Feedback on Linking Sentences in Asynchronous Conversations

Feedback on Linking Sentences in Asynchronous Conversations

Hi Jordon, An informative page with enough information. The writing in my opinion was concise and to the point. I believe the following points would be helpful for you to build the page.

  • The language in some places [e.g. Abstract and hypothesis] are written in complex sentences and a bit convoluted to understand. Breaking down into smaller chunks would be helpful in my opinion
  • I am curious to know your feedback on a matter you mentioned in the discussion section regarding how various random sentences can be linked. Is there anyway how random sentences in disjoint asynchronous conversations can be used. This might be beyond you page but some insight regarding that would be appreciated

I applaud your hardwork and contribution to the development of the WIKI

Hi Abed, thank you for the feedback!

I agree that I try to cram too much into individual sentences at times; I'll take a quick pass over the areas you mentioned and see what I can do.

Regarding your other point, I'm not quite sure if I understand your meaning, but my reasoning went like this:

  • Given an asynchronous conversation, let's call the set of all its sentences S, and the set of all its linked pairs of sentences L. If I randomly choose pairs of sentences from S, it is possible for some of the pairs to be in L.

If you're asking if there would be some use in looking at sentence pairs where each sentence is from a different conversation, I'm not sure that there would be too much use there. The end goal is to determine which pairs of sentences in an asynchronous conversation are linked, which means figuring out how to distinguish between linked sentence pairs and not-linked sentence pairs in the same conversation. If I had had a single dataset with annotations for linked sentences, not-linked sentences, and topic information, that would have been ideal.
