In this paper, we report on an effort to develop a gold standard for the intensity ordering of subjective adjectives. Rather than pursue a complete order as produced by paying attention to the mean scores of human ratings only, we take into account to what extent assessors consistently rate pairs of adjectives relative to each other. We show that different available automatic methods for producing polar intensity scores produce results that correlate well with our gold standard, and discuss some conceptual questions surrounding the notion of polar intensity.
We examine predicative adjectives as an unsupervised criterion to extract subjective adjectives. We do not only compare this criterion with a weakly supervised extraction method but also with gradable adjectives, i.e. another highly subjective subset of adjectives that can be extracted in an unsupervised fashion. In order to prove the robustness of this extraction method, we will evaluate the extraction with the help of two different state-of-the-art sentiment lexicons (as a gold standard).
This paper addresses the task of finding antecedents for locally uninstantiated arguments. To resolve such null instantiations, we develop a weakly supervised approach that investigates and combines a number of linguistically motivated strategies that are inspired by work on semantic role labeling and corefence resolution. The performance of the system is competitive with the current state-of-the-art supervised system.
