Detecting ugly and derogatory words in Serbian language using a web browser extension

In natural language processing, data acquisition and preprocessing techniques are significant for experiments involving training models on cleaned data. This paper describes the formation of a dataset of ugly and derogatory words in the Serbian language and the development of a web extension to analyze texts in which such words appear and then their censoring. Developing such an add-on is essential in creating a safer and healthier digital environment for young users who are just developing their Internet habits and adults who want to avoid unwanted content. It is crucial to point out that there are few software tools for natural languages with limited resources, such as the Serbian language. This software could analyze the frequency of certain foul words on different sites, which would contribute to a better understanding of the impact of such language on users.

Abstract

In natural language processing, data acquisition and preprocessing techniques are significant for experiments involving training models on cleaned data. This paper describes the formation of a dataset of ugly and derogatory words in the Serbian language and the development of a web extension to analyze texts in which such words appear and then their censoring. Developing such an add-on is essential in creating a safer and healthier digital environment for young users who are just developing their Internet habits and adults who want to avoid unwanted content. It is crucial to point out that there are few software tools for natural languages with limited resources, such as the Serbian language. This software could analyze the frequency of certain foul words on different sites, which would contribute to a better understanding of the impact of such language on users.
