Foromat
Machine learning to qualify postings
The research and development project Foromat was the first endeavour of OFAI to bring the benefits of machine learning to news media. Media owners and publishers have a legal (and moral) obligation to monitor the content published on their pages. Foromat helps the forum moderators to identify postings that must not be published due to their infringing, abusive and offending content. The system is successfully running at Der Standard since 2005.
