Based on this analysis, we provide a set of requirements that an\nimage description system should have in order to generate negation sentences.\nAs a pilot experiment, we used our categorization to manually annotate\nsentences containing negations in the Flickr30K corpus, with an agreement score\nof K=0.67. With this paper, we hope to open up a broader discussion of\nsubjective language in image descriptions.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1606.06164v2","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1606.06164v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"pragmatic-factors-in-image-description-the","repo_url":"https://github.com/evanmiltenburg/annotating-negations","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":null,"task_name":"Image Description"},{"task_slug":"negation","task_name":"Negation"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=1606.06164","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
