Before revision:  We evaluate our approach using SemEval datasets as well as three other datasets and human evaluations, demonstrating that FrameAxis can reliably characterize documents with relevant microframes .
After revision:  We demonstrate how FrameAxis successfully captures framing bias and intensity in a variety of text data from restaurant reviews to news media. The existing domain knowledge can be directly incorporated into FrameAxis by guiding candidate microframes to test and fine-tune automatically discovered microframes. We propose methods for explaining the results of FrameAxis at the level of individual words and documents.
