Checkworthiness, Subjectivity, Persuasion, Roles, Authorities and Adversarial Robustness
Lab programme
The poster session will occur between CheckThat’s oral sessions 2 and 3 (that is CLEF’s Poster session 3). All papers that have not been selected for a talk are entitled to get presented in poster format. In the programme we include those confirmed by the participants so far (as of Sept. 3rd).
