Manoel Horta Ribeiro
I'm a first year PhD student at EPFL🇨🇭 working at dlab with Bob West. I'm also a member of iDrama🎭. My research focuses on the dynamics of content creation and consumption in Social Networks and Fringe Communities I received my B.S./M.S. in Computer Science from UFMG🇧🇷, where I worked with Wagner Meira Jr. and Virgílio Almeida.
The research I've been involved with has been published in venues such as: the Web Conference (WWW), the AAAI International Conf. on Weblogs and Social Media (ICWSM), the ACM Conf. on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency (FAccT), and Nature Communications. Also, it has received substantial media attention, getting covered by WIRED, MIT Tech Review, NBC, and others.
Robert West
Robert West is a tenure-track assistant professor of computer science at EPFL, where he heads the Data Science Lab. In his research, he develops and applies techniques in machine learning, computational social science, natural language processing, social network analysis, and data mining. Bob also collaborates closely with the Wikimedia Foundation, in his role as a Wikimedia Research Fellow. Bob’s work has won several awards, including best/outstanding paper awards at ICWSM’21, ICWSM’19, and WWW’13, a best-paper runner-up award at WWW’16, a Google Faculty Research Award, a Facebook Research Award, a Hewlett-Packard Graduate Fellowship, and a Facebook Graduate Fellowship. He is actively involved in the research community, e.g., as an Associate Editor of ICWSM and EPJ Data Science and as a co-founder of the Wiki Workshop (held at WWW and ICWSM) and the Applied Machine Learning Days. Bob received his PhD in Computer Science from Stanford University, his MSc from McGill University, Canada, and his undergraduate degree from Technische Universität München, Germany.[Last updated: 25 Aug 2021]
