Despite the importance of understanding causality, corpora addressing causal relations are limited. There is a discrepancy between existing annotation guidelines event causality and conventional that focus more on linguistics. Many restrict themselves to include only explicit or clause-based arguments. Therefore, we propose an schema for addresses these concerns. We annotated 3,559 sentences from protest news with labels whether it contains not. Our corpus known as Causal News Corpus (CNC)....

Abstract We describe a gold standard corpus of protest events that comprise various local and international English language sources from countries. The contains document-, sentence-, token-level annotations. This facilitates creating machine learning models automatically classify news articles extract event-related information, constructing knowledge bases enable comparative social political science studies. For each source, the annotation starts with random samples continues drawn using...

We describe our effort on automated extraction of socio-political events from news in the scope a workshop and shared task we organized at Language Resources Evaluation Conference (LREC 2020). believe event studies computational linguistics social political sciences should further support each other order to enable large scale information collection across sources, countries, languages. The consists regular research papers task, which is about sentence coreference identification (ESCI),...

Twitter is a social network, which contains information of the city events (concerts, festival, etc.), problems (traffic, collision, and road incident), news, feelings people, etc. For these reasons, there are many studies, use tweet data to detect useful support smart management. In this paper, ways finding citizen with their locations by using discussed. Tweets in Turkish language from Aegean Region Turkey were used for study. It aimed form system, detects citizens extracts problems' exact...
This paper tests the validity of a digital trace database (Politus) obtained from Twitter, with recently conducted representative social survey, focusing on use case religiosity in Turkey. Religiosity scores research are extracted using supervised machine learning under Politus project. The validation analysis depends two steps. First, we compare performances alternative tweet-to-user transformation strategies, and second, test for impact resampling via MRP technique. Estimates examined at...

Using artificial intelligence, this article explores the intricate dynamics between ideologies, emotions, and political preferences of electorate in Turkey. Utilizing a dataset one billion posts from X (formerly Twitter), study maps out opinions, focusing on support for presidential candidates, ideological stances, collective emotions around pivotal 2023 Turkish elections. We discuss limitations conventional survey techniques introduce an ERC‐funded Politus project that processes digital...
What is the most optimal way of creating a gold standard corpus for training machine learning system that designed automatically collecting protest information in cross-country context? We show and testing models on basis randomly chosen news articles from archives yields better performance than selecting keyword filtering, which prevalent method currently used automated event coding. advance this new bottom-up approach to ensure generalizability reliability comparative collection...
