## Dataset Card for VITHSD
### 1. Dataset Summary
**VITHSD** (Vietnamese Targeted Hate Speech Detection) contains **10,000** Vietnamese social‐media comments annotated for hate toward five target categories:
* **individual**
* **groups**
* **religion/creed**
* **race/ethnicity**
* **politics**
Each target is labeled on a **3‐point scale** (e.g., 0 = no hate, 1 = offensive, 2 = hateful). In this unified version, all splits are combined into one CSV with an extra `type` column indicating `train` / `dev` / `test`.
### 2. Supported Tasks and Metrics
* **Task**: Multi‐label classification (per‐target hate/offense detection)
* **Metrics**:
* **Accuracy** (per‐target and overall)
* **Macro F1** (per‐target and overall)
### 3. Languages
* Vietnamese
### 4. Dataset Structure
| Column | Type | Description |
| ---------------- | ------ | -------------------------------------------- |
| `comment` | string | The raw user comment (Vietnamese). |
| `individual` | int | Hate level toward individuals (0/1/2). |
| `groups` | int | Hate level toward groups (0/1/2). |
| `religion/creed` | int | Hate level toward religion/creed (0/1/2). |
| `race/ethnicity` | int | Hate level toward race/ethnicity (0/1/2). |
| `politics` | int | Hate level toward political targets (0/1/2). |
| `type` | string | Split name: `train` / `validation` / `test`. |
| `dataset` | string | Source indicator (`VITHSD`). |
### 5. Data Fields
* **comment** (`str`): The social‐media text.
* **individual**, **groups**, **religion/creed**, **race/ethnicity**, **politics** (`int`): 0 = no hate, 1 = offensive, 2 = hateful.
* **type** (`str`): Which split the example belongs to.
* **dataset** (`str`): Always `VITHSD`.
### 6. Usage
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("visolex/VITHSD")
train = ds.filter(lambda ex: ex["type"] == "train")
val = ds.filter(lambda ex: ex["type"] == "dev")
test = ds.filter(lambda ex: ex["type"] == "test")
# Examine one example
print(train[0])
```
