Research summary
AI-generated

Dan Goldwasser works on natural language processing (NLP), the branch of computer science that builds computational methods for analyzing and understanding text and social media content. His recent work focuses on using large language models (LLMs) to detect underlying themes, moral framings, and ideological arguments in political and social media discourse, as well as multimodal understanding of emotion and social context in images and text. Much of this research combines human annotation with LLM assistance to study topics like misinformation, political polarization, and social justice movements.
