    Paper presented at EMMSAD’2019 

    At EMMSAD 2019, co-located with CAiSE’19 in Rome, Andreas L Opdahl presented the paper Towards ontological support for journalistic angles, written jointly with Bjørnar Tessem.

    Abstract: Journalism relies more and more on information and communication technology (ICT). New journalistic ICT platforms continuously harvest potentially news-related information from the internet and try to make it useful for journalists. Because the information sources and formats vary widely, knowledge graphs are emerging as a preferred technology for integrating, enriching, and preparing journalistic information. The paper explores how journalistic knowledge graphs can be augmented with support for news angles, in order to help journalists detect newsworthy events and present them in ways that will interest the intended audience. We argue that finding newsworthy angles on news-related information is important as an example of a more general problem in information science: that of finding the most interesting events and situations in big data sets and presenting those events and situations in the most interesting ways.

    Paper presented at IEEE RCIS 2019 

    At the 13th International Conference on Research Challenges in Information Science (IEEE RCIS 2019), May 29-31, 2019, Brussels, Belgium, Bjørnar Tessem presented the paper: Supporting journalistic news angles with models and analogies.

    Abstract: News angles are approaches to content presentation in journalism, where the journalist chooses which facts of an event to present. The News Angler project investigates how to computationally support the creation and selection of original news angles for a news event based on information from big data sources. At least two creative approaches are possible. One is to maintain a library of well-known news angles represented in a suitable modeling language, matching published reports on a current event to news angles in order to identify possible angles that have not yet been used. A second approach is not to represent news angles explicitly, instead matching the current event with previous events, and transferring angles from past to present reports by similarity and analogy. Both approaches are described and technologies needed to proceed in either direction are discussed.

    The News Angler group attends the Norwegian Big Data Symposium 

    In the late autumn of 2018, the project group attended the 4th Norwegian Big Data Symposium (NOBIDS 2018) in Trondheim to present our joint paper on our big data platform for news angles. Before the workshop, we had an internal 1-day seminar and, the day after, Opdahl attended the NxtMedia Conference also in Trondheim.

    Abstract: Finding good angles on news events is a central journalistic and editorial skill. As news work becomes increasingly computer-assisted and big-data based, journalistic tools therefore need to become better able to support news angles too. This paper outlines a big-data platform that is able to suggest appropriate angles on news events to journalists. We first clarify and discuss the central characteristics of news angles. We then proceed to outline a big-data architecture that can propose news angles. Important areas for further work include: representing news angles formally; identifying interesting and unexpected angles on unfolding events; and designing a big-data architecture that works on a global scale.
