| Challenge: | sentiment analysis has seen an explosive expansion over the last decade or so . many theoretical and methodological questions remain unanswered and resource gaps unfilled . |
| Approach: | They develop a sentiment lexicon for written (standard) Swedish using an existing dataset . they assign a real value sentiment score in the range [-1,1] and produce a label for it . |
| Outcome: | The proposed sentiment lexicon is an open source resource from the Swedish Language Bank . it is based on an existing gold standard dataset and is available from Sprkbanken . |

Representation Mapping: A Novel Approach to Generate High-Quality Multi-Lingual Emotion Lexicons (L18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing representational frameworks for emotion encoding are incompatible with semantic polarity, resulting in a large amount of incompatible emotion lexicons. |
| Approach: | They propose to map different emotion representation formats onto each other for mutual compatibility and interoperability of language resources. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method produces (near-)gold quality emotion lexicons even in crosslingual settings. |
