The automatic recognition of the rhetori- cal function of citations in scientic text has many applications, from improvement of impact factor calculations to text sum- marisation and more informative citation indexers. Citation function is dened as the author's reason for citing a given pa- per (e.g. acknowledgement of the use of the cited method). We show that our annotation scheme for citation func- tion is reliable, and present a supervised machine learning framework to automati- cally classify citation function, which uses several shallow and linguistically-inspired features. We nd, amongst other things, a strong relationship between citation func- tion and sentiment classication.

We study the interplay of the discourse struc- ture of a scientic argument with formal ci- tations. One subproblem of this is to clas- sify academic citations in scientic articles ac- cording to their rhetorical function, e.g., as a rival approach, as a part of the solution, or as a awed approach that justies the cur- rent research. Here, we introduce our anno- tation scheme with 12 categories, and present an agreement study

"Concordle has one point common with Wordle: it makes word clouds. But these are only text, and in a browser in general the choice of fonts is limited, so the clouds are not so very pretty. But it is much more clever: All the words in the cloud are clickable, i.e. they have links to concordancer function. "

Min -- can't remember if I shared this with you before. A qurkiy little tool that might be useful in terms of training. See 'wikisheet' at http://kristinaweb20.pbworks.com/activity+-+introduction+to+ddl for an 'introduction to data-driven learning' with a Concordle task.

A fantastic site! One stop shopping for anything to do with lexis.
