Reposted by Boulder NLPAdvait@COLM @advaitdeshmukh.com · 10/09/20261/7 In 1941, Borges imagined an impossible novel that follows all narrative branches at once. Today, we can observe chatbot users exploring narrative possibilities as they repeatedly edit story prompts. In our COLM 2026 paper, we studied this branching exploration via the WildChat dataset. 🧵 24212

Reposted by Boulder NLPRohan @rohandas.net · 11/05/2026Computational approaches to media narrative analysis either miss nuanced storytelling patterns through coarse-grained analysis, or require domain-specific taxonomies that limit scalability. We show joint event and character modeling can address this gap. Details in our #ACL2026 (Main) paper. 🧵1/10 12411
Reposted by Boulder NLPRohan @rohandas.net · 10/05/2026What’s the best way to analyze online discourse on any given topic? Is there a right way to use NLP tools to sift through massive datasets?
