This was in addition to a poster and demo session, to exhibit practical application in the eld, and foster further discussion about the ways in which data extracted from Microposts is being reused. The accepted submissions cover an array of topics, including a variety of approaches to concept extraction again reinforcing its importance with respect to research on Microposts, among these, rule-based, machine learning and hybrid methods. Other topics covered range from research from a social science perspective, on the use of Microposts to publicise and discuss trending events and topics, and the extraction of intent, meaning and sentiment. Submissions came from 9 countries, with 29% of all authors from institutions in Brazil. Thanks to our local chair, Bernardo Pereira

We consider the question as the TE hypothesis (H) and the supporting text as TE text (T). Our proposed TE system compares the UNL relations in both T and H in order to identify the entailment relation as either validated or rejected. For training and evaluation, we used the AVE 2008 development set. We obtained 58% precision and 22% F-score for the decision "validated."

The proposed TE system compares the UNL relations in both the text and the hypothesis to arrive at the two-way entailment decision. The system has been separately trained on each development corpus released as part of the Recognizing Textual Entailment (RTE) competitions RTE-1, RTE-2, RTE-3 and RTE-5 and tested on the respective RTE test sets.
