Recognizing Reputation Defence Strategies in Critical Political Exchanges

摘要

We propose a new task of automatically detecting reputation defence strategies in the held of computational argumentation. We cast the problem as relation classification, where given a pair of reputation threat and reputation defence, we determine the reputation defence strategy. We annotate a dataset of parliamentary questions and answers with reputation defence strategies. We then propose a model based on supervised learning to address the detection of these strategies, and report promising experimental results.
