Querying Relations Layer Annotations (for Rhetoric Text Structure Analysis)

[Yanir Marmor]

Hello,

I'm embarking on a project focused on tagging relationships between entities to annotate the structure of rhetorical texts. The goal is to identify and analyze structures such as claims, rhetorical questions, facts, opinions, declines of hypothetical claims, regard for other speakers, and more. While I believe I have a schema that suits my needs, I have a few queries regarding the post-annotation phase:

1. Querying the Tagged Dataset: How can I query the tagged dataset once the annotation is complete? Are there built-in tools within INCEpTION, or would I need to export the data and use external tools to analyze the annotations?

2. Examples: Are there any exemplary projects or datasets that demonstrate the usability of relationship annotations, especially in the context of rhetorical text structures? Any references would be greatly appreciated.

3. Analysis of Structures and Sequences: I'm interested in analyzing the frequency of certain structures and sequences in the annotated data. Is there a recommended approach for this within INCEpTION, or should I consider external tools or scripts?

4. Effort Estimation: Given my objective to identify specific rhetorical patterns based on the annotations, how much effort would be required to query and analyze the data? Does INCEpTION have any built-in features to assist in this, or should I be prepared to implement a custom querying system?

Any guidance or insights would be invaluable. Thank you for your time and expertise.

Best regards,

Yanir
