FRaN-X: FRaming and Narratives-eXplorer
We present FRaN-X, a Framing and Narratives Explorer that automatically detects entity mentions and classifies their narrative roles directly from raw text. FRaN-X comprises a two-stage system that combines sequence labeling with fine-grained role classification to reveal how entities are portrayed as protagonists, antagonists, or innocents, using a unique taxonomy of 22 fine-grained roles nested under these three main categories. The system supports five languages (Bulgarian, English, Hindi, R…

Framing social issues as 'civil rights' can sometimes backfire
Framing is a powerful tool in communications: It can help people grasp complex ideas, but it can also distort or mislead. A recent sociological study suggests that framing social issues as "civil rights" can sometimes have surprising and even negative consequences.

Robust Noise Attenuation via Adaptive Pooling of Transformer Outputs
We investigate the design of pooling methods used to summarize the outputs of transformer embedding models, primarily motivated by reinforcement learning and vision applications. This work considers problems where a subset of the input vectors contains requisite information for a downstream task (signal) while the rest are distractors (noise). By framing pooling as vector quantization with the goal of minimizing signal loss, we demonstrate that the standard methods used to aggregate transformer…

Paired Completion: Flexible Quantification of Issue-framing at Scale with LLMs

@… just saw your story seeds site which is very cool. One gentle nudge: the "humanity learns how to sustainably live on Earth," framing erases all the groups of humans who do already know how to live sustainably, and have been doing do for tens of thousands of years. It's not "humans" who have "learning" to do, but specific groups of humans who have decisions to make.
Admittedly there's some learning to do about sustainably at scale, and about integrating good modern inventions with sustainable traditions, but I think that framing the problem as "we need to deploy existing rich knowledges of how to live sustainably" helps newcomers catch on to the decolonial thread of solarpunk more easily.

Retain or Reframe? A Computational Framework for the Analysis of Framing in News Articles and Reader Comments
When a news article describes immigration as an "economic burden" or a "humanitarian crisis," it selectively emphasizes certain aspects of the issue. Although \textit{framing} shapes how the public interprets such issues, audiences do not absorb frames passively but actively reorganize the presented information. While this relationship between source content and audience response is well-documented in the social sciences, NLP approaches often ignore it, detecting frames in articles and response…

Homotopy of blow ups after looping
The homotopy theory of the blow up construction in algebraic and symplectic geometry is investigated via two approaches. The first approach introduces and develops fibrewise surgery theory, for which the fibrewise framing is characterized by the homotopy groups of a certain gauge group. This is used to obtain a homotopy decomposition of the based loop space on a blow up that holds $p$-locally for all but finitely many primes $p$ and holds rationally. The second approach is purely homotopy theor…

Shifting Narratives: A Longitudinal Analysis of Media Trends and Public Attitudes on Homelessness
Within the field of media framing, homelessness has been a historically under-researched topic. Framing theory states that the media's method of presenting information plays a pivotal role in controlling public sentiment toward a topic. The sentiment held towards homeless individuals influences their ability to access jobs, housing, and resources as a result of discrimination. This study analyzes the topic and sentiment trends in related media articles to validate framing theory within the scop…

Framing Triangulations and Framing Posets of Planar DAGs with Nontrivial Netflow Vectors
The space of unit flows on a directed acyclic graph (DAG) with one source and one sink is known to admit regular unimodular triangulations induced by framings of the DAG. The dual graph of any of these triangulations may be given the structure of the Hasse diagram of a lattice, generalizing many variations of the Tamari lattice and the weak order. We extend this theory to flow polytopes of DAGs which may have multiple sources, multiple sinks, and nontrivial netflow vectors under certain planari…

Efficient Neural Clause-Selection Reinforcement
Clause selection is arguably the most important choice point in saturation-based theorem proving. Framing it as a reinforcement learning (RL) task is a way to challenge the human-designed heuristics of state-of-the-art provers and to instead automatically evolve -- just from prover experiences -- their potentially optimal replacement. In this work, we present a neural network architecture for scoring clauses for clause selection that is powerful yet efficient to evaluate. Following RL principle…

From Pixels to Damage Severity: Estimating Earthquake Impacts Using Semantic Segmentation of Social Media Images
In the aftermath of earthquakes, social media images have become a crucial resource for disaster reconnaissance, providing immediate insights into the extent of damage. Traditional approaches to damage severity assessment in post-earthquake social media images often rely on classification methods, which are inherently subjective and incapable of accounting for the varying extents of damage within an image. Addressing these limitations, this study proposes a novel approach by framing damage seve…

Through agent-based simulations, we demonstrate that while a naive model leads to a "trust death spiral," a refined…

Parity solves the Strong CP problem
A recent paper "What can solve the strong CP problem?" goes counter to conventional wisdom by arguing that the universe was in an initial state that combines different eigenstates of $θ$ (of the theta vacuum of QCD), and asserts that for such an initial state, axionless solutions to the Strong CP Problem based on P and CP symmetries will not work. We discuss the nature of the theta vacuum in light of this work, and find that the conventional framing and solutions based on P and CP symmetries a…

We find that the field (i) still has a strong focus on a technological fix of algorithmic discriminati…

Finished "Far from the Tree" by Robin Benway last night. For me, it was a gripping and absolutely delightful read. I can recognize that I'm absolutely unequipped to judge whether it authentically reflects the experiences of many or few of the people whose situations are similar to the protagonists', but I find myself fervently hopeful for the former, even as I recognize such hopes in the part of people like me can be part of ultimately harmful publishing selection feedback loops. (If anyone reading this happens to have read the book and found it distasteful, I'd love to hear that.) Notwithstanding my probably overcautious uncertainty, I'll definitely be seeking out more books by Benway. At the very least, I really enjoyed her little joining and framing metaphors, and the pacing and plot construction were good, with lots of nicely interwoven implications arising through the buildup, and an ending that left me satisfied (albeit, I'm an inveterate optimist, YMMV).

Our findings reveal that these models often produce coherent narratives, show susceptibility to positive framing, exhibit moral judgments aligned wi…
