Machine-written texts are gradually becoming indistinguishable from human-generated texts, leading to the need to use sophisticated methods to detect them. Team CIC-NLP presents work in the Gen-AI Content Detection Task 1 at COLING 2025 Workshop: the focus of our work is on Subtask B of Task 1, which is the classification of text written by machines and human authors, with particular attention paid to identifying multilingual binary classification problem. Usng mBERT, we addressed the binary classification task using the dataset provided by the GenAI Detection Task team. mBERT acchieved a macro-average F1-score of 0.72 as well as an accuracy score of 0.73.

As machine-generated texts (MGT) become increasingly similar to human writing, these dis- tinctions are harder to identify. In this paper, we as the CIC-NLP team present our submission to the Gen-AI Content Detection Workshop at COLING 2025 for Task 1 Subtask A, which involves distinguishing between text generated by LLMs and text authored by humans, with an emphasis on detecting English-only MGT. We applied the DistilBERT model to this binary classification task using the dataset provided by the organizers. Fine-tuning the model effectively differentiated between the classes, resulting in a micro-average F1-score of 0.70 on the evaluation test set. We provide a detailed explanation of the fine-tuning parameters and steps involved in our analysis.

This paper describes our submissions for the Social Media Mining for Health (SMM4H) 2022 shared tasks. We participated in 2 tasks: a) Task 4: Classification of Tweets self-reporting exact age and b) Task 9: Classification of Reddit posts self-reporting exact age. We evaluated the two( BERT and RoBERTa) transformer based models for both tasks. For Task 4 RoBERTa-Large achieved an F1 score of 0.846 on the test set and BERT-Large achieved an F1 score of 0.865 on the test set for Task 9.
