@SalwaHoque Here’s a preprint: arxiv.org/pdf/2506.06816

@_dipto_das_ Also, I’m super excited to read the paper!

“The motivation to consider Bengali was clear, being a widely spoken and low-resource language. However, the reviewers missed some discussion on generalizing the conclusions of this paper to languages other than Bangali.” Is such a question usually asked for English nlp paper?

@FarhanaShahid_ @ishtiaqueSIA @HellinaNigatu @iamviiish interested.

@_dipto_das_ We are doing a study on this with @ishtiaqueSIA @HellinaNigatu @iamviiish and others ! If you’re interested/ available sometime to share your experience please let us know.

Excited to share that I have received a postdoctoral fellowship from @UofT_Pandemics! With this, I will continue to work on ethics, fairness, and bias of algorithmic systems with @ishtiaqueSIA at @UofTCompSci!

@DrSanchariDas @ACM_CSCW @GeorgeMasonU @MTU_ie @RitchieSchool @UofDenver Congrats!

Our poster won the Best Poster award @ACM_CSCW #CSCW2024 Thanks everyone who voted and appreciated our work! 🙏 @GeorgeMasonU @MTU_ie My last one with @RitchieSchool @UofDenver 😊

Missing #CSCW24 in person. If you are attending, join @_dipto_das_ 's presentation of our co-led paper, co-authored with @ishtiaqueSIA and colleagues, on the politics of fear and the experiences of harm faced by the Hindu religious minority on social media platforms. Details ⬇️

2️⃣ The second paper (co-led with @rifatR2D2, @ishtiaqueSIA) (scheduled at 3:22 PM) explores how fear impacts social media use by religious minorities, linking it to social conformity, misinformation, stigma, stereotypes, & postcolonial memory. Read here: doi.org/10.1145/3686926

1️⃣ The first paper (with Bryan Semaan) (scheduled at 12:05 PM) was part of my dissertation research, where I studied the YouTubers' motivations and strategies for engaging in transnational decolonial discourse. Check it out: doi.org/10.1145/3686900

Excited to share that I'll be presenting two papers I led at #CSCW24 on Wednesday (November 13)! 🖥️ I am attending virtually due to family obligations, so I will truly miss seeing friends and colleagues in person and visiting Costa Rica. Here are details about our papers: 🧵/3

Happy Diwali to all who celebrate! শুভ দীপাবলি

I am recruiting 1-2 PhD students for Fall 2025 at Princeton to work on Comp Social Science/Societal Impact of GenAI/GenAI for SocSci I wrote a bit about my research flavor & interests here: manoelhortaribeiro.github.io/advising Deadline: December 15th (#prospective" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">cs.princeton.edu/grad#prospecti…) Please boost!

@jesspater :')

@_dipto_das_ Feeling the same ire over here my friend!

If you don't know any reviewers who can evaluate qualitative work, say so in the CFP. Statements like "The paper is missing structure for replicating and scaling interviews" say little about the research but a lot about the reviewers' methodological prejudice and narrowness.

@MahaswetaChakr7 It's not a good experience. I am a mixed-method researcher, and I specify my expertise and limitations in reviews. For interdisciplinary work finding reviewers who r experts in everything a paper engages with is challenging, & they should admit if they r not experts in everything

@_dipto_das_ If it helps, I've been at the exact other end of epistemic culture wars :')

Great venue for sharing short projects and receiving feedback on in-progress works!

We know many people, including those in the research community, value seeing previous versions of webpages when available. That’s why beginning today, we're adding links to the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine to our "About this result" panel, to give people quick context and make this helpful information easily accessible through Search. To access archive links, click on the three dots next to a search result. In the window that appears, click on the "More about this page" button, then look for the "See previous versions on Internet Archive's Wayback Machine" link. It will take a day or so for this to fully roll out and be available for those searching in 40 different languages.
