6. Extracting Events from Text and Grad School Memories with Brendan O'Connor and Brandon Stewart
Manage episode 313667712 series 3280396
Our guests in this episode are Brendan O'Connor, Associate Professor of Computer Science at UMass Amherst, and Brandon Stewart, Assistant Professor of Sociology at Princeton University. We talk with them about their 2013 ACL paper (with co-author Noah Smith) “Learning to Extract International Relations from Political Context” which presents a probabilistic model for extracting events between countries and international organizations from news articles.
Brendan and Brandon also discuss how their collaboration grew from "saying nice things" about each other's work to 30-page written research memos sent back and forth. We also discuss the "ballooning and focusing" scope of research, clunky computer labs in the early 2000s, challenges in incentive structures for interdisciplinary collaborations, and data replicability standards.
