Abstract

This paper describes our submissions to SemEval-2022 subtask 4-A - 'Patronizing and Condescending Language Detection: Binary Classification". We developed different models for this subtask. We applied 11 supervised machine learning methods and 9 preprocessing methods. Our best submission was a model we built with BertForSequenceClassification. Our experiments indicate that pre-processing stage is a must for a successful model. The dataset for Subtask 1 is highly imbalanced. The F1-scores on the oversampled imbalanced training dataset were higher than the results on the original training dataset.
