Towards trustworthy and explainable AI for multimodal hate content moderation
ISTD PhD Oral Defence Seminar by Hee Ming Shan – The proliferation of hateful multimodal content, particularly in the form of hateful memes, poses significant threats to online safety and social cohesion. Although deep learning systems, especially vision-language models, are essential to automated multimodal content moderation, they operate as black boxes, offering limited explainability into their decision-making processes.
