UTCNN: a Deep Learning Model of Stance Classification on Social Media Text

no code implementations COLING 2016 Wei-Fan Chen, Lun-Wei Ku

Experiments performed on Chinese Facebook data and English online debate forum data show that UTCNN achieves a 0. 755 macro average f-score for supportive, neutral, and unsupportive stance classes on Facebook data, which is significantly better than models in which either user, topic, or comment information is withheld.
