Fourth International Workshop on Narrative Extraction from Texts
held in conjunction with the 43rd European Conference on Information Retrieval
Although the understanding of natural language has improved over the last couple of years - with research works emerging on the grounds of information extraction and text mining - the problem of constructing consistent narrative structures is yet to be solved. In the fourth edition of the Text2Story workshop, we aim to foster the discussion of recent advances in the link between Information Retrieval (IR) and formal narrative representations from texts. Specifically, we aim to provide a common forum to consolidate the multi-disciplinary efforts and foster discussions to identify the wide-ranging issues related to the narrative extraction task. To this regard, we encourage the submission of high-quality and original submissions covering the following topics:
We invite two kinds of submissions:
All papers must be formatted according to the LNCS format style. Papers must be submitted electronically in PDF format through our Easy Chair link.
Due to concerns about COVID-19, ECIR 2021 and Text2Story 2021 will be held entirely online.
