Harmonization Sometimes Harms


Klenner, Manfred; Göhring, Anne; Amsler, Michael (2020). Harmonization Sometimes Harms. In: Proceedings of the 5th Swiss Text Analytics Conference (SwissText) & 16th Conference on Natural Language Processing (KONVENS), Winterthur, 23 June 2020 - 25 June 2020, swisstext-and-konvens-2020.

Abstract

In this paper we argue that harmonization is not the preferred way to produce a gold standard in all cases. Neither does a majority vote based harmonization produce an appropriate gold standard centroid, nor would a mere centroid be a good basis for training a system that reproduces prototypical user reactions given some understanding task. We discuss these claims in the context of sentiment inference.
