This container adds argument mining to the ADD-up framwork. In detail: We integrate the backend as provided by Chernodub et al. (2019): TARGER: Neural Argument Mining at Your Fingertips. The backend provides an API to detect arguments. Arguments are printed in semantic role labeling BIO notation, for an example see e.g. Habernal/Gurevych 2017: Argument Mining in User-Generated Web Discourse.
B marks the being of a span
I marks tokens inside a span
O marks tokens outside of a span
MC marks major claims
C marks claims
P marks premises
B marks backing

There is also an online demo available: http://ltdemos.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/targer/
API reference: http://ltdemos.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/arg-api#/
The model(s) must be downloaded separately, the container does not include the models. You can download the models at http://ltdata1.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/targer/. Please put the models in the directory 00_custom/targer_models.
Run (regular) docker-compose up command (takes a while to compile)
Access API via curl: curl -X POST “http://localhost:8001/classifyCombo” -H “accept: application/json” -H “Content-Type: text/plain” -d “Quebecan independence is justified. In the special episode in Japan, his system is restored by a doctor who wishes to use his independence for her selfish reasons.”
To use Targer argument mining, please set the environment variable RUN_TARGER to 1. Please also define the model to use, e.g. TARGER_MODEL=Combo.h5
