) we may capture more stylistic information about sexist contents. …...

AbstractThis paper presents our submitted system to AfriSenti SemEval-2023 Task 12: Sentiment Analysis for African Languages. The AfriSenti consists of three different tasks, covering monolingual, multilingual, and zero-shot sentiment analysis scenarios for African languages. To improve model generalization, we have explored the following steps: 1) further pre-training of the AfroXLM …...

AbstractThe goal of the NLI4CT task is to build a Natural Language Inference system for Clinical Trial Reports that will be used for evidence interpretation and retrieval. Large Language models have demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in various natural language processing tasks across multiple domains. We suggest using an instruction-finetuned Large Language …...

AbstractThis paper describes the participation of SINAI research team in the Explainable Detection of Online Sexism (EDOS) Shared Task at SemEval 2023. Specifically, we participate in subtask A (binary sexism detection), subtask B (category of sexism), and subtask C (fine-grained vector of sexism). For the three subtasks, we propose a …...

AbstractModeling the most likely label when an annotation task is perspective-dependent discards relevant sources of variation that come from the annotators themselves. We present three approaches to modeling the controversiality of a particular text. First, we explicitly represented annotators using annotator embeddings to predict the training signals of each annotator’s …...

AbstractThis paper describes the method we submitted as the Janko team in the SemEval-2023 Task 2,Multilingual Complex Named Entity Recognition (MultiCoNER 2). We only participated in the Chinese track. In this paper, we implement the BERT-BiLSTM-RDrop model. We use the fine-tuned BERT models, take the output of BERT as the …...

AbstractThe advancement in the healthcare sector assures improved diagnosis and supports appropriate decision making in medical domain. The medical domain data can be either radiology images or clinical data. The clinical data plays a major role in the healthcare sector by preventing and treating the health problem based on the …...

AbstractThis paper presents the winning system for the zero-shot Spanish framing detection task, which also achieves competitive places in eight additional languages. The challenge of the framing detection task lies in identifying a set of 14 frames when only a few or zero samples are available, i.e., a multilingual multi-label …...

AbstractThis paper describes our system used in the SemEval-2023 \textit{Task 10 Explainable Detection of Online Sexism (EDOS)}. Specifically, we participated in subtask B: a 4-class sexism classification task, and subtask C: a more fine-grained (11-class) sexism classification task, where it is necessary to predict the category of sexism. We treat …...

AbstractThis study presents a systematic method for analyzing the level of intimacy in tweets across ten different languages, using multi-task learning for SemEval 2023 Task 9: Multilingual Tweet Intimacy Analysis. The system begins with the utilization of the official training data, and then we experiment with different fine-tuning tricks and …...

AbstractThis paper describes our participation as team FramingFreaks in the SemEval-2023 task 3 “Category and Framing Predictions in online news in a multi-lingual setup.” We participated in subtasks 1 and 2. Our approach was to classify texts by splitting them into subwords to reduce the feature set size and then …...

AbstractThis paper describes an approach to automat- ically close the knowledge gap of Clickbait- Posts via a transformer model trained for Question-Answering, augmented by a task- specific post-processing step. This was part of the SemEval 2023 Clickbait shared task (Frbe et al., 2023a) - specifically task 2. We devised strategies …...

AbstractThis paper describes the methods and models applied by our team HHS in SubTask-A of SemEval-2023 Task 10 about sexism detection. In this task, we trained with the officially released data and analyzed the performance of five models, TextCNN, BERT, RoBERTa, XLNet, and Sup-SimCSE-RoBERTa. The experiments show that most of …...

AbstractThe “Causal Medical Claim Identification and Extraction from Social Media Posts task at SemEval 2023 competition focuses on identifying and validating medical claims in English, by posing two subtasks on causal claim identification and PIO (Population, Intervention, Outcome) frame extraction. In the context of SemEval, we present a method for …...
