IRIT at TRAC 2020.

This paper describes the participation of the IRIT team in the TRAC (Trolling, Aggression and Cyberbullying) 2020 shared task (Bhattacharya et al., 2020) on Aggression Identification and more precisely to the shared task in English language. The shared task was further divided into two sub-tasks: (a) aggression identification and (b) misogynistic aggression identification. We proposed to use the transformer based language model BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representation from Transformer) for the two sub-tasks. Our team was qualified as twelfth out of sixteen participants on sub-task (a) and eleventh out of fifteen participants on sub-task (b).
