It addresses the challenge of collecting event information across technical and social science fields, but is incremental as it reports on a workshop and shared task.
The paper summarizes the fifth edition of the CASE 2022 workshop, which focused on automated extraction of socio-political events from text, highlighting progress in depth and the inclusion of multimodal approaches.
We provide a summary of the fifth edition of the CASE workshop that is held in the scope of EMNLP 2022. The workshop consists of regular papers, two keynotes, working papers of shared task participants, and task overview papers. This workshop has been bringing together all aspects of event information collection across technical and social science fields. In addition to the progress in depth, the submission and acceptance of multimodal approaches show the widening of this interdisciplinary research topic.
