Construction of Emotional Lexicon Using Potts Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
Emotion is an instinctive state of mind aroused by some specific objects or situation. Exchange of textual information is an important medium for communication and contains a rich set of emotional expressions. The computational approaches to emotion analysis in textual data require annotated lexicons with polarity tags. In this paper we propose a novel method for constructing emotion lexicon annotated with Ekman‟s six basic emotion classes (anger, disgust, fear, happy, sad and surprise). We adopt the Potts model for the probability modeling of the lexical network. The lexical network has been constructed by connecting each pair of words in which one of the two words appears in the gloss of the other. Starting with a small number of emotional seed words, the emotional categories of other words have been determined. With manual checking of top 200 words from each class an average precision of 85.41% has been

Coupling and Bernoullicity in random-cluster and Potts models
An explicit coupling construction of random-cluster measures is presented. As one of the applications of the construction, the Potts model on amenable Cayley graphs is shown to exhibit at every temperature the mixing property known as Bernoullicity.
متن کاملExtracting Dependency Frames from Existing Lexical Resources
One method for evaluating a wide-coverage parser involves measuring how accurately it identifies dependency relations. The construction of a grammar which outputs dependency relations requires a lexicon with detailed information on subcategorization and dependency. We discuss how such a lexicon can be constructed automatically for a wide-coverage lexicalist grammar for Dutch by extracting the r...
متن کاملLife-wise Language Learning Textbooks: Construction and Validation of an Emotional Abilities Scale through Rasch Modeling
Underlying the recently developed notions of applied ELT and life syllabus is the idea that language classes should give precedence to learners’ life qualities, for instance emotional intelligence (EI), over and above their language skills. By so doing, ELT is ascribed an autonomous status and ELT classes can lavish their full potentials to the learners. With that in mind, this study aimed to d...

متن کاملAutomatic Construction and Global Optimization of a Multisentiment Lexicon
Manual annotation of sentiment lexicons costs too much labor and time, and it is also difficult to get accurate quantification of emotional intensity. Besides, the excessive emphasis on one specific field has greatly limited the applicability of domain sentiment lexicons (Wang et al., 2010). This paper implements statistical training for large-scale Chinese corpus through neural network languag...
