Our second source of information consists of character and movie metadata drawn from the November 4, 2012 dump of Freebase.
they each use different evidence: since our data includes not only textual features (in the form of actions and attributes of the characters) but also non-textual information (such as movie genre, age and gender), we design a model that exploits this additional source of information in discriminating between character types; since this extralinguistic information may not always be available, we also design a model that learns only from the text itself.
