Social Knowledge for Cross-Domain User Preference Modeling
Nir Lotan, Adir Solomon, Ido Guy +1
We demonstrate that user preferences can be represented and predicted across topical domains using large-scale social modeling. Given information about popular entities favored by…
The X Types -- Mapping the Semantics of the Twitter Sphere
Ogen Schlachet Drukerman, Einat Minkov
Social networks form a valuable source of world knowledge, where influential entities correspond to popular accounts. Unlike factual knowledge bases (KBs), which maintain a semanti…
Generative AI for Hate Speech Detection: Evaluation and Findings
Sagi Pendzel, Tomer Wullach, Amir Adler +1
Automatic hate speech detection using deep neural models is hampered by the scarcity of labeled datasets, leading to poor generalization. To mitigate this problem, generative AI ha…
Social World Knowledge: Modeling and Applications
Nir Lotan, Einat Minkov
Social world knowledge is a key ingredient in effective communication and information processing by humans and machines alike. As of today, there exist many knowledge bases that re…
Detecting Multidimensional Political Incivility on Social Media
Sagi Pendzel, Nir Lotan, Alon Zoizner +1
The rise of social media has been argued to intensify uncivil and hostile online political discourse. Yet, to date, there is a lack of clarity on what incivility means in the polit…
SocialVec: Social Entity Embeddings
Nir Lotan, Einat Minkov
This paper introduces SocialVec, a general framework for eliciting social world knowledge from social networks, and applies this framework to Twitter. SocialVec learns low-dimensio…
Character-level HyperNetworks for Hate Speech Detection
Tomer Wullach, Amir Adler, Einat Minkov
The massive spread of hate speech, hateful content targeted at specific subpopulations, is a problem of critical social importance. Automated methods of hate speech detection typic…
Person Entity Profiling Framework: Identifying, Integrating and Visualizing Online Freely Available Entity-Related Information
Saeed Amal, Einat Minkov, Tsvi Kuflik
When we consider our CV, it is full of entities that we are or were associated with and that define us in some way(s). Such entities include where we studied, where we worked, who…
Fight Fire with Fire: Fine-tuning Hate Detectors using Large Samples of Generated Hate Speech
Tomer Wullach, Amir Adler, Einat Minkov
Automatic hate speech detection is hampered by the scarcity of labeled datasetd, leading to poor generalization. We employ pretrained language models (LMs) to alleviate this data b…
What's the best place for an AI conference, Vancouver or ______: Why completing comparative questions is difficult
Avishai Zagoury, Einat Minkov, Idan Szpektor +1
Although large neural language models (LMs) like BERT can be finetuned to yield state-of-the-art results on many NLP tasks, it is often unclear what these models actually learn. He…
Towards Hate Speech Detection at Large via Deep Generative Modeling
Tomer Wullach, Amir Adler, Einat Minkov
Hate speech detection is a critical problem in social media platforms, being often accused for enabling the spread of hatred and igniting physical violence. Hate speech detection r…
