Did that happen? Predicting Social Media Posts that are Indicative of what happened in a scene: A case study of a TV show (2022.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Prior work identified and summarized scenes associated with a TV show by selecting a few representative social media posts (5 posts) that were published during the timeline of the scenes. |
| Approach: | They propose a method to predict social media posts associated with a TV show from those that are not-indicative. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method can predict posts indicative of what happened in a scene from those that are not-indicative based on high AUC's on social media posts associated with a popular TV show . |

| Challenge: | Low-resource languages often face challenges in acquiring high-quality language data due to the reliance on translation-based methods, which introduce the translationese effect. |
| Approach: | They propose a method that uses storyboards to elicit more fluent and natural sentences from native speakers without direct exposure to the source text. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method compared with traditional translation-based methods in terms of accuracy and fluency. |
