#introductions Hey everyone. I am a PhD Student in Computational Linguistics. My main research interest is computational linguistics for under resourced languages. I am particularly interested in computational linguistics for Bantu languages because of the extremely complex morphology that they bring to the table.
I am also doing research in sentiment analysis on stance detection and irony/sarcasm detection. Most of my research is on machine learning approaches.
IU graduate student workers strike has ended
The semester ended on Friday and the Graduate Student Workers Union voted to end the strike yesterday. The strike will resume when classes start back up in the fall. They want to expand the union to include research assistants and new associate instructors over the summer.

Is Science Built on the Shoulders of Women? A Study of Gender Differences in Contributorship | Macaluso et al (2016) | AAMC
-Women were significantly more likely to be associated with performing experiments
-Differences in labor roles may explain disparities in the rates of scientific publication between men and #women (e.g., first and last #AuthorPositions)
-Disparities have implications for (...) the evaluation of scholars, and the #ethical conduct of #science.
Does anybody know a Fediverse instance dedicated to teachers? In scholar.social I have found some, but maybe there is one dedicated to them only, without researchers on the mix ;)
