COMPUTATIONAL MODELING OF NARRATIVE REPRESENTATION, SHAPING, AND INFLUENCE

Abstract

Media narratives play a critical role in echoing, influencing, and reinforcing public opinion. Yet, it is challenging to represent narratives structurally to empower efficient extraction, let alone to understand their dissemination and influence. This project’s objectives are- (1) designing a computational framework with a unified narrative representation, grounded in social psychological theories, (2) gaining deeper insights into how narratives emerge and spread through the lens of argumentation, and (3) providing practical quantitative measures of narrative influence.
