LMU News: Two LMU Research Projects Awarded ERC Grants
The Project Respond2Hate of MCML PI Hinrich Schütze Was Successful
MCML PI Hinrich Schütze received a Proof of Concept Grant for his project "Respond2Hate" (Responsive classifiers against hate speech in low-resource settings).
In his project, Professor Schütze is seeking to develop a pilot browser extension that allows users to locally remove hateful content from their social media feeds themselves – including in countries with little representation in current training datasets. To this end, he will validate self-developed adaptive models, continuously enhanced by means of natural language processing and deep learning techniques, for the filtering of hate speech.
