Monitoring Reputation in the Wild Online West
Julio Gonzalo UNED Madrid, Spain
Abstract
Monitoring Online Reputation has already be- come a key part of Public Relations for orga- nizations and individuals; and current search technologies do not suffice to help reputation experts to cope with the vast stream of on- line content flooding reputation management experts.
In the talk we will summarize some of the main challenges that Information Access Technologies must face to assist online reputa- tion monitoring tasks, and present some of the results obtained by the UNED research group in the areas of entity name disambiguation, topic tracking for reputation analysis, iden- tification of opinion makers, and reputation- oriented summarization. We will make a spe- cial emphasis on the Replab test collections for Online Reputation Monitoring, which provide over half a million manual annotations pro- vided by reputation experts on Twitter data.
