Offensive language detection and analysis has become a major area of research in Natural Language Processing. The freedom of participation in social media has exposed online users to posts designed to denigrate, insult or hurt them according to gende
r, race, religion, ideology, or other personal characteristics. Focusing on young influencers from the well-known social platforms of Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube, we have collected a corpus composed of 47,128 Spanish comments manually labeled on offensive pre-defined categories. A subset of the corpus attaches a degree of confidence to each label, so both multi-class classification and multi-output regression studies are possible. In this paper, we introduce the corpus, discuss its building process, novelties, and some preliminary experiments with it to serve as a baseline for the research community.
Terminological consistency is an essential requirement for industrial translation. High-quality, hand-crafted terminologies contain entries in their nominal forms. Integrating such a terminology into machine translation is not a trivial task. The MT
system must be able to disambiguate homographs on the source side and choose the correct wordform on the target side. In this work, we propose a simple but effective method for homograph disambiguation and a method of wordform selection by introducing multi-choice lexical constraints. We also propose a metric to measure the terminological consistency of the translation. Our results have a significant improvement over the current SOTA in terms of terminological consistency without any loss of the BLEU score. All the code used in this work will be published as open-source.
