Mentions
Building a Collaboration to Protect Human Rights Defenders
Bringing together the public and private sector — UN Human Rights and Dataminr — resulted in a unique AI model for detecting attacks against people working to safeguard human rights.
"An early version of the CEHA paper also won an outstanding award at the NLP for Positive workshop last month..."
"The AI team at Dataminr has 3 papers at the hashtag#acl2023 conference this week on topics ranging from AI for Good, hallucinations in LLMs, and event extraction..."
"Really proud of the work that two of our NLP scientists (Shihao Ran Di Lu) did on this collaboration! Great job!..."
