SemEval-2017 Task 6: \#HashtagWars: Learning a Sense of Humor

no code implementations SEMEVAL 2017 Peter Potash, Alexey Romanov, Anna Rumshisky

This paper describes a new shared task for humor understanding that attempts to eschew the ubiquitous binary approach to humor detection and focus on comparative humor ranking instead.

Tracking Bias in News Sources Using Social Media: the Russia-Ukraine Maidan Crisis of 2013--2014

no code implementations WS 2017 Peter Potash, Alexey Romanov, Anna Rumshisky, Mikhail Gronas

We show that on the task of predicting which side is likely to prefer a given article, a Naive Bayes classifier can record 90. 3{\%} accuracy looking only at domain names of the news sources.

RuSentiment: An Enriched Sentiment Analysis Dataset for Social Media in Russian

no code implementations COLING 2018 Anna Rogers, Alexey Romanov, Anna Rumshisky, Svitlana Volkova, Mikhail Gronas, Alex Gribov

This paper presents RuSentiment, a new dataset for sentiment analysis of social media posts in Russian, and a new set of comprehensive annotation guidelines that are extensible to other languages.

What's in a Name? Reducing Bias in Bios without Access to Protected Attributes

no code implementations NAACL 2019 Alexey Romanov, Maria De-Arteaga, Hanna Wallach, Jennifer Chayes, Christian Borgs, Alexandra Chouldechova, Sahin Geyik, Krishnaram Kenthapadi, Anna Rumshisky, Adam Tauman Kalai

In the context of mitigating bias in occupation classification, we propose a method for discouraging correlation between the predicted probability of an individual's true occupation and a word embedding of their name.
