The MuseAI website has been launched

The MuseAI project, supported by the European Media and Information Fund, has launched its website, which will be used for the project’s communication and dissemination purposes. Visitors will be able to find useful information regarding the project’s scope and objectives, its partners, as well as project deliverables and other useful resources. The MuseAI blog will be featuring project news, events as well as other interesting articles.

A few words about the project

The task of fact-checking is often laborious and time-consuming, due to the rapidly growing volume of online misinformation, the emergence of new social networks, the increasing use of information modalities other than text (videos, images, audio), and the use of opaque recommendation algorithms. To tackle this problem, MuseAI will make use of AI to detect and match suspicious claims. The project’s aim is to develop new tools that provide accurate claim detection and matching solutions that can accelerate and apply fact-checking processes in a range of contexts such as different social networks, articles, transcripts and more, and matching them to relevant and reliable information sources. The MuseAI project focuses on developing a multilingual claim detection and matching solution. It adopts an incremental approach, starting with Spanish and English and gradually incorporating more European languages, through use of NLP multilingual-based machine learning models. The objective of this multilingual approach is to attack the problem from its global perspective.
