Multilingual Summarisation and Sentiment Analysis
Summarisation and sentiment analysis are the key NLP technologies which allow monitoring evolving content and opinions in huge amounts of textual data available on the web. Summarisa-tion can address the problem of information overload by extracting and presenting the main con-tent and sentiment analysis can identify opinions expressed towards entities or events. Because there can be found so many opinions, it is needed to aggregate them and present to a user only the most important ones. And this is the case in which summarisation and sentiment analysis have to work together. Studying the problems in multiple languages, besides providing multilin-gual information access, opens new possibilities, like analysing disagreements in reporting across languages or producing more coherent summaries in the case of weakly covered languages. My research focussed mainly on news data, however, the attention is now shifting towards rising social media. This thesis describes the crossing paths of my research of summarisation and sen-timent analysis in multilingual environment.
