Hate speech expresses antisocial behavior. In many countries, online hate 
speech is punishable by the law. Manual analysis of such content and its moderation 
are impossible. An effective solution to this problem would be the automatic 
detection of hate comments. Until now, for hate speech detection, only text 
documents have been used. We would like to advance the knowledge about hate speech 
detection by exploring a new type of document: audio documents.
 
We would like to develop a new methodology to automatically detect hate speech, 
based on Machine Learning and Deep Neural Networks using text and audio.
 
Required Skills: The candidate should have theoretical and a moderate practical experience
with Deep Learning, including a good practice in Python and an understanding of deep
learning libraries like Pytorch. The knowledge of NLP or signal processing will be helpful.

multisource (source separation, robust speech recognition), multilingual (computer 
assisted language learning), and multimodal aspects.
