Hate Speech on Levantine Tweets

Datasets: 1. DART

    a.) /cf-data 
            Contains .txt files, each with Tweets from that specific dialect
            (e.g. EGY.txt contains Tweets of Egyptain dialect)
            Format: 3 columns; (1) score, (2) tweet_ID, (3) tweet_text

    b.) get_DART_transcripts.py
            Code to extract Tweets from .txt files in /cf-data
            Creates 2 new files: (1) clean_LEV.tsv, (2) clean_NONLEV.tsv
            The --other_paths argument takes at least one path; simply write out the paths one after another
            From terminal: python get_DART_transcripts.py --lev_path [PATH TO '/DART/cf-data/LEV.txt'] --other_paths [PATHS TO '/DART/cf-data/[^LEV].txt']

    c.) clean_LEV.tsv
            One of the output .tsv files after running get_DART_transcripts.py
            Contains Levantine-only Tweets, each labeled with "LEV"

    d.) clean_NONLEV.tsv
            One of the output .tsv files after running get_DART_transcripts.py
            Contains Levantine-only Tweets, each labeled with "NONLEV"

    e.) classify_LEV.py
            From terminal: python classify_LEV.py --clean_lev_path [path to 'clean_LEV.tsv'] --clean_nonlev_path [PATH TO 'clean_NONLEV.tsv']

    f.) classify_LEV_metrics.txt
            Results from Linear SVM classifier using SelectKBest(chi2, k=500)
            Binary classification ("LEV" vs "NONLEV")
