Argument mining from Tweets related to COVID-19.

This repository contains a dataset for SMM4H'22 Task 2: Classification of stance and premise in tweets about health mandates (COVID-19).

Data includes:

• Train and test data for SMM4H 2022 Task 2: tweets annotated for stance and premise prediction on three claims about COVID-19 mandates such as stay-at-home-orders, school closures, and face masks
• 2070 annotated tweets about vaccine mandates, that were not used in the official SMM4H competition
• 600 annotated tweets about vaccine mandates with low inter-annotators agreement.

This competition was held within the framework of the SMM4H 2022 shared tasks. During the competition, the participants were offered two subtasks: stance detection and premise classification. We present a manually annotated corpus containing 6,156 short posts from Twitter on three topics related to the COVID-19 pandemic: school closures, stay-at-home orders, and wearing masks. We hope the prepared dataset will support further research on argument mining in the health field.",
