Model Card for mT5-counternarrative-es
This is a fine-tuned text-to-text mT5-base model to generate counternarratives against hate speech in Spanish. The model has been fine-tuned on the Spanish splits of the CONAN-EUS dataset.
CONAN-EUS was created by professionally translating all 6654 English HS-CN pairs of the original CONAN dataset into Basque and Spanish. For experimentation we generated train, validation and test splits in a way that no HS-CN pairs occurred across them.
| CONAN-EUS Splits | Total HS-CN Count |
|---|---|
| train | 4833 |
| validation | 537 |
| test | 1278 |

HS-CN example
The CONAN dataset includes HS-CN pairs, regarding the topic of Muslims and Islam. An example of a HS-CN pair in Basque, Spanish and English is illustrated below:
| HS | CN |
|---|---|
| Musulmanok ez dugu gure kultura aberastu dezakeen ezer erabilgarririk. | Zer egin dute guretzat musulmanek? Beno, kafea, erlojuak, kamerak, higienea, unibertsitateak, tresna kirurgikoak, mapak, musika, aljebra. |
| Los musulmanes no tienen nada útil que pueda enriquecer nuestra cultura. | ¿Qué han hecho los musulmanes por nosotros? Bueno, café, relojes, cámaras, higiene, universidades, instrumentos quirúrgicos, mapas, música, álgebra. |
| Muslims do not have anything useful that can enrich our culture. | What have Muslims ever done for us? Well, Coffee, Clocks, Cameras, Hygiene, Universities, Surgical Instruments, Maps, Music, Algebra. |
