SCILA’s academic supervisor

Since early 2020, prof. Paolo Rosso has been involved in two SCILA’s projects – EthnoHate on ethnic hate speech prediction in social media texts and BeWell on the prediction of subjective well-being from OSN and smartphone usage data. As a well-known computer scientist, in his capacity of the academic supervisor of the laboratory for social and cognitive informatics, he is to strengthen the “informatics” component of the lab’s research. As the lab is headed by Olessia Koltsova who is a sociologist, it will now get a chance to become a truly interdisciplinary team with strong competencies both in social and computer sciences.
