This paper reports on the submissions of Webis to the two subtasks of ImageArg 2023. For the subtask of argumentative stance classification, we reached an F1 score of 0.84 using a BERT model for sequence classification. For the subtask of image persuasiveness classification, we reached an F1 score of 0.56 using CLIP embeddings and a neural network model, achieving the best performance for this subtask in the competition. Our analysis reveals that seemingly clear sentences (e.g., “I support gun control”) are still problematic for our otherwise competitive stance classifier and that ignoring the tweet text for image persuasiveness prediction leads to a model that is similarly effective to our top-performing model.
