Challenges for Toxic Comment Classification: An In-Depth Error Analysis

Abstract

Toxic comment classification has become an active research field with many recently proposed approaches. However, while these approaches address some of the task’s challenges others still remain unsolved and directions for further research are needed. To this end, we compare different approaches on a new, large comment dataset and propose an ensemble that outperforms all individual models. Further, we validate our findings on a second dataset. The results of the ensemble enable us to perform an extensive error analysis, which reveals open challenges for state-of- the-art methods and directions towards pending future research. These challenges include missing paradigmatic context and inconsistent dataset labels.
