Agreeing to Disagree: Annotating Offensive Language Datasets with Annotators’ Disagreement

1 code implementation EMNLP 2021 Elisa Leonardelli, Stefano Menini, Alessio Palmero Aprosio, Marco Guerini, Sara Tonelli

Since state-of-the-art approaches to offensive language detection rely on supervised learning, it is crucial to quickly adapt them to the continuously evolving scenario of social media.

RAMBLE ON: Tracing Movements of Popular Historical Figures

no code implementations EACL 2017 Stefano Menini, Rachele Sprugnoli, Giovanni Moretti, Enrico Bignotti, Sara Tonelli, Bruno Lepri

We present RAMBLE ON, an application integrating a pipeline for frame-based information extraction and an interface to track and display movement trajectories.

Topic-Based Agreement and Disagreement in US Electoral Manifestos

no code implementations EMNLP 2017 Stefano Menini, Federico Nanni, Simone Paolo Ponzetto, Sara Tonelli

We present a topic-based analysis of agreement and disagreement in political manifestos, which relies on a new method for topic detection based on key concept clustering.

Creating a WhatsApp Dataset to Study Pre-teen Cyberbullying

no code implementations WS 2018 Rachele Sprugnoli, Stefano Menini, Sara Tonelli, Filippo Oncini, Enrico Piras

Although WhatsApp is used by teenagers as one major channel of cyberbullying, such interactions remain invisible due to the app privacy policies that do not allow ex-post data collection.

Agreement and Disagreement: Comparison of Points of View in the Political Domain

no code implementations COLING 2016 Stefano Menini, Sara Tonelli

The automated comparison of points of view between two politicians is a very challenging task, due not only to the lack of annotated resources, but also to the different dimensions participating to the definition of agreement and disagreement.

Creating a Multimodal Dataset of Images and Text to Study Abusive Language

no code implementations5 May 2020 Alessio Palmero Aprosio, Stefano Menini, Sara Tonelli

We find that users judge the same images in different ways, although the presence of a person in the picture increases the probability to get an offensive comment.

Building a Multilingual Taxonomy of Olfactory Terms with Timestamps

no code implementations LREC 2022 Stefano Menini, Teresa Paccosi, Serra Sinem Tekiroğlu, Sara Tonelli

Olfactory references play a crucial role in our memory and, more generally, in our experiences, since researchers have shown that smell is the sense that is most directly connected with emotions.
