    Abstract

    Hate speech detection on social media is a significant challenge due to the diverse and evolving nature of online language. This project aims to create an effective and user-friendly hate speech detection system using advanced machine learning and deep learning techniques. By developing various models, including Logistic Regression, Naive Bayes, Decision Trees, LSTM, BiLSTM, and CNN-LSTM, and incorporating an ensemble learning approach with a voting classifier, the system improves detection accuracy and reliability. A web interface built with Streamlit allows users to test text inputs and understand model decisions through explainability tools like SHAP and LIME. The best model achieved an accuracy of 88% with strong precision and recall, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed solution in detecting hate speech while mainta CNN_LSTM Training Phase ining interpretability and ease of use.
