Paper Abstract:
|
There are many expressions in bills included in the minutes of local assembly meetings that represent not only stances but
also suggestions. These expressions are different for each party and member of the assembly to express their opinions. In
this paper, we analyse the statements made by each party in the minutes of several local assemblies such as Tokyo,
Osaka, and Ibaraki. Moreover, we analyse whether differences in the expression of opinion exist across areas using word
frequency and sentence embeddings from BERT model on the minutes of several assemblies. The results of the
experiments indicate that some specific opinion expressions tend to represent similar content. Moreover, we show that
there are differences in the use of wording to express opposite stances between urban and local assemblies. |
