  12. Not every witness is equally appropriate S3K: Seeking Statement-Supporting top-K Witnesses 12/25

  13. Not every witness is equally appropriate Clearly in front of the line VS Some witnesses have more Authority than others (witness trust) S3K: Seeking Statement-Supporting top-K Witnesses 13/25

  14. Testimonies are not equally convincing Obama visited his home country Kenya. Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1961 Ledger's latest movie The Dark Knight topped the box office ... Ledger playing the Joker in The Dark Knight... S3K: Seeking Statement-Supporting top-K Witnesses 14/25

  15. Testimonies are not equally convincing Obama visited his home country Kenya. Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1961 Ledger's latest movie The Dark Knight topped the box office ... Ledger playing the Joker Persuasiveness of testimonies varies in The Dark Knight... (strength of statement support) S3K: Seeking Statement-Supporting top-K Witnesses 15/25

  16. The more the better Obama wasBornIn Hawaii Hawaii isPartOf USA The more statements covered the better (coverage) S3K: Seeking Statement-Supporting top-K Witnesses 16/25

  17. The more the better Obama wasBornIn Hawaii S3K: Seeking Statement-Supporting top-K Witnesses 17/25

  18. The more the better Obama wasBornIn Hawaii The more additional information about the topic (entities involved) the better (on-topicness) S3K: Seeking Statement-Supporting top-K Witnesses 18/25

  19. Criteria for ranking • Coverage – how many of the statements are covered in the document? • Persuasiveness – how convincing are the sources – Authority of the document – Strength of statement support • On-Topicness – is the focus of the document on the topic expressed by the statements? S3K: Seeking Statement-Supporting top-K Witnesses 19/25

  20. Criteria for ranking • Coverage – how many of the statements are covered in the document? 1) How to connect documents • Persuasiveness – how convincing are the with statements? 2) And how can we measure a sources document's persuasiveness? – Authority of the document – Strength of statement support • On-Topicness – is the focus of the document on the topic expressed by the statements? „Easy“: Appearances of the entities occurring in the statement(s) S3K: Seeking Statement-Supporting top-K Witnesses 20/25

  27. Evaluation Documents: ~180.000 from ClueWeb09 ⁺ • IE Parser: Modified SOFIE/PROSPERA system • Evaluation 1: • – Comparing different ranking approaches on prefiltered witness set • naive : only filtering • topic : mainly enity occurrences • persuade : aiming for persuasiveness • mix : balancing both aims • lucene : keyword search by entities on filtered subset ⁺ http://lemurproject.org/clueweb09.php/ S3K: Seeking Statement-Supporting top-K Witnesses 27/25

  28. Evaluation Evaluation 2: • – Comparing extraction based methods against plain keyword search on full document corpus • unfluc: e e – based on entities • unfluc: e r e – based on entities & manual relation formulation • unfluc: e p e – based on entities & best pattern for relation (highest confidence) S3K: Seeking Statement-Supporting top-K Witnesses 28/25
