I still don't understand what they wanted to show? That they can make a program that dislikes non smiling portraits?

The actual abstract isn't as bad as a lot of what people think the paper might be about.quote:Social trust is linked to a host of positive societal outcomes, including improved economic performance, lower crime rates and more inclusive institutions. Yet, the origins of trust remain elusive, partly because social trust is difficult to document in time. Building on recent advances in social cognition, we design an algorithm to automatically generate trustworthiness evaluations for the facial action units (smile, eye brows, etc.) of European portraits in large historical databases. Our results show that trustworthiness in portraits increased over the period 1500–2000 paralleling the decline of interpersonal violence and the rise of democratic values observed in Western Europe. Further analyses suggest that this rise of trustworthiness displays is associated with increased living standards.

The main problem isn’t trying to quantify social trust (although that’s pretty bad already) but that they went „smiling=trustworthiness=social trust“ which is just mindbogglingly dumb. e: also quantifying the sincerity of a smile by measuring the degree of lip slope or w/e is, uh, System Metternich has a new favorite as of 17:38 on Sep 25, 2020 |

this is part of the thread but really deserves more attention https://mobile.twitter.com/baumard_nicolas/status/1308715652081999878 oh yeah looks like a real cool trend, weird tho how one of the outliers is China, and the United States is kind of low on the high gdp side, and yet these major, populous nations are given the same visual weight as Macedonia and Trinidad and Tobago. wild stuff.

Although if you don't want to read a whole thread, you can just look at this one graph: https://twitter.com/skyglowberlin/status/1309383493156302848 Take out the 1500s outliers and you obliterate any effect they were hoping to demonstrate.

Paladinus posted:GTA should be way higher than Harry Potter. It seems pretty accurate if you read it as public perception. The point that the book seems to make is that this is an arbitrary ranking based on cultural biases, which would place the transphobic children's book above the murder simulator. I like that CNN is placed in the fiction column.

For some reason I initially misinterpreted this as reading like one of those iceberg charts where the mainstream stuff is on the top tier and the deeper you got, the more obscure and niche it becomes. Could also be taken as implying that "high culture" is built on a foundation of Kim Kardasian and Ultimate Fighting. What was that similar chart from the 50's which said that the most highbrow reading was "criticism of criticism"?
