| Challenge: | Disambiguating the meaning of pejorative words might help misogyny detection . state-of-the-art models struggle to correctly classify misogoyne when sentences contain such terms. |
| Approach: | They present a corpus of 1,200 manually annotated Italian tweets for pejorative language at the word level and misogyny at the sentence level. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves on 1,200 manually annotated Italian tweets and on two benchmarks. |
