| Challenge: | Existing corpora for Spanish are under-resourced for toxic content detection . sarcasm, indirect aggression, irony, and other toxicity are not detected in English . |
| Approach: | They propose to extend the NECOS-TOX corpus to include 4,011 Spanish comments . each comment is annotated across three levels of toxicity, with substantial inter-annotator agreement . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model performs on par with larger models and is released publicly . the proposed model is based on a human-in-the-loop active learning strategy . |

| Challenge: | Toxic memes spread harmful and offensive content and pose a significant challenge in online environments. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework to mitigate toxicity in toxic memes by leveraging a set of pre-trained models that can interpret the visual and textual components of memes. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework reduces toxicity on publicly available meme datasets by 10-20% compared to the previous methods. |
