Cyberbullying Detection Based On Emotion

This paper presents models for detecting cyberbullying by utilizing contextual, emotional, and sentiment features, highlighting the impact of negative emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt. An Emotion Detection Model (EDM) was developed using enhanced Twitter datasets, leading to improved detection performance with a recall increase of 0.5 to 0.6 and a 0.7 f1-score over existing models. The study contributes a comprehensive emotion-annotated dataset and demonstrates the effectiveness of emotions as features in cyberbullying detection.

Cyberbullying Detection Based on

Emotion
Abstract:
Due to the detrimental consequences caused by cyberbullying, a great deal of research
has been undertaken to propose effective techniques to resolve this reoccurring
problem. The research presented in this paper is motivated by the fact that negative
emotions can be caused by cyberbullying. This paper proposes cyberbullying detection
models that are trained based on contextual, emotions and sentiment features. An
Emotion Detection Model (EDM) was constructed using Twitter datasets that have been
improved in terms of its annotations. Emotions and sentiment were extracted from
cyberbullying datasets using EDM and lexicons based. Two cyberbullying datasets
from Wikipedia and Twitter respectively were further improved by comprehensive
annotation of emotion and sentiment features. The results show that anger, fear and
guilt were the major emotions associated with cyberbullying. Subsequently, the
extracted emotions were used as features in addition to contextual and sentiment
features to train models for cyberbullying detection. The results demonstrate that using
emotion features and sentiment has improved the performance of detecting
cyberbullying by 0.5 to 0.6 recall. The proposed models also outperformed the state-of-
the-art models by a 0.7 f1-score. The main contribution of this work is two-fold, which
includes a comprehensive emotion-annotated dataset for cyberbullying detection, and
an empirical proof of emotions as effective features for cyberbullying detection.
