OBOME - Ontology based opinion mining in UBIPOL
Ontologies have a special role in the UBIPOL system, they help to structure the policy related context, provide conceptualization for policy domain and use in the opinion mining process. In this work we presented a system called Ontology Based Opinion Mining Engine (OBOME) for analyzing a domain-specific opinion corpus by first assisting the user with the creation of a domain ontology from the corpus. We determined the polarity of opinion on the various domain aspects. In the former step, the policy domain aspect has are identified (namely which policy category is represented by the concept). This identification is supported by the policy modelling ontology, which describe the most important policy – related classes and structure. Then the most informative documents from the corpus are extracted and asked the user to create a set of aspects and related keywords using these documents. In the latter step, we used the corpus specific ontology to model the domain and extracted aspect-polarity associations using grammatical dependencies between words. Later, summarized results are shown to the user to analyze and store. Finally, in an offline process policy modeling ontology is updated
Supporting text mining for e-Science: the challenges for Grid-enabled natural language processing
Over the last few years, language technology has moved rapidly from 'applied research' to 'engineering', and from small-scale to large-scale engineering. Applications such as advanced text mining systems are feasible, but very resource-intensive, while research seeking to address the underlying language processing questions faces very real practical and methodological limitations. The e-Science vision, and the creation of the e-Science Grid, promises the level of integrated large-scale technological support required to sustain this important and successful new technology area. In this paper, we discuss the foundations for the deployment of text mining and other language technology on the Grid - the protocols and tools required to build distributed large-scale language technology systems, meeting the needs of users, application builders and researchers
Natural language processing
Beginning with the basic issues of NLP, this chapter aims to chart the major research activities in this area since the last ARIST Chapter in 1996 (Haas, 1996), including: (i) natural language text processing systems - text summarization, information extraction, information retrieval, etc., including domain-specific applications; (ii) natural language interfaces; (iii) NLP in the context of www and digital libraries ; and (iv) evaluation of NLP systems
Tweeting your Destiny: Profiling Users in the Twitter Landscape around an Online Game
Social media has become a major communication channel for communities
centered around video games. Consequently, social media offers a rich data
source to study online communities and the discussions evolving around games.
Towards this end, we explore a large-scale dataset consisting of over 1 million
tweets related to the online multiplayer shooter Destiny and spanning a time
period of about 14 months using unsupervised clustering and topic modelling.
Furthermore, we correlate Twitter activity of over 3,000 players with their
playtime. Our results contribute to the understanding of online player
communities by identifying distinct player groups with respect to their Twitter
characteristics, describing subgroups within the Destiny community, and
uncovering broad topics of community interest.Comment: Accepted at IEEE Conference on Games 201
Improving Hypernymy Extraction with Distributional Semantic Classes
In this paper, we show how distributionally-induced semantic classes can be
helpful for extracting hypernyms. We present methods for inducing sense-aware
semantic classes using distributional semantics and using these induced
semantic classes for filtering noisy hypernymy relations. Denoising of
hypernyms is performed by labeling each semantic class with its hypernyms. On
the one hand, this allows us to filter out wrong extractions using the global
structure of distributionally similar senses. On the other hand, we infer
missing hypernyms via label propagation to cluster terms. We conduct a
large-scale crowdsourcing study showing that processing of automatically
extracted hypernyms using our approach improves the quality of the hypernymy
extraction in terms of both precision and recall. Furthermore, we show the
utility of our method in the domain taxonomy induction task, achieving the
state-of-the-art results on a SemEval'16 task on taxonomy induction.Comment: In Proceedings of the 11th Conference on Language Resources and
