Résumé : Online hatred is a growing concern on many social media platforms. To address this issue, different social media platforms have introduced moderation policies for such content. They also employ moderators who can check the posts violating moderation policies and take appropriate action. Academicians in the abusive language research domain also perform various studies to detect such content better. Although there is extensive research in abusive language detection in English, there is a lacuna in abusive language detection in low resource languages like Hindi, Urdu etc. In this FIRE 2021 shared task - "HASOC- Abusive and Threatening language detection in Urdu" the organizers propose an abusive language detection dataset in Urdu along with threatening language detection. In this paper, we explored several machine learning models such as XGboost, LGBM, m-BERT based models for abusive and threatening content detection in Urdu based on the shared task. We observed the Transformer model specifically trained on abusive language dataset in Arabic helps in getting the best performance. Our model came First for both abusive and threatening content detection with an F1scoreof 0.88 and 0.54, respectively.
