Classifying Frames at the Sentence Level in News Articles
Nona Naderi, Graeme Hirst · 2017
Previous approaches to generic frame classification analyze frames at the document level.Here, we propose a supervised based approach based on deep neural networks and distributional representations for classifying frames at the sentence level in news articles.We conduct our experiments on the publicly available Media Frames Corpus compiled from the U.S. Newspapers.Using (B)LSTMs and GRU networks to represent the meaning of frames, we demonstrate that our approach yields at least 14-point improvement over several baseline methods.
