"Multimodal sentiment analysis" is a group of methods that constitute the gold standard for an AI dialog system with sentiment detection. These methods can automatically analyze a person's psychological state from their speech, voice color, facial expression, and posture and are crucial for human-centered AI systems. The technique could potentially realize an emotionally intelligent AI with beyond-human capabilities, which understands the user's sentiment and generates a response accordingly. However, current emotion estimation methods focus only on observable information and do not account for the information contained in unobservable signals, such as physiological signals. Such signals are a potential gold mine of emotions that could improve the sentiment estimation performance tremendously.

We are now privy to a spectacular array of communication tools with the potential to connect us all for greater understanding and tolerance. But SA software is counterproductive for open dialog at best, and fundamentally corrosive at worst. It is sure to infuse discord and distrust, much the way the internet is now viewed--isolating us, dividing us into segmented groups--when, at the net's inception, it was supposed to unite the planet. Even more destructive, SA software for SaaS products, like spying on our kids, or when used for marketing to influence elections by insighting ignorant, angry people to elect the second-coming of Hitler, has, and will continue to put even greater distance between us.

Every day a large number of social media users are produced who can be used to analyze their ideas on any event, film, product or politics. Common tools like Apache Storm analyze streams in micro-batch while novel tools like Apache Spark process data in real time to make analyzing and processing real-time data possible.

The function for the negation handler is available at my Github repo. An example of the function output is shown below. 'Negation' is the main function being called on the tokenized sentence as shown. In the function, whenever a negation word (like'not', "n't", 'non-', 'un-', etc) is encountered, a set of cognitive synonyms called synsets are generated for the word next to the negation. These synsets are interlinked by conceptual semantic and lexical relations to each other in a lexical database called WordNet.

Call Center sentiment analysis is the processing of data by identifying the natural nuance of customer context and analyzing data to make customer service more empathetic. If you are employed in Call Center, the following scenario might be familiar: You get a call from a client and hear their words with stress. The cause for such a cataclysmic reaction: They got a bad rating for their products or business. Some of those reviews might be negative, formal, and neutral. Knowing what someone meant can be tricky unless you understand their emotional quotient.

Euphemisms have not received much attention in natural language processing, despite being an important element of polite and figurative language. Euphemisms prove to be a difficult topic, not only because they are subject to language change, but also because humans may not agree on what is a euphemism and what is not. Nevertheless, the first step to tackling the issue is to collect and analyze examples of euphemisms. We present a corpus of potentially euphemistic terms (PETs) along with example texts from the GloWbE corpus. Additionally, we present a subcorpus of texts where these PETs are not being used euphemistically, which may be useful for future applications. We also discuss the results of multiple analyses run on the corpus. Firstly, we find that sentiment analysis on the euphemistic texts supports that PETs generally decrease negative and offensive sentiment. Secondly, we observe cases of disagreement in an annotation task, where humans are asked to label PETs as euphemistic or not in a subset of our corpus text examples. We attribute the disagreement to a variety of potential reasons, including if the PET was a commonly accepted term (CAT).

The Covid-19 pandemic has led to infodemic of low quality information leading to poor health decisions. Combating the outcomes of this infodemic is not only a question of identifying false claims, but also reasoning about the decisions individuals make. In this work we propose a holistic analysis framework connecting stance and reason analysis, and fine-grained entity level moral sentiment analysis. We study how to model the dependencies between the different level of analysis and incorporate human insights into the learning process. Experiments show that our framework provides reliable predictions even in the low-supervision settings.

Transformers are one of the most exciting concepts in Natural Language Processing. This article is a guide on working with pre-trained models that use transformers. A transformer model is a neural…

Aspect-level sentiment analysis aims to determine the sentiment polarity towards a specific target in a sentence. The main challenge of this task is to effectively model the relation between targets and sentiments so as to filter out noisy opinion words from irrelevant targets. Most recent efforts capture relations through target-sentiment pairs or opinion spans from a word-level or phrase-level perspective. Based on the observation that targets and sentiments essentially establish relations following the grammatical hierarchy of phrase-clause-sentence structure, it is hopeful to exploit comprehensive syntactic information for better guiding the learning process. Therefore, we introduce the concept of Scope, which outlines a structural text region related to a specific target. To jointly learn structural Scope and predict the sentiment polarity, we propose a hybrid graph convolutional network (HGCN) to synthesize information from constituency tree and dependency tree, exploring the potential of linking two syntax parsing methods to enrich the representation. Experimental results on four public datasets illustrate that our HGCN model outperforms current state-of-the-art baselines.
