A new research paper compares the effectiveness of masked language models (MLMs) and causal language models in detecting propaganda techniques. Using the SemEval-2020 Task 11 dataset and two prompting strategies, the study found that both types of models showed improvements over existing methods. The best-performing MLM achieved an F1 score of 63.18, while the best causal model reached 63.62. The research also noted that different models excel at identifying specific propaganda techniques, suggesting that further enhancements could come from fine-tuning, ensemble modeling, and larger datasets.
