### Dataset Summary | |
This is an abusive/offensive language detection dataset for Albanian. The data is formatted | |
following the OffensEval convention, with three tasks: | |
* Subtask A: Offensive (OFF) or not (NOT) | |
* Subtask B: Untargeted (UNT) or targeted insult (TIN) | |
* Subtask C: Type of target: individual (IND), group (GRP), or other (OTH) | |
Notes on the above: | |
* The subtask A field should always be filled. | |
* The subtask B field should only be filled if there's "offensive" (OFF) in A. | |
* The subtask C field should only be filled if there's "targeted" (TIN) in B. | |
The dataset name is a backronym, also standing for "Spoken Hate in the Albanian Jargon" | |
See the paper [https://arxiv.org/abs/2107.13592](https://arxiv.org/abs/2107.13592) for full details. | |
### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards | |
* [OffensEval 2020](https://sites.google.com/site/offensevalsharedtask/results-and-paper-submission) | |
### Languages | |
Albanian (`bcp47:sq-AL`) | |
## Dataset Structure | |
There are five named configs, one per language: | |
* `ar` Arabic | |
* `da` Danish | |
* `en` English | |
* `gr` Greek | |
* `tr` Turkish | |
The training data for English is absent - this is 9M tweets that need to be rehydrated on their own. See [https://zenodo.org/record/3950379#.XxZ-aFVKipp](https://zenodo.org/record/3950379#.XxZ-aFVKipp) | |
### Data Instances | |
An example of 'train' looks as follows. | |
``` | |
{ | |
'id': '0', | |
'text': 'PLACEHOLDER TEXT', | |
'subtask_a': 1, | |
} | |
``` | |
### Data Fields | |
- `id`: a `string` feature. | |
- `text`: a `string`. | |
- `subtask_a`: whether or not the instance is offensive; `0: NOT, 1: OFF` | |

## Dataset Creation | |
### Curation Rationale | |
Collecting data for abusive language classification. Different rational for each dataset. | |
### Source Data | |
#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization | |
Varies per language dataset | |
#### Who are the source language producers? | |
Social media users | |
### Annotations | |
#### Annotation process | |
Varies per language dataset | |
#### Who are the annotators? | |
Varies per language dataset; native speakers | |
### Personal and Sensitive Information | |
The data was public at the time of collection. No PII removal has been performed. | |
## Considerations for Using the Data | |
### Social Impact of Dataset | |
The data definitely contains abusive language. The data could be used to develop and propagate offensive language against every target group involved, i.e. ableism, racism, sexism, ageism, and so on. | |
### Discussion of Biases | |
### Other Known Limitations | |
## Additional Information | |
### Dataset Curators | |
The datasets is curated by each sub-part's paper authors. | |

abstract = "We present the results and the main findings of SemEval-2020 Task 12 on Multilingual Offensive Language Identification in Social Media (OffensEval-2020). The task included three subtasks corresponding to the hierarchical taxonomy of the OLID schema from OffensEval-2019, and it was offered in five languages: Arabic, Danish, English, Greek, and Turkish. OffensEval-2020 was one of the most popular tasks at SemEval-2020, attracting a large number of participants across all subtasks and languages: a total of 528 teams signed up to participate in the task, 145 teams submitted official runs on the test data, and 70 teams submitted system description papers.", | |
