MUD – Multiple Uncertainty Detection

MUD allows to detect uncertainty in natural language. It relies on a new supervised and generic approach based on the statistical analysis of multiple lexical and syntactic features used to characterize sentences through vector-based representations that can be analyzed by proven classification methods (like SVM).
