DeepMoji is a project at the MIT Media Lab to understand emotional content, and nuances in language such as sarcasm and slang, by training a Machine Learning model with emojis. My role was to design the interface and develop a back-end infrastructure so that users can easily use the model, working alongside AI engineers and social scientists.

Built with Django and MySQL on the back-end, using the Tweepy API, and no framework on the front-end.
