Abstract

In this paper we present an implemented method for analysing arguments from drug reviews given by patients in medical forums on the web. For this we provide a number of classification rules which allow for the extraction of specific arguments from the drug reviews. For each review we use the extracted arguments to instantiate a Dung argument graph. We undertake an evaluation of the resulting argument graphs by applying Dung’s grounded semantics. We demonstrate a correlation between the arguments in the grounded extension of the graph and the rating provided by the user for that particular drug.
