Project

Transparent Classification for Protest Coding from Images

We present a new method that makes the classification of images more transparent.

Project

Protest Image Dataset

The Protest Image Dataset is a new data collection project that includes images from social media with an emphasis on political protests. The dataset contains, besides the images themselves, variables on location, time, as well as a hand-annotated protest variable.

Project

Wickedonna

Two activists reported in the Wickedonna blog about protests in China. They collected social media posts for over 74,000 protest events containing images of the protesters, security forces, banners and more. We will improve the prediction of protest in images by using the images from this blog.
