++ Overview ++
The increasing availability of text information in the form of news articles, comments or posts in social networks poses new challenges for those who aim to understand the storyline of an event. Although understanding natural language text has improved over the last couple of years with several research works emerging on the grounds of information extraction and text mining, the problem of constructing consistent narrative structures is yet to be solved. It is not only the algorithms that need to be improved, but also the state-of-the-art that needs to advance in order to provide methods that automatically identify, interpret and relate the different elements of a narrative which will be likely spread from different sources. In this workshop we aim to foster the discussion of recent advances in the link between Information Retrieval (IR) and formal narrative representations from texts. More specifically, we aim to capture a wide range of multidisciplinary issues related to the text-to-narrative-structure and to its various related tasks. This is a very rich line of research that poses many challenging problems in information retrieval, text mining, information extraction, computational linguistics and automatic production of media content.
++ List of Topics ++
Research works submitted to the workshop should foster the scientific advance on all aspects of storyline generation from texts including but not limited to narrative and content generation, formal representation, and visualization of narratives. This includes the following topics (not limited):
- Event Identification
- Narrative Representation Language
- Sentiment and Opinion Detection
- Argumentation Mining
- Narrative Summarization
- Multi-modal Summarization
- Storyline Visualization
- Temporal Aspects of Storylines
- Story Evolution and Shift Detection
- Causal Relation Extraction and Arrangement
- Evaluation Methodologies for Narrative Extraction
- Big data applied to Narrative Extraction
- Resources and Dataset showcase
- Personalization and Recommendation
- User Profiling and User Behavior Modeling
- Credibility
- Models for detection and removal of bias in generated stories
- Ethical and fair narrative generation
- Fact Checking
- Bots Influence
- Bias in Text Documents
- Automatic Timeline Generation
++ Submission Guidelines ++
We invite two kinds of submissions:
- Research papers (max 7 pages + references)
- Demos and position papers (max 5 pages + references)
Papers must be submitted electronically in PDF format through Easy Chair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=text2story2019). All submissions must be in English and formatted according to LNCS style (http://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines)
Submissions will be peer-reviewed by at least three members of the programme committee. The accepted papers will appear in the proceedings published at CEUR workshop proceedings (usually indexed on DBLP).
++ Workshop Format ++
Participants of accepted papers will be given 15 minutes for oral presentations. All papers will also be also presented in an interactive poster session.
