From Detection to Characterization: A Large-Scale Study of Ragebait on Japanese X

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

The paper presents a large‑scale study of ragebait—content designed to provoke anger—on Japanese posts on X. It introduces a labeled dataset created with a large language model, trains Japanese language models, and builds an ensemble classifier that detects ragebait. Applying this detector to a vast dataset reveals that ragebait is especially common in politically and socially contentious topics, spreads faster, and elicits stronger negative emotions than non‑ragebait posts.

From Detection to Characterization: A Large-Scale Study of Ragebait on Japanese X

The paper presents a large‑scale study of ragebait on Japanese X, developing an ensemble classifier trained on a dataset labeled with the help of a large language model. The detector was applied to a vast collection of Japanese posts, revealing that ragebait is especially common in politically and socially contentious topics such as politics, discrimination, public health, and interpersonal conflict. Ragebait posts spread more quickly and elicit stronger negative emotions—anger, fear, disgust, sadness, and surprise—than non‑ragebait posts.

When Hate Meets Facts: LLMs-in-the-Loop for Check-worthiness Detection in Hate Speech

The paper introduces WSF-ARG+, a new dataset that pairs hate speech with check‑worthiness annotations, and presents an LLM‑in‑the‑loop framework to streamline the annotation process. Experiments with 12 open‑weight large language models demonstrate that the framework cuts human effort while maintaining annotation quality. The study also shows that incorporating check‑worthiness labels improves hate‑speech detection performance, boosting macro‑F1 scores for large models by up to 0.213 and averaging 0.154 across models.

Automatic Evaluation of Mental Health Stigma in Online Communication

The paper presents a new benchmark for automatically evaluating mental health stigma in online text, featuring a fine‑grained taxonomy that covers stigma mode, domain, and specific components across multiple mental health conditions. The authors annotate naturally occurring news and social media posts and test large language models and classifiers for sentiment, toxicity, and hate speech, finding that these models poorly capture stigma and often overpredict it without explicit rules. The benchmark, annotations, exemplar cases, and code are publicly released on GitHub.
