• Tweet Acts: A Speech Act Classifier for Twitter, Soroush Vosoughi, Deb Ro https://arxiv.org/abs/1605.05156
• "However, there has been very little work done on classifying the pragmatics of tweets"
• how context and intention contribute to meaning
• a set of communicative acts, more commonly known as speech acts.
• noisy and unconventional nature of the language used on the platform
• In this work, we created a supervised speech act classifier for Twitter, using a manually annotated dataset of a few thousand tweets, in order to be better understand the meaning and intention behind tweets and uncover the rich interactions between the users of Twitter.
• Using Searle’s speech act taxonomy (Searle 1976), we established a list of six speech act categories that are commonly seen on Twitter: 
• A Assertion (Påstand)
• R Recommendation (Anbefaling)
• E Expression (Uttrykk) 
• Q Question (Spørsmål) 
• R Request (be om) 
• M Miscellaneous (diverse).
•  We used Zhao et al.’s (Zhao and Jiang 2011) definitions for topic and type
• A topic is a subject discussed in one or more tweets (e.g., Boston Marathon bombings, Red Sox, etc). The type characterizes the nature of the topic, these are: 
1. Entity-oriented - Bibliotekets samlinger
2. Event-oriented topics - Arrangementer, Tekniske oppdateringer, Undersøkelser, Q & A, (Utstillinger, Åpningstider) 
3. Long-standing topics -  (IK, Open Access) Community, Ansatte, Club.
