Litmus是一项实时在线和公开访问的服务,从社交媒体收集关于山体滑坡事件的高质量信息。这项服务使用与灾害相关的关键字,如“山体滑坡”和“泥石流”,来分析英语用户发布的消息。然而,全面的灾害报道必须包括多语言支持,因为有些事件是用英语以外的语言报道的。我们使用“原生的”和“翻译的”方法讨论和评估这种支持的可能实现。“原生”方法涉及用另一种语言完全重新实现现有的基础设施,而在“翻译的”方法中,现有的基础设施无需修改即可使用。作为说明,我们提供了一个演示,它对Litmus进行了扩展,以实现用于多语言报告滑坡事件的“原生”方法。
LITMUS is a real-time online and openly accessible service that collects high quality information on landslide events from social media. This service uses disaster related keywords, such as "landslide" and "mudslide", to analyze messages posted by English speaking users. However, comprehensive coverage of disasters must include multilingual support as there are events that are reported in languages other than English. We discuss and evaluate possible implementations of such support using "native" and "translated" approaches. "Native" approach involves a complete reimplementation of the existing infrastructure in another language whereas in the "translated" approach the existing infrastructure can be used without modification. As an illustration, we present a demo that extends LITMUS to implement a "native" approach for multilingual reporting of landslide events.
