Proceedings of the Sixth Social Media Mining for Health (#SMM4H) Workshop and Shared Task

With increasing users sharing health-related information on social media, there has been a rise in using social media for health monitoring and surveillance. In this paper, we present a system that addresses classic health-related binary classification problems presented in Tasks 1a, 4, and 8 of the 6th edition of Social Media Mining for Health Applications (SMM4H) shared tasks. We developed a system based on RoBERTa (for Task 1a & 4) and BioBERT (for Task 8). Furthermore, we address the challenge of the imbalanced dataset and propose techniques such as undersampling, oversampling, and data augmentation to overcome the imbalanced nature of a given health-related dataset.
