UTFPR at SemEval-2019 Task 6: Relying on Compositionality to Find Offense

Gustavo Henrique Paetzold


Abstract
We present the UTFPR system for the OffensEval shared task of SemEval 2019: A character-to-word-to-sentence compositional RNN model trained exclusively over the training data provided by the organizers. We find that, although not very competitive for the task at hand, it offers a robust solution to the orthographic irregularity inherent to tweets.
