PetKaz at SemEval-2024 Task 8: Can Linguistics Capture the Specifics of LLM-generated Text? (2404.05483v1)

Abstract: In this paper, we present our submission to the SemEval-2024 Task 8 "Multigenerator, Multidomain, and Multilingual Black-Box Machine-Generated Text Detection", focusing on the detection of machine-generated texts (MGTs) in English. Specifically, our approach relies on combining embeddings from the RoBERTa-base with diversity features and uses a resampled training set. We score 12th from 124 in the ranking for Subtask A (monolingual track), and our results show that our approach is generalizable across unseen models and domains, achieving an accuracy of 0.91.
