Competition To Identify Sexual Predators In Chat Logs


An anonymous reader writes "Researchers from the University of Lugano, Switzerland, and other universities from the US and Europe organize a competition to automatically identify sexual predators in chat logs. The task is described as: "The goal of this sub-task is to identify classes of authors, namely online predators. You will be given chat logs involving two (or more) people and have to determine who is the one trying to convince the other participants(s) to provide some sexual favor . You will also need to identify the particular conversation where the person exploits his bad behavior." Their data set covers hundreds of chat logs with dozens of true positives (i.e., chats where one is trying to hit on another)."
