I also love the thread Yosem. Would anyone like to work on a project along these lines?
- fake news detection - alt-right detection I have been drafting an announcement for a sponsored student data challenge using a fixed set of 20 million Trump tweets. Is this something that members of the list would like to see students take part in? Do people think these difficult/contested concepts are readily detectable by humans and/or machines? Are there a few professors out there willing to serve as judges for the output of the student data challenge if we run it in early 2017? Please email me directly off list (s...@texifter.com) if this is of interest. ~Stu Stu Shulman <https://twitter.com/StuartWShulman> Amherst Regional High School, CoachMA Olympic Development Program, Assistant Coach On Fri, Dec 9, 2016 at 5:54 AM, MC Cambre <mcam...@ualberta.ca> wrote: > I love this thread.
