# Fined-tuned roBERTa for Toxicity Classification in Spanish

This is a fine-tuned roBERTa model trained using as a base model Twitter-roBERTa base-sized for Sentiment Analysis, which was trained on ~58M tweets. The dataset for training this model is a gold standard for protest events for toxicity and incivility in Spanish.

The dataset comprises ~5M data points from three Latin American protest events: (a) protests against the coronavirus and judicial reform measures in Argentina during August 2020; (b) protests against education budget cuts in Brazil in May 2019; and (c) the social outburst in Chile stemming from protests against the underground fare hike in October 2019. We are focusing on interactions in Spanish to elaborate a gold standard for digital interactions in this language, therefore, we prioritise Argentinian and Chilean data.
