| This __hate speeh__ dataset is derived from [manueltonneau/arabic-hate-speech-superset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/manueltonneau/arabic-hate-speech-superset). |
| The original dataset has loading issues. This dataset is mainly based on the __L-HSAB__ and __alsafari__ sets mentioned in the original. |
| Around 3000 other records from other datasets were added for better (not full) coverage. |
| The current dataset keeps the original class (labels - apparently not as accurate as should be) and adds 2 columns: label_text and label (0: negative, 1:positive). |
| Label text was first generated by LLM (Qwen 2.5 14B quantized). Label was fully revised after that and reflects my personal opinion (not an exat science). |
| |
| A [hate speech classifier model](https://huggingface.co/akhooli/setfit_ar_hs) based on this dataset is available. |
| |
| * Note: this dataset was updated on Nov. 14, 2024. It has around 11500 entries all manually inspected and labeled |
| (my personal assessment, so not always correct or as intended). |
| * __Disclaimer__: some entries contain obscene language, swearing and other forms of unacceptable terminology |
| (data taken as is, removed only instances of "@user" from the original). |
| The purpose of the dataset is to train a classifier and not to publish or endorse accpeptable/unacceptable content. |
