Our paper "Exploring ChatGPT for Toxicity Detection in GitHub" has been accepted at @ICSEconf NIER.

We explored various prompts, including justifications for model outputs. We integrated ChatGPT into Slack to design a bot that is capable of generating non-toxic alternatives.

Emotions play a significant role in teamwork and collaborative activities like software development. Our paper @FSEconf explores the broad spectrum of emotions expressed in developer chats. 🧵

Toxic language can harm open-source collaboration, especially for underrepresented contributors. Our study examines toxic behavior in open-source using Moral Foundations Theory. 🧵

We investigated various dimensions of trust exhibited on GitHub pull requests. Our findings provide preliminary insights into cues that might be helpful to automatically assess team dynamics and establish interpersonal trust in OSS teams.

Our paper "Interpersonal trust in OSS: Exploring dimensions of trust in GitHub pull requests" with @amirali_sajadi @kostata got accepted to the @ICSEconf NIER track 🎉. Very proud of my Ph.D. student Amirali for his first publication!
Preprint to follow.

[Preetha Chatterjee @PreethaChatterj]

I am creating a list of books to read/buy for professional development, including productivity, writing, and technical books (Software Engineering, Machine Learning, and Natural Language Processing). What are your recommendations?

[SOAR Lab @soar_lab]

SOAR lab welcomes our first Ph.D. student @amirali_sajadi to the team! Amirali's research interests are in software engineering (SE), and ML applications to SE.

[Preetha Chatterjee @PreethaChatterj]

The preprint is ready now: https://t.co/NpFTzggQwV

[Preetha Chatterjee @PreethaChatterj]

Understanding the quality of the information in the mining source is essential for building effective data-driven software tools. I will be presenting our @acm_tosem paper "Automatically Identifying the Quality of Developer Chats for Post Hoc Use" as a J1 at @ASE_conf 2022.

[Preetha Chatterjee @PreethaChatterj]

Our paper "Data Augmentation for Improving Emotion Recognition in Software Engineering Communication" by Imran, Yashashvi, myself, and @kostata is accepted at @ASE_conf. Preprint to come soon! 🧵⬇️
