### Abusive Langauge, Hate Speech and Profanity Detection System using Pre-trained BERT models

This is an application for detecting abusive language, hate speech and profanity in a text speech using pre-trained Bert Transfomer-based models found at [Hugging Facing Hub](https://huggingface.co). The models used are as follow:
- Abusive Language: **[Hate-speech-CNERG/english-abusive-MuRIL](https://huggingface.co/Hate-speech-CNERG/english-abusive-MuRIL)** a model trained for detecting abusive speech in English. It is finetuned on MuRIL model using English abusive speech dataset
- Hate Speech: **[cardiffnlp/twitter-roberta-base-hate-latest](https://huggingface.co/cardiffnlp/twitter-roberta-base-hate-latest)** this model is a fine-tuned version of cardiffnlp/twitter-roberta-base-2022-154m for binary hate-speech classification. A combination of 13 different hate-speech datasets in the English language were used to fine-tune the model.
- Profanity: **[tarekziade/pardonmyai](https://huggingface.co/tarekziade/pardonmyai)** a fine-tuned model that detects profanity in text.
