Combining Lexico-semantic Features for Emotion Classification in Suicide Notes
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a system for automatic emotion classification, developed for the 2011 i2b2 Natural Language Processing Challenge, Track 2. The objective of the shared task was to label suicide notes with 15 relevant emotions on the sentence level. Our system uses 15 SVM models (one for each emotion) using the combination of features that was found to perform best on a given emotion. Features included lemmas and trigram bag of words, and information from semantic resources such as WordNet, SentiWordNet and subjectivity clues. The best-performing system labeled 7 of the 15 emotions and achieved an F-score of 53.31% on the test data.

A Naïve Bayes Approach to Classifying Topics in Suicide Notes
The authors present a system developed for the 2011 i2b2 Challenge on Sentiment Classification, whose aim was to automatically classify sentences in suicide notes using a scheme of 15 topics, mostly emotions. The system combines machine learning with a rule-based methodology. The features used to represent a problem were based on lexico-semantic properties of individual words in addition to reg...
متن کاملTopic Categorisation of Statements in Suicide Notes with Integrated Rules and Machine Learning
We describe and evaluate an automated approach used as part of the i2b2 2011 challenge to identify and categorise statements in suicide notes into one of 15 topics, including Love, Guilt, Thankfulness, Hopelessness and Instructions. The approach combines a set of lexico-syntactic rules with a set of models derived by machine learning from a training dataset. The machine learning models rely on ...

Despite machine translation (MT) wide suc-cess over last years, this technology is still not able to exactly translate text so that except for some language pairs in certain domains, post editing its output may take longer time than human translation. Nevertheless by having an estimation of the output quality, users can manage imperfection of this tech-nology. It means we need to estimate the c...
متن کاملStatistical and Similarity Methods for Classifying Emotion in Suicide Notes
In this paper we report on the approaches that we developed for the 2011 i2b2 Shared Task on Sentiment Analysis of Suicide Notes. We have cast the problem of detecting emotions in suicide notes as a supervised multi-label classification problem. Our classifiers use a variety of features based on (a) lexical indicators, (b) topic scores, and (c) similarity measures. Our best submission has a pre...
متن کاملEmotion Detection in Suicide Notes using Maximum Entropy Classification
An ensemble of supervised maximum entropy classifiers can accurately detect and identify sentiments expressed in suicide notes. Using lexical and syntactic features extracted from a training set of externally annotated suicide notes, we trained separate classifiers for each of fifteen pre-specified emotions. This formed part of the 2011 i2b2 NLP Shared Task, Track 2. The precision and recall of...
