 ABSTRACT

Cyberbullying has become a prevalent issue in the digital age, significantly affecting individuals'
mental health and well-being. This project presents an approach to predict cyberbullying
incidents using machine learning techniques. By leveraging a diverse set of features, including
text content, user interactions, and temporal patterns, a predictive model is developed to classify
cyberbullying instances. Several machine learning algorithms, including Support Vector
Machines (SVM), Random Forest, and Gradient Boosting Machines (GBM), are evaluated to
identify the most effective model..
This project offers a comprehensive understanding of Cyberbullying incidents and their
corresponding offences combining a series of approaches reported in relevant Work. The
implementation provides the opportunity to systematically combine various element or
Cyberbullying characteristics. Additionally, a comprehensive list of Cyberbullying-related
offences is put forward. The offences are ordered in a Deep Neural Network classification
system based on specific criteria to assist in better classification and correlation of their
respective incidents. This enables a thorough understanding of the repeating and underlying
criminal activities.
The proposed system demonstrates promising results in cyberbullying prediction, offering a
proactive solution to mitigate its harmful consequences. Implementing this predictive model
enables social media platforms and authorities to swiftly identify and address cyberbullying,
fostering a safer online environment.
In conclusion, We have successfully implemented an effective system for detecting and
identifying abusive comments on social media using a random forest classifier. Our goal is to
filter tweets or comments using machine learning algorithms, creating a healthy environment for
interaction and information exchange. It's our responsibility as the future generation to prevent
the toxic environment in social media and foster a positive online space.
