Welcome to the Computational Social Science Group
German group name: Social Media in soziotechnischen Systemen
Computational social science (CSS) investigates research questions from the social sciences through empirical data analyses. The CSS Group considers such questions from a natural language processing perspective primarily. Among the main research topics of the group are the computational analysis and synthesis of argumentation, the detection and mitigation of social bias and media bias in text, and the construction of human-like explanations in educational and explainable artificial intelligence.
