Synthesized Social Signals: Computationally-Derived Social Signals from Account Histories

Social signals are crucial when we decide if we want to interact with someone online.

In this paper, we propose a new idea called synthesized social signals (S3s): social signals computationall…

Managing Deviant Behavior in Online Communities III

How do we determine what content and behavior in an online environment does not fit with community standards? What is "harassment" and how has the problem evolved over time?
