A Cascaded Unsupervised-Supervised NLP Pipeline for Detecting Accusatory Language in Public Procurement· 检测公共采购中的责备语言的混合 NLP 模型

Public procurement involves the allocation of substantial financial resources; therefore, continuous oversight through audits, controls, and monitoring mechanisms is essential. However, stakeholder comments and publicly available government data are often underutilized, despite their potential to reveal procedural irregularities. To address this gap, this paper analyzes metadata from Ecuador's Sistema Oficial de Contratación Pública (SOCE, Official Public Procurement System), with particular emphasis on participant comments generated during the pre-contractual phase. We propose a hybrid modeling framework that integrates unsupervised clustering and supervised classification within a natural language processing (NLP) pipeline to uncover latent patterns and detect potentially irregular procu
