Abstract

Understanding societal debates on the Web and how they are impacted by the spread of biased narratives and falsehoods are becoming increasingly important issues. The notion of a claim is central in a number of related studies into fake-news propagation or computational fact-checking. While the understanding of this notion varies from one field to another, there are few studies that have focused on the conceptual modeling of claims and their context. We attempt to contribute to this area by proposing a novel conceptual model for claims and related notions, such as attitudes, reviews and annotations, that aims to take into consideration the claims inherent complexity, distinguishing between their meaning, linguistic representation and context. We provide an example of an implementation of this model by using established vocabularies, such as schema.org, Open Annotation and PROV-O, and discuss the challenges related to this work.1
