ITGETARUNS A Linguistic Rule-Based System for Pragmatic Text Processing
Rodolfo Delmonte · Pisa University Press eBooks · 2014
We present results obtained by our system ITGetaruns for all tasks. It is a linguistic rule-based system in its bottom-up version that computes a complete parser of the input text. On top of that it produces semantics at different levels which is then used by the algorithm for sentiment and polarity detection. Our results are not remarkable apart from the ones related to Irony detection, where we ranked fourth over eight participants. The results were characterized by our intention to favour Recall over Precision and this is also testified by Recall values for Polarity which in one case rank highest of all.
