DLTCNITPY@DravidianLangTech 2025 Abusive Code-mixed Text Detection System Targeting Women for Tamil and Malayalam Languages using Deep Learning Technique

Habiba A, Dr G Aghila


Abstract
The growing use of social communication platforms has seen women facing higher degrees of online violence than ever before. This paper presents how a deep learning abuse detection system can be applied to inappropriate text directed at women on social media. Because of the diversity of languages and the casual nature of online communication, coupled with the cultural diversity around the world, the detection of such content is often severely lacking. This research utilized Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) for abuse text detection in Malayalam and Tamil languages. This modeldelivers 0.75, a high F1 score for Malayalam, and for Tamil, 0.72, achieving the desired balance of identifying abuse and non-abusive content and achieving high-performance rates. The designed model, based on the dataset provided in DravidianLangTech@NAACL2025 (shared task) comprising code-mixed abusive and nonabusive social media posts in Malayalam and Tamil, showcases a high propensity for detecting accuracy and indicates the likely success of deep learning-based models for abuse textdetection in resource-constrained languages.
