Stance detection on social media: State of the art and trends

作者:

Highlights:

• We map out the current research terrain on stance detection and synthesize its relation to the existing theoretical orientations.

• We provide a broader overview of stance detection methods, covering work that has been published in multiple research domains, including NLP, Computational Social Science,and Web science.

• We survey the recent advances in stance detection methodologies and potential benchmarks by categorizing and summarizing the current methods.

• We show the different applications of stance detection on social media and identify open key trends and challenges in the domain.
