A Computational Analysis of the Dehumanisation of Migrants from Syria and Ukraine in Slovene News Media (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Dehumanisation involves the perception and/or treatment of a social group’s members as less than human. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a new sentiment resource to make it easier to transfer to other languages and to evaluate and use . they then apply the method to study attitudes to migration expressed in Slovene newspapers, and examine how this discourse changed between the 2015-16 migration crisis and the 2022-23 period following the war in Ukraine. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method is easier to transfer to other languages and evaluates . it combines zero-shot cross-lingual valence and arousal detection with statistical significance testing to examine attitudes to migration expressed in Slovene newspapers . |
A Computational Framework to Identify Self-Aspects in Text (2025.acl-srw)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a Ph.D. proposal aims to identify Self-aspects in text, which are underexplored in natural language processing . many aspects of the Self align with psychological and other well-researched phenomena . |
| Approach: | They propose to develop a computational framework to identify Self-aspects in text . they will use an ontology of Self-facets and an annotated gold-standard dataset . |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework will evaluate discriminative models, generative large language models, embedding-based retrieval approaches against four main criteria: interpretability, ground-truth adherence, accuracy, and computational efficiency. |
