PRISM可生成可解释的政治偏见嵌入,精准识别新闻中的意识形态倾向。

PRISM: A Framework for Producing Interpretable Political Bias Embeddings with Political-Aware Cross-Encoder

  • 基于弱标签新闻数据挖掘细粒度政治话题与偏见指标
  • 通过交叉编码器为文章分配结构化偏见分数,提升分类准确率
  • 适合研究政治传播、内容审核与意识形态分析的学者和工程师

语义文本嵌入是将文本内容编码为向量表示的基础自然语言处理任务,其中嵌入空间中的距离反映语义相似性。现有嵌入模型虽能捕捉一般语义,却常忽略意识形态细微差别,限制其在需理解政治偏见任务中的表现。为此,我们提出PRISM——首个用于生成可解释政治偏见嵌入的框架。PRISM包含两个关键阶段:(1) 争议话题偏见指标挖掘,从弱标签新闻数据中系统提取细粒度政治话题及其对应偏见指标;(2) 交叉编码器政治偏见嵌入,根据文章与这些指标的匹配度分配结构化偏见分数。该方法使嵌入明确关联偏见揭示维度,显著提升可解释性与预测能力。在两个大规模数据集上的大量实验表明,PRISM在政治偏见分类任务中优于当前最先进文本嵌入模型,同时提供高度可解释的表示,支持多样化检索与意识形态分析。源代码已公开于 https://github.com/dukesun99/ACL-PRISM。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Semantic Text Embedding is a fundamental NLP task that encodes textual content into vector representations, where proximity in the embedding space reflects semantic similarity. While existing embedding models excel at capturing general meaning, they often overlook ideological nuances, limiting their effectiveness in tasks that require an understanding of political bias. To address this gap, we introduce PRISM, the first framework designed to Produce inteRpretable polItical biaS eMbeddings. PRISM operates in two key stages: (1) Controversial Topic Bias Indicator Mining, which systematically extracts fine-grained political topics and their corresponding bias indicators from weakly labeled news data, and (2) Cross-Encoder Political Bias Embedding, which assigns structured bias scores to news articles based on their alignment with these indicators. This approach ensures that embeddings are explicitly tied to bias-revealing dimensions, enhancing both interpretability and predictive power. Through extensive experiments on two large-scale datasets, we demonstrate that PRISM outperforms state-of-the-art text embedding models in political bias classification while offering highly interpretable representations that facilitate diversified retrieval and ideological analysis.
