x-enVENT: A Corpus of Event Descriptions with Experiencer-specific Emotion and Appraisal Annotations (2022.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Emotion classification is often formulated as the task to categorize texts into a predefined set of emotion classes. |
| Approach: | They propose that a classification setup for emotion analysis should be performed in an integrated manner, including the different semantic roles that participate in an emotion episode. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method reveals patterns in the co-occurrence of people’s emotions in interaction. |

Appraisal Theories for Emotion Classification in Text (2020.coling-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Automatic emotion categorization is based on textual units assigned to an emotion from a predefined inventory, for instance following the basic emotion classes proposed by Paul Ekman (1999) or Plutchik (2001). |
| Approach: | They propose to make automatic emotion categorization explicit by following theories of cognitive appraisal of events and show their potential for emotion classification when being encoded in classification models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed models improve the classification of discrete emotion categories by using appraisal dimension assignments in event descriptions. |
Who Feels What and Why? Annotation of a Literature Corpus with Semantic Roles of Emotions (C18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Emotion analysis and classification is a challenging task which has been tackled with relatively straight-forward approaches. |
| Approach: | They propose to annotate emotion trigger phrases and entities in the roles of experiencers, targets, and causes of the emotion in literature by Project Gutenberg. |
| Outcome: | The proposed corpus supports qualitative literary studies and digital humanities. |
An Analysis of Annotated Corpora for Emotion Classification in Text (C18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Several datasets have been annotated and published for classification of emotions. |
| Approach: | They aggregated emotion corpora in a common file format with a shared annotation schema . they perform cross-corpus classification experiments to gain insight and a better understanding of differences . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can be trained on a subset of corpora, but not on all corporata. |
An Emotional Mess! Deciding on a Framework for Building a Dutch Emotion-Annotated Corpus (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing frameworks for emotion recognition are limited and do not allow for categorical versus dimensional oppositions. |
| Approach: | They propose to use the emotions joy, love, anger, sadness and fear as well as dimensional models to annotate texts from different domains and topics. |
| Outcome: | The proposed frameworks are well-suited to annotate texts from different domains and topics, but the connotation of the labels strongly depends on the origin of the texts. |
A (Psycho-)Linguistically Motivated Scheme for Annotating and Exploring Emotions in a Genre-Diverse Corpus (2022.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Using a linguistic perspective, emotion annotation is considered a difficult task because of the lack of consensus on emotional categories, the fuzziness of boundaries between them or the great variability of emotion expressions types. |
| Approach: | They propose a scheme for emotion annotation and its manual application on a genre-diverse corpus of texts written in french. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method clarifies the main concepts implied by the analysis of emotions as they are expressed in texts and performs a manual annotation campaign on a corpus of 1,594 texts (ca. 515K tokens) of different genres. |
An Event-comment Social Media Corpus for Implicit Emotion Analysis (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for identifying implicit emotions have been poor in analyzing explicit emotions. |
| Approach: | They propose to construct a Chinese eventcomment social media emotion corpus which deals with both explicit and implicit emotions with more emphasis being placed on the implicit ones. |
| Outcome: | The proposed corpus will be useful for both explicit and implicit emotion classification and detection as well as event classification. |
Modeling Label Semantics for Predicting Emotional Reactions (2020.acl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for predicting how events induce emotions ignore the semantics of the labels themselves. |
| Approach: | They propose that the semantics of emotion labels can guide a model’s attention when representing the input story. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can model the semantics of emotion labels and track correlations on unlabeled data. |
Interpretable Relevant Emotion Ranking with Event-Driven Attention (D19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies ignore the latent event information in documents . Existing methods for detecting emotions are limited to a few words . |
| Approach: | They propose to integrate event information into a deep learning architecture to extract relevant emotion ranking models using corpus-level event embeddings and document-level events. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model performs better than state-of-the-art emotion detection and multi-label approaches on three real-world corpora and interpretable results shed light on the events which trigger certain emotions. |
GoodNewsEveryone: A Corpus of News Headlines Annotated with Emotions, Semantic Roles, and Reader Perception (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Fewer studies address emotions as a phenomenon to be tackled with structured learning, which can be explained by the lack of relevant datasets. |
| Approach: | They propose to annotate 5000 English news headlines with their associated emotions, the corresponding emotion experiencers and textual cues, related emotion causes and targets, and the reader’s perception of the emotion of the headline. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method enables further research on emotion classification, emotion intensity prediction, emotion cause detection and supports qualitative studies. |

| Challenge: | linguistic models have a higher correlation with human ground truth ratings than labeled data . word vectors have often been evaluated on standard word relatedness benchmarks . |
| Approach: | They propose to use unsupervised, supervised, and finally supervised methods to extract emotional associations from pretrained vectors and models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method shows higher correlation with ground truth ratings than state-of-the-art lexicons based on labeled data. |
