# Dataset Card for GAHD
## Dataset Description
GAHD is a **G**erman **A**dversarial **H**ate speech **D**ataset containing 10,996 examples. We collected the dataset via four rounds of Dynamic Adversarial Data Collection and explored various methods of supporting annotators in finding adversarial examples.

- **Repository:** https://github.com/jagol/gahd
## Dataset Structure
`gahd.csv` contains the following columns:
- `gahd_id`: unique identifier of the entry
- `text`: text of the entry
- `label`: `0` = "not-hate speech", `1` = "hate speech"
- `round`: round in which the entry was created
- `split`: "train", "dev", or "test"
- `contrastive_gahd_id`: `gahd_id` of its contrastive example
`gahd_disaggregated.csv` contains the following additional columns:
- `source`:
- if annotators entered the entry via the Dynabench interface: `dynabench`
- if the entry was translated from the Vidgen et al. 2021 dataset: `translation`
- if the entry stems from the Leipzit news corpus: `news`
- `model_prediction`: label predicted by the target model, `0` or `1`
- `annotator_id`: unique identifier of the annotator that created the entry
- `annotator_labels`: a string containing a forward slash-separated list of all labels by annotators
- `expert_labels`: `0` or `1` if an expert annotator annotated the entry, otherwise empty

abstract = "Hate speech detection models are only as good as the data they are trained on. Datasets sourced from social media suffer from systematic gaps and biases, leading to unreliable models with simplistic decision boundaries. Adversarial datasets, collected by exploiting model weaknesses, promise to fix this problem. However, adversarial data collection can be slow and costly, and individual annotators have limited creativity. In this paper, we introduce GAHD, a new German Adversarial Hate speech Dataset comprising ca. 11k examples. During data collection, we explore new strategies for supporting annotators, to create more diverse adversarial examples more efficiently and provide a manual analysis of annotator disagreements for each strategy. Our experiments show that the resulting dataset is challenging even for state-of-the-art hate speech detection models, and that training on GAHD clearly improves model robustness. Further, we find that mixing multiple support strategies is most advantageous. We make GAHD publicly available at https://github.com/jagol/gahd.",
