If you're working on #ExplainableAI, #SHAP, or #Causality, we'd love for you to check it out!

Hi, so I've spent the past almost-decade studying research uses of public social media data, like e.g. ML researchers using content from Twitter, Reddit, and Mastodon.

Anyway, buckle up this is about to be a VERY long thread with lots of thoughts and links to papers. 🧵
First dataset for the new @huggingface.bsky.social @bsky.app community organisation: one-million-bluesky-posts 🦋

📊 1M public posts from Bluesky's firehose API
🔍 Includes text, metadata, and language predictions
🔬 Perfect to experiment with using ML for Bluesky 🤗

We're presenting, "Enhancing Interpretability using Human Similarity Judgements to Prune Word Embeddings", at the BlackboxNLP workshop in EMNLP2023. We improve prediction of human similarity judgments for co-hyponyms and provide interpretability of pruned embeddings. #MLSky #CogSci Link: t.ly/NTRRS

Finally opened my BlueSky account!

I'm Álvaro Parafita, PhD in Causal Estimation using estimand-agnostic frameworks, with a focus on Explainability and Fairness for ML black-boxes.

See you around here!
