Automatic classification of folk narrative genres
Folk narratives are a valuable resource for humanities and social science researchers. This paper focuses on automatically recognizing folk narrative genres, such as urban legends, fairy tales, jokes and riddles. We explore the effectiveness of lexical, structural, stylistic and domain specific features. We find that it is possible to obtain a good performance using only shallow features. As da...
متن کاملExploring Topic Continuation Follow-up Questions using Machine Learning
Some of the Follow-Up Questions (FU Q) that an Interactive Question Answering (IQA) system receives are not topic shifts, but rather continuations of the previous topic. In this paper, we propose an empirical framework to explore such questions, with two related goals in mind: (1) modeling the different relations that hold between the FU Q’s answer and either the FU Q or the preceding dialogue,...
متن کاملNarrative Structure of Mathematical Texts
There are many styles for the narrative structure of a mathematical document. Each mathematician has its own conventions and traditions about labeling portions of texts (e.g., chapter, section, theorem or proof ) and identifying statements according to their logical importance (e.g., theorem is more important than lemma). Such narrative/structuring labels guide the reader’s navigation of the te...

متن کاملDiscovering structural similarities in narrative texts using event alignment algorithms
This thesis is about the discovery of structural similarities across narrative texts. We will describe a method that is based on event alignments created automatically on automatically preprocessed texts. This opens up a path to large-scale empirical research on structural similarities across texts. Structural similarities are of interest for many areas in the humanities and social sciences. We...
