Abstract (arXiv)

The fundamental problem in toxicity detection task lies in the fact that the toxicity is ill-defined. This causes us to rely on subjective and vague data in models' training, which results in non-robust and non-accurate results: garbage in - garbage out. This work suggests a new, stress-level-based definition of toxicity designed to be objective and context-aware. On par with it, we also describe possible ways of applying this new definition to dataset creation and model training.
