Abstract in another language
Extracting meaningful social networks from a large corpus of news articles is challenging. This paper presents a network embedding technique which uses the content of texts as context information for relationships among persons referenced in texts. The goal of our approach is to automatically extract social networks from news articles and to identify structures in these networks. ContextWalk is an algorithmic approach extending random walk-based techniques by adapting a context-aware path sampling. We demonstrate the functionality and performance of the algorithm on an 8,000 nodes network extracted from a large German news dataset. Comparison with state-of-the-art algorithms shows that using the context to identify similar types of relationships significantly improves the algorithm's ability to detect fine-grained semantic groups.
