| Challenge: | a negative emotion is a cognitive bias that affects how we express thoughts and opinions online . a recent study shows that negative words generate more engagement and clicks than positive ones . |
| Approach: | They propose to use readability and linguistic complexity metrics to better understand emotions . they propose to fine-tune three state-of-the-art transformers to detect emotions based on a dataset . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model fails to predict emotions on complex texts, the authors show . they also show that more advanced models fail to predict complex texts . |
