[Corpora-List] Extended deadline - 1st Workshop on Approaches to Mining Mass Opinion for Business Intelligence (AMMBI) - ICAI 2010

[ester]

*1st Workshop on Approaches to Mining Mass Opinion for Business 
Intelligence (AMMBI)*
*http://gplsi.dlsi.ua.es/congresos/ammbi2010/***
*(Held in conjunction with ICAI 2010 - Las Vegas, Nevada, USA)*
* *
* **Call for papers*

Mass opinion mining is related both to subjectivity and sentiment 
analysis, two tasks of growing importance in the field of Natural 
Language Processing (NLP), as well as other disciplines such as 
economics, psychology and sociology. Although studied separately, the 
task can benefit from an interdisciplinary approach, due to its 
difficulty and the multitude of facets that it contains.
The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers in 
computational linguistics, dealing with subjectivity and sentiment 
analysis, but also from other disciplines related to the task of mass 
opinion mining and/or estimation: psychologists, sociologists, 
economists etc., with the objective of facilitating an interdisciplinary 
dialogue on the analysis, requirements, issues and applications of the 
study and modelling of mass opinion.

***Topics of interest*

We welcome original and unpublished evaluation or position papers on all 
(mass) opinion mining issues. Some suggested topics include, but are not 
limited to:
· Mass opinion estimation based on NLP and statistical models
· Opinion mining and behavioural studies in the context of social networks
· Opinion retrieval, extraction, categorization, aggregation and 
summarization
· Information bias and perspective determination for source trust and 
reputation determination
· Computational analysis of persuasion techniques
· Correlation of factual and opinionated data based on socio-economic 
models
· User profile definition for personalized retrieval
· Topic relevance analysis for information monitoring
· Topic and sentiment studies and applications of topic-sentiment analysis
· Use of Semantic Web technologies for factual and subjective data analysis
· Proposals involving the computational treatment of large amounts of 
subjective data
· Applications of opinion mining systems to real-world business scenarios
