Buona Vista, Singapore A*STAR Agency for Science, Technology and Research Full time

The Internet and digital platforms provide instant ways for people to connect, socialize and share information and their thoughts and feelings. At the same time, the spread of harmful online content gets easier, cheaper, and faster.

The Centre for Advanced Technologies in Online Safety (CATOS), based in the Institute of High Performance Computing, A*STAR, seeks to deliver social technology that benefits people (?tech for good?) and connects them better and at scale. It leverages multi-disciplinary research expertise in affective computing, social media analytics, multimedia forensics, language intelligence, and communication sciences, and aims to improve the ability of government?s, industry?s and people?s online safety by developing advanced tech solutions that solve pertinent problems of online harms.

One of the major outcomes of the Centre?s research programme is to produce an integrated platform of multimodal deep-tech solutions that equips different groups of users to address various online harms, including but not limited to preventing, detecting, and proactively containing deep fakes, non-factual claims, propaganda, extremism, hate speech, and malicious bots. These capabilities and advances will be projected internationally to help establish Singapore as a thought leader in this crucial area.
