General concept of the model
Proposed usage
The 'inappropriateness' substance we tried to collect in the dataset and detect with the model is NOT a substitution of toxicity, it is rather a derivative of toxicity. So the model based on our dataset could serve as an additional layer of inappropriateness filtering after toxicity and obscenity filtration. You can detect the exact sensitive topic by using another model. The proposed pipeline is shown in the scheme below.
Inappropraiteness intuition
This model is trained on the dataset of inappropriate messages of the Russian language. Generally, an inappropriate utterance is an utterance that has not obscene words or any kind of toxic intent, but can still harm the reputation of the speaker. Find some sample for more intuition in the table below. Learn more about the concept of inappropriateness in this article presented at the workshop for Balto-Slavic NLP at the EACL-2021 conference. Please note that this article describes the first version of the dataset, while the model is trained on the extended version of the dataset open-sourced on our GitHub or on kaggle. The properties of the dataset are the same as the one described in the article, the only difference is the size.

Metrics
The model was trained, validated, and tested only on the samples with 100% confidence, which allowed to get the following metrics on test set:
| precision | recall | f1-score | support | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 0.92 | 0.93 | 0.93 | 7839 |
| 1 | 0.80 | 0.76 | 0.78 | 2726 |
| accuracy | 0.89 | 10565 | ||
| macro avg | 0.86 | 0.85 | 0.85 | 10565 |
| weighted avg | 0.89 | 0.89 | 0.89 | 10565 |

abstract = "Not all topics are equally {``}flammable{''} in terms of toxicity: a calm discussion of turtles or fishing less often fuels inappropriate toxic dialogues than a discussion of politics or sexual minorities. We define a set of sensitive topics that can yield inappropriate and toxic messages and describe the methodology of collecting and labelling a dataset for appropriateness. While toxicity in user-generated data is well-studied, we aim at defining a more fine-grained notion of inappropriateness. The core of inappropriateness is that it can harm the reputation of a speaker. This is different from toxicity in two respects: (i) inappropriateness is topic-related, and (ii) inappropriate message is not toxic but still unacceptable. We collect and release two datasets for Russian: a topic-labelled dataset and an appropriateness-labelled dataset. We also release pre-trained classification models trained on this data.",
