Finally! After a lot of work and especially a lot of stress during this summer, I was able to finish my master thesis and with it my master’s degree in business informatics. At the Technical University of Vienna, you do not get “MSc” as a title but “DiplomingenieurIn”, in short Dipl.-Ing. or DI.
The thesis itself compares modern deep-learning hate speech detection systems with rule-based hate speech detection systems, and analyzes the performance and also the explainability of those. I chose the topic because I am also pretty interested in chatbots (awesome what OpenAI’s ChatGPT can do!) but I did not have a lot of NLP (Natural Language Processing) experience beforehand. Thankfully, I learned a lot during this thesis and now I understand state-of-the-art NLP! Download it here:
