Dr Cass Zhixue Zhao

I am a Postdoc researcher in the department of computer science, working with Dr Nikos Aletras. Our research project focuses on developing explainable NLP models, particularly for the applications for online misinformation. Before my postdoc position, I also worked as a research assistant in the Department of Computer Science for a cross-discipline research funded by National Institute for Health Research, aiming to build an advanced retrieval system for inequality in public health. My PhD research applied transfer learning to hate speech detection tasks.
