ABSTRACT
The HASOC track is dedicated to the evaluation of technology for finding Offensive Language and Hate Speech. HASOC is creating a multilingual data corpus mainly for English and under-resourced languages(Hindi and Marathi). This paper presents one HASOC subtrack with two tasks. In 2021, we organized the classification task for English, Hindi, and Marathi. The first task consists of two classification tasks; Subtask 1A consists of a binary and fine-grained classification into offensive and non-offensive tweets. Subtask 1B asks to classify the tweets into Hate, Profane and offensive. Task 2 consists of identifying tweets given additional context in the form of the preceding conversion. During the shared task, 65 teams have submitted 652 runs. This overview paper briefly presents the task descriptions, the data and the results obtained from the participant’s submission.
