Abstract

In social media discourse, the framing of a topic dictates the way opinions are formed. This paper presents two multi-agent frameworks: one for discovering what issues are framed in a topic, and another articulating interpretations of these issues. This enables an analysis of a topic’s discourse that reveals what frame issues are dominant while also providing insights about which issues have more possible interpretations. Experiments across four different topics show promising results for discovering and analyzing framings, allowing new comprehension of controversial topics.
