Amazon Mechanical Turk for Subjectivity Word Sense Disambiguation

In this paper, the authors discuss research on whether they can use Mechanical Turk (MTurk) to acquire good annotations with respect to gold-standard data, whether they can filter out low-quality workers (spammers), and whether there is a learning effect associated with repeatedly completing the same kind of task.

Towards a Domain Independent Semantics: Enhancing Semantic Representation with Construction Grammar (open access)

Towards a Domain Independent Semantics: Enhancing Semantic Representation with Construction Grammar

This paper shows results from an investigation whether a classifier can be taught to identify these constructions and consideration of the hypothesis that identifying construction types can improve the semantic interpretation of previously unseen predicate uses.

Text Mining for Automatic Image Tagging (open access)

Text Mining for Automatic Image Tagging

This paper introduces several extractive approaches for automatic image tagging, relying exclusively on information mined from texts. Through evaluations on two datasets, the authors show that their methods exceed competitive baselines by a large margin, and compare favorably with the state-of-the-art that uses both textual and image features.
