Social media user stance detection without stance text
Anais do XXI Simpósio Brasileiro de Sistemas de Informação (SBSI 2025)Context: User stance detection systems are intended to determine whether an individual holds a stance for or against a given target topic. For instance, ‘Vaccines save lives’ is a stance in favour of vaccination. Problem: Most existing approaches to stance detection take as an input a piece of text assumed to convey a stance towards the intended target,
