DESCRIPTION;CHARSET=UTF-8:Natural Language Processing\, Digital Media Analy
 tics &amp\; Conversational \nHumans use natural languages to communicate w
 ith each other and to encode their knowledge in written form. The process 
 to analyze such text and make them suitable for machines is referred to as
  natural language processing. In this installment of the workshop series\,
  we present the current state in the fascinating quest to make use of writ
 ten text in applications that are designed to at least appear intelligent.

 tract:\nHumans use natural languages to communicate with each other and to
  encode their knowledge in written form. The process to analyze such text 
 and make them suitable for machines is referred to as natural language pro
 cessing. In this installment of the workshop series\, we present the curre
 nt state in the fascinating quest to make use of written text in applicati
 ons that are designed to at least appear intelligent.\nThe focus in terms 
 of its application will be the domain of digital media analytics\, with ex
 amples being presented from running projects and success stories. To this 
 end\, we will present our work on the use of NLP for improving Recommender
  Systems\, detecting biases and polarization in online discussions\, autom
 atic credibility and content quality assessment\, and finally\, for suppor
 ting reflective thinking in online video-sharing platforms using credibili
 ty markers.\nAs another important application of NLP techniques\, we will 
 discuss the hot topic of conversational agents\, typically known to users 
 as chatbots.\nAfter the event you will know:\n\n\n\nCurrent state-of-the-a
 rt of NLP (in research) for selected tasks\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy is NLP such an
  interesting problem?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nApplication of NLP techniques in recomm
 ender systems and digital media analytics\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAutomatic credibili
