Our lab proudly announces the publication of “PopAut: An Annotated Corpus for Populism Detection in Austrian News User Comments.” Authored by Ahmadou Wagne, with support from Julia Neidhardt and Thomas Kolb, this work provides the first German-language corpus annotated for populist motives.
The research, presented as a poster at the joint LREC-COLING conference in Torino, Italy, sparked engaging discussions and received positive feedback. The paper is available in the ACL Anthology here. Furthermore, the data is available on the research data platform of TU Wien.
