A bit delayed due to what amounts to 24 hours of travel time but big landmark with my first #ICA23 presentation in collaboration with Emese Domahidi and Jingyuan Yu / @jingyuanyu@{sciences; bsky}.social. Many thanks to Hendrik Meyer, Tim Schatto-Eckrodt and Patrick Schwabl for the positive feedback and discussion afterwards.

📜📜📜How should we evaluate algorithms, and how can social science and computer science profit from each other to do so? 🧐Mario Haim, Julian Unkel, and I looked into how algorithmic systems are being studied using automated tools that mimic human behavior.

Interested in word embeddings?

📍On April 20th, CSS LMU lab member Patrick Schwabl will give a virtual talk on 'Measuring political positions using contextual word embeddings' at Munich🥨NLP.

🎞️ Already up on YouTube to re-watch or catch up if you missed today's talk about NLP in social sciences with Patrick Schwabl!

Had a great #ICA23 ! Interesting panels, poster sessions and receptions, hope to see you all in Australia next year.

Good morning Toronto! To excited to sleed any longer. Looking forward to #ICA23 . If you're into or interested in algorithmic auditing or automated browsing experiments, come to our panel 'Building Knowledge About Echo Chambers and Misinformation' on Friday morning 10:30.

🗓️ Already coming up this Thursday at 6pm:

Patrick Schwabl will talk about how advances in NLP made it possible to replace previously hand-coded analyses of political positions, e.g. from speeches or party manifestos.

Looking forward to my research stay in Israel with Christian Baden and Shira Dvir Gvirsman. If you are there in the coming weeks (or know someone who is) and want to talk research or just hang out, let know. I'm always in for a beer or coffee :)

Next ICA, we will hack again. If you're interested, please complete the (5 minutes) survey. That will help us organize. Sign-up opens soon. The survey does not bind you to anything! :)

They have a PhD workshop and are computational. Early career computationalists, this might be for you :)

Quick reminder: Come and join us tomorrow for a presentation about NLP use-cases in the social and political sciences with Patrick Schwabl 🙌

We find that aligning automated methods with the experimental research paradigm can greatly improve the study of algorithmically curated environments. Our paper offers five best-practice ideas to enhance reproducibility and transparency.
