The paper summarizes our research on multilingual detection of persuasion techniques in memes for the SemEval-2024 Task 4. Our work focused on English-Subtask 1, implemented based on a roberta-large pre-trained model provided by the transforms tool that was fine-tuned into a corpus of social media posts. Our method significantly outperforms the officially released baseline method, and ranked 7th in English-Subtask 1 for the test set. This paper also compares the performances of different deep learning model architectures, such as BERT, ALBERT, and XLM-RoBERTa, on multilingual detection of persuasion techniques in memes. The experimental source code covered in the paper will later be sourced from Github.

This paper delineates our investigation into the application of BioLinkBERT for enhancing clinical trials, presented at SemEval-2024 Task 2. Centering on the medical biomedical NLI task, our approach utilized the BioLinkBERT-large model, refined with a pioneering mixed loss function that amalgamates contrastive learning and cross-entropy loss. This methodology demonstrably surpassed the established benchmark, securing an impressive F1 score of 0.72 and positioning our work prominently in the field. Additionally, we conducted a comparative analysis of various deep learning architectures, including BERT, ALBERT, and XLM-RoBERTa, within the context of medical text mining. The findings not only showcase our method’s superior performance but also chart a course for future research in biomedical data processing.

This paper summarizes our studies on propaganda detection techniques for news articles in the SemEval-2020 task 11. This task is divided into the SI and TC subtasks. We implemented the GloVe word representation, the BERT pretraining model, and the LSTM model architecture to accomplish this task. Our approach achieved good results for both the SI and TC subtasks. The macro- F 1 - score for the SI subtask is 0.406, and the micro- F 1 - score for the TC subtask is 0.505. Our method significantly outperforms the officially released baseline method, and the SI and TC subtasks rank 17th and 22nd, respectively, for the test set. This paper also compares the performances of different deep learning model architectures, such as the Bi-LSTM, LSTM, BERT, and XGBoost models, on the detection of news promotion techniques.
