We're massively proud of Vic Vict Oria for winning a super competitive Turing Enrichment Award from the Turing Institute The Alan Turing Institute for her exciting, fun & important work on memes and how & what they mean. Huge congratulations! 👏🎉 Science @ Hull HullCompSci DAIM at the University of Hull

Very interesting paper led by Eamonn on the (re-)definition of digital twins in offshore wind... and what a lovely time of year to be in Florence... 🌞

I'm at the Indian Institue of Technology Madras, in Chennai today talking about our collaborate Wind Energy Digital Twin work with IITM... Also happy to see the local monkeys show up for the talk!

Presenting our Big Data Analytics Research Group paper at NAACL HLT 2027, where we analyse propaganda in memes (and also answer important questions such as 'how many NLP researchers does it take to put up a poster') come and say hi if you're in Mexico City #NAACL2024

Congratulations again, Vic Vict Oria: very proud to see your name up on the Turing's award list (not one bit surprised though, of course)! ☺️

Big congratulations to our PhD researcher Samuel Rose Samuel Rose who will be working with Everybody Counts Everybodycounts Ltd on a Turing The Alan Turing Institute network internship to understand how dyscalculia, dyslexia & autism affect learning. Amazing - so proud of you, Sam! 👏🎉⭐️❤️

Well done, ladies! Thanks for your initiative and hopefully lots of good things will come from this! 🌟

Congratulations to Lydia for passing her PhD viva on the topic of "Using Big Data and AI to Dynamically Predict Flood Risk". We're proud of you!! ⭐️🎈

Sounds really exciting Dr. Joyjit Chatterjee 🇮🇳🇬🇧! A good debate to be a part of and certainly and area of growth for AI...

Fantastic news for a weekend sent off: Ifeoluwa Wuraola got her paper “Understanding Slang with LLMs: Modelling Cross-Cultural Nuances through Paraphrasing” accepted at the #EMNLP2024 main conference in Miami 🌞 this Nov. Definitely top 10 BDA achievements this year! 🎉👏🏆

Congrats to Sam Rose Samuel Rose on his paper “One-Vs-Rest Neural Network English Grapheme Segmentation: A Linguistic Perspective”, accepted at #CoNLL2024! A great read that redefines the notion of grapheme in computational linguistics. A bunch of us are off to Miami, yay 🥳

The amazing KKC - one of our very talented BDA PhD researchers! 👏❤️

Incredible experience Dr. Joyjit Chatterjee 🇮🇳🇬🇧 -- looks like just the place and setting too for such a discussion 😊

Ife and Sam are in Miami this week presenting their work on cross-cultural sensitivity of LLMs and a novel approach to grapheme representation -- try to spot them in the picture!! (we can't either so far...)

What a fantastic endorsement of University of Hull and an asset to our research community 💫

Almost time to say good-bye to 2024. We can't wait for our next (and final) BDA Xmas workshop: bda-hull.github.io/publications/b…. Some of us will start a new adventure at Loughborough University in 2025, but all of us will keep working together. 🎄 🎁 🎅 🌟 ❄️ 🔔 👼 🍪 ⛄

⭐️Come and join us at Loughborough for a fully-funded PhD combining NLP and remote sensing for climate resilience: lboro.ac.uk/study/postgrad… 🌍 Applications close 16 Feb for an Oct 2025 start.

Good-bye everyone!! You can find us @ldr-lboro.bsky.social now🦋 Our research thrives on being open-minded, inclusive & ethically responsible in what we do and how we work together as a team. Sadly, X no longer seems the place to represent these values amongst all the noise... 👋
