downloaded from here Climate change corpus: xml format As project output, we will
develop a tool able to automatically identify
arguments, their reasons, and supporting
evidence in unstructured text. We aim to
identify common patterns of arguments conveyed
by opposing parties, their justifications
relative to historical and present regional
contexts, or current norms. We will also analyse
the usage of evidence-based [2] arguments versus
subjective arguments. We are also interested in
stakeholder modeling that have different domain
knowledge and perspectives on the possible
solution to a given problem.
Context of the application
Our focus is on climate change and public opinion about it. There are some skepticism about whether is human-generated. There is also the need to distinguish between arguments conveyed by expert and non-expert agents. To increase the understanding of various arguments and pieces of evidence conveyed in the public arena we rely on textual entailment and the newly argumentation mining technology, that combines natural language processing with argumentation theory.
