Future short term goals of research in computational analysis of stylistics in text
Shlomo Argamon, Jussi Karlgren, James G. Shanahan · ACM SIGIR Forum · 2005
The first workshop on stylistic analysis of text for information access was held on the day following the 2005 SIGIR conference. This workshop addressed the automatic analysis and extraction of stylistic aspects of natural language texts. Style, roughly defined as the 'manner' in which something is expressed, as opposed to the 'content' of a message is usually disregarded by information access applications as having no bearing on the target notion of relevance: systems have typically focused on the "factual" aspect of content analysis.
