dc.description.abstract | Information formulated in natural language is being created at an incredible pace, far more quickly than we can make sense of it. Thus, computer algorithms for various kinds of text analytics have been developed to try to find nuggets of new, pertinent and useful information. However, information extracted from text is not always credible or reliable; often buried in sentences are lexical and grammatical structures that indicate the uncertainty of the proposition. Such clues include hedges such as modal adverbs and adjectives, as well as hearsay markers, indicators of inference or belief (”mindsay”), and verb forms identifying future actions which may not take place. In this thesis, we demonstrate how analysis of these lexical and grammatical forms of uncertainty can be automatically analyzed to provide a method of determining an evidential weight to the proposition, which can be used to assess the credibility of the information extracted from English text. | |
