Hi Everyone,
The next Research Showcase will be live-streamed this Wednesday, November 15, 2017 at 11:30 AM (PST) 18:30 UTC.
YouTube stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMENRAkeHnQ
As usual, you can join the conversation on IRC at #wikimedia-research. And, you can watch our past research showcases here https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Research/Showcase#November_2017.
This month's presentation:
Conversation Corpora, Emotional Robots, and Battles with BiasBy *Lucas Dixon (Google/Jigsaw)*I'll talk about interesting experimental setups for doing large-scale analysis of conversations in Wikipedia, and what it even means to grapple with the concept of conversation when one is talking about revisions on talk pages. I'll also describe challenges with having good conversations at scale, some of the dreams one might have for AI in the space, and I'll dig into measuring unintended bias in machine learning and what one can do to make ML more inclusive. This talk will cover work from the WikiDetox https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Detox project as well as ongoing research on the nature and impact of harassment in Wikipedia discussion spaces https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Study_of_harassment_and_its_impact – part of a collaboration between Jigsaw, Cornell University, and the Wikimedia Foundation. The ML model training code, datasets, and the supporting tooling developed as part of this project are openly available.
Many kind regards,
Sarah R. Rodlund Senior Project Coordinator-Product & Technology, Wikimedia Foundation srodlund@wikimedia.org
