Boosting Methods for Multi-label Data Cyberbullying

Easy accessibility to the internet and social media allows individuals to communicate anonymously, providing opportunities for abusive and harmful behavior. The psychological impact of cyberbullying can be very detrimental, triggering stress, depression, and even causing more serious consequences such as suicide. This paper describes cyberbullying sentiment analysis with a focus on the use of four different boosting methods, namely Gradient Booster, Gradient Booster, XGBoost, AdaBoost, dan LightGBM on a multi-label public dataset covering 6 categories. The aim of this research is to compare and analyze the relative performance of these boosting methods in overcoming the challenges of multi-label sentiment analysis in the context of cyberbullying. Results reveal that XGBoost and LightGBM have a tendency to more effectively overcome the challenges of detecting cyberbullying in more complex categories, making a positive contribution to the development of superior detection systems in the context of multi-label sentiment analysis. This research contributes to the field by providing a comparative analysis of state-of-the-art boosting algorithms, highlighting their strengths in multi-label classification tasks, and offering practical insights for developing more accurate and reliable cyberbullying detection systems. The findings from this study are expected to serve as a reference for future development of machine learning-based tools that can help mitigate the psychological harm caused by online abuse, particularly in detecting subtle and complex forms of cyberbullying behavior.
