摘要:

理解文本文档中描述的运动非常重要,因为运动的文本描述包含有关人员、野生动物、货物等运动的丰富地理和上下文信息。我们的研究作出了一些贡献,以提高我们的理解文本中的运动描述。首先,我们展示了如何解释文本中描述的地理运动是具有挑战性的,因为一般的空间术语,语言结构,使事情(S)移动不清楚,以及许多类型的时间参考和分组,等等。接下来,作为克服这些挑战的一个步骤,我们报告了一项针对人类受试者的实验,通过该实验,我们确定了人类用来区分一个运动描述与另一个运动描述的运动描述(在文本中发现)的多个重要特征。基于我们的实证结果,我们提供了建议,计算分析使用文本文档中描述的运动。我们的研究结果有助于更好地理解未充分利用的信息的重要特征,以文字描述的形式的地理运动。

英文摘要:

Understanding movement described in text documents is important since text descriptions of movement contain a wealth of geographic and contextual information about the movement of people, wildlife, goods, and much more. Our research makes several contributions to improve our understanding of movement descriptions in text. First, we show how interpreting geographic movement described in text is challenging because of general spatial terms, linguistic constructions that make the thing(s) moving unclear, and many types of temporal references and groupings, among others. Next, as a step to overcome these challenges, we report on an experiment with human subjects through which we identify multiple important characteristics of movement descriptions (found in text) that humans use to differentiate one movement description from another. Based on our empirical results, we provide recommendations for computational analysis using movement described in text documents. Our findings contribute towards an improved understanding of the important characteristics of the underused information about geographic movement that is in the form of text descriptions.
