Definition: Given a meme and an entity, determine the role* of the entity in the meme: hero vs. villain vs. victim vs. other.
*The meme is to be analyzed from the perspective of the author of the meme
The entity is presented in a positive light
Glorified for their actions conveyed via the meme or gathered from background context
The entity is portrayed negatively, e.g., in an association with adverse traits like wickedness, cruelty, hypocrisy, etc.
The entity is portrayed as suffering the negative impact of someone else’s actions or conveyed implicitly within the meme.
The entity is not a hero, a villain, or a victim.
The official evaluation measure for the shared task is the weighted F1 score for the multi-class classification.
