Extending the MPC corpus to Chinese and Urdu - A Multiparty Multi-Lingual Chat Corpus for Modeling Social Phenomena in Language
In this paper, we report our efforts in building a multi-lingual multi-party online chat corpus in order to develop a firm understanding in a set of social constructs such as agenda control, influence, and leadership as well as to computationally model such constructs in online interactions.
Revealing Contentious Concepts Across Social Groups
The hypothesis of this work is that there are communities or groups which can be characterized by a network of concepts and the corresponding valuations of those concepts that are agreed upon by the members of the community.
Automatic Expansion of the MRC Psycholinguistic Database Imageability Ratings
Unfortunately, word imageability ratings were collected for only a limited number of words: 9, 240 words in English, 6, 233 in Spanish; and are unavailable at all in the other two languages studied: Russian and Farsi.
A Multi-Cultural Repository of Automatically Discovered Linguistic and Conceptual Metaphors
Researchers in the field can use this resource as a reference of typical metaphors used across these cultures.
ANEW+: Automatic Expansion and Validation of Affective Norms of Words Lexicons in Multiple Languages
The main contributions of this work are: 1) A general method for expansion and creation of lexicons with scores of words on psychological constructs such as valence, arousal or dominance; and 2) a procedure for ensuring validity of the newly constructed resources.
The Validation of MRCPD Cross-language Expansions on Imageability Ratings
In this article, we present a method to validate a multi-lingual (English, Spanish, Russian, and Farsi) corpus on imageability ratings automatically expanded from MRCPD (Liu et al., 2014).
TeamUNCC at SemEval-2018 Task 1: Emotion Detection in English and Arabic Tweets using Deep Learning
This paper describes TeamUNCC{'}s system to detect emotions in English and Arabic tweets.
A Survey of Natural Language Generation Techniques with a Focus on Dialogue Systems - Past, Present and Future Directions
We provide a comprehensive review towards building open domain dialogue systems, an important application of natural language generation.
I Stand With You: Using Emojis to Study Solidarity in Crisis Events
We study how emojis are used to express solidarity in social media in the context of two major crisis events - a natural disaster, Hurricane Irma in 2017 and terrorist attacks that occurred on November 2015 in Paris.
Emoji Usage Across Platforms: A Case Study for the Charlottesville Event
We study emoji usage patterns across two social media platforms, one of them considered a fringe community called Gab, and the other Twitter.
Towards Best Experiment Design for Evaluating Dialogue System Output
To overcome the limitations of automated metrics (e. g. BLEU, METEOR) for evaluating dialogue systems, researchers typically use human judgments to provide convergent evidence.
JUSTDeep at NLP4IF 2019 Task 1: Propaganda Detection using Ensemble Deep Learning Models
Defining {``}fake news{''} is not well established yet, however, it can be categorized under several labels: false, biased, or framed to mislead the readers that are characterized as propaganda.
Emotional Neural Language Generation Grounded in Situational Contexts
Emotional language generation is one of the keys to human-like artificial intelligence.
Natural Language Generation Using Reinforcement Learning with External Rewards
We propose an approach towards natural language generation using a bidirectional encoder-decoder which incorporates external rewards through reinforcement learning (RL).
Studying the Effects of Cognitive Biases in Evaluation of Conversational Agents
To investigate, we conducted a between-subjects study with 77 crowdsourced workers to understand the role of cognitive biases, specifically anchoring bias, when humans are asked to evaluate the output of conversational agents.
Detecting Asks in SE attacks: Impact of Linguistic and Structural Knowledge
Social engineers attempt to manipulate users into undertaking actions such as downloading malware by clicking links or providing access to money or sensitive information.
The Panacea Threat Intelligence and Active Defense Platform
We describe Panacea, a system that supports natural language processing (NLP) components for active defenses against social engineering attacks.
Adaptation of a Lexical Organization for Social Engineering Detection and Response Generation
We present a paradigm for extensible lexicon development based on Lexical Conceptual Structure to support social engineering detection and response generation.
Active Defense Against Social Engineering: The Case for Human Language Technology
We describe a system that supports natural language processing (NLP) components for active defenses against social engineering attacks.
Studying The Effect of Emotional and Moral Language on Information Contagion during the Charlottesville Event
We highlight the contribution of emotional and moral language towards information contagion online.
Understanding the Impact of Experiment Design for Evaluating Dialogue System Output
Evaluation of output from natural language generation (NLG) systems is typically conducted via crowdsourced human judgments.
Learning to Plan and Realize Separately for Open-Ended Dialogue Systems
Achieving true human-like ability to conduct a conversation remains an elusive goal for open-ended dialogue systems.
