Argument mining and reasoning add-on on Orange3 platform.

Orange3 Argument Mining Add-on

This work is an open-source Python package that implements a pipeline of processing, analyzing, and visualizing an argument corpus and the attacking relationship inside the corpus. It also implements the corresponding GUIs on a scientific workflow platform named Orange3, so that users with little knowledge of Python programming can also benefit from it.

Why

This package is designed with a clear mission: to empower researchers in building their own argument mining workflows effortlessly. Leveraging the capabilities of state-of-the-art, pre-trained language models for natural language processing, this tool facilitates the process of understanding arguments from text data. At its core, this work is committed to transparency and interpretability throughout the analysis process. We believe that clarity and comprehensibility are paramount when working with complex language data. As such, the tool not only automates the task but also ensures that the results are easily interpretable, allowing researchers to gain valuable insights from their data.

Please cite this work if you use it for scientific or commercial purpose.

Installation

This package requires Python version >= 3.8. We recommand installing this package in a new virtual environment to avoid dependency conflicts. The package can be installed from PyPI via pip:

pip install orangearg

Executing the above command will install both the necessary dependencies and the graphical user interface (GUI) components of Orange3.

Further details can be found in the installation guide.

Getting Started

If you would like to learn how to use this package for scripting, take a look at our example notebook.

To build and run workflows on Orange3, run the following command in your terminal to launch the Orange3 GUI, known as the 'canvas'.

python -m Orange.canvas

A sample workflow and dataset have been provided to illustrate the effective utilization of this package within Orange3.

For additional information, please refer to the guidance on using this package through widgets in Orange3.
