Who am I and why am I here?
I am a second-year Masters student in Robotics Institute, mostly interested in data-driven computer vision and machine learning problems. By taking this course I would like to learn about the process of massive information propagation through social media. For the course project, currently I'm thinking of doing opinion mining for internet images (e.g. Flickr or Amazon) from the associated user comments.
