🎉 Yay! Excited to *finally* be wrapping up this draft! The big problem we’re solving here is navigating computer vision tools to really predict human sentiment when they say they predict human sentiment. The solution is...
🚀Excited to present our project with @sirotkina_lene at #APSA2024! We propose a scalable solution for a big challenge in #computervision: how to predict visual sentiment-subjective interpretations&attitudes about visuals-when people disagree on what they feel about what they see

Absolutely incredible!
Now out in Nature Machine Intelligence, Emin Orhan shows how high-level visual representations are learnable from a child's proxy visual input, without strong inductive biases, and can be applied to a range of visual benchmarks.

Big thanks to the amazing @JawsPoliSci team—@erin_cikanek, @DrDRMiller, and moderator @abussing5—for such a smooth and well-organized workshop yesterday! Huge shoutout to @jasonanastas for reading our paper and sharing really valuable feedback. The workshop is a great chance to share, learn, and get feedback to keep improving 🙌

Looking forward to presenting tomorrow at @JawsPoliSci on visual sentiment models and how to improve them so they reflect real human attitudes (a paper with @olgasparyan). Please come at *3pm EST* and bring your questions! #VisualSentiment #PoliSci
Elena (@sirotkina_lene) will present "When Picture is not Complete: Decoding Visual Sentiment ofPolitical Imagery," which you can read here:

@ACassario I was thinking about how people form evaluative judgments rather than the ability to suppress immediate response. Maybe critical thinking is incorrect term, "reflective" attitude/thinking?
