The ComMA Dataset v0.2

The ComMA Dataset v0.2 is a multilingual dataset annotated with a hierarchical, fine-grained tagset marking different types of aggression and the "context" in which they occur. The context, here, is defined by the conversational thread in which a specific comment occurs and also the "type" of discursive role that the comment is performing with respect to the previous comment. The initial dataset, being discussed here (and made available as part of the ComMA@ICON shared task), consists of a total 15,000 annotated comments in four languages - Meitei, Bangla, Hindi, and Indian English - collected from various social media platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and Telegram. As is usual on social media websites, a large number of these comments are multilingual, mostly code-mixed with English.
