Argument Mining and Social Debates
نویسندگان
چکیده
With this demonstration we introduce AFAlpha, a prototype of an Argument Mining tool, working in unison with Quaestio-it, an online social debating platform. While AFAlpha extracts arguments from text, as well as attack and support relations between arguments, Quaestio-it is concerned with visualising and evaluating interactive debates. We thus use Quaestio-it to represent and visualise output from AFAlpha, with the goal of taking plain text, in our case online reviews, and representing it in the form of a debate.

Using Complex Argumentative Interactions to Reconstruct the Argumentative Structure of Large-Scale Debates
In this paper we consider the insights that can be gained by considering large scale argument networks and the complex interactions between their constituent propositions. We investigate metrics for analysing properties of these networks, illustrating these using a corpus of arguments taken from the 2016 US Presidential Debates. We present techniques for determining these features directly from...

متن کاملAssessing Convincingness of Arguments in Online Debates with Limited Number of Features
We propose a new method in the field of argument analysis in social media to determining convincingness of arguments in online debates, following previous research by Habernal and Gurevych (2016). Rather than using argument specific feature values, we measure feature values relative to the average value in the debate, allowing us to determine argument convincingness with fewer features (between...
