Computer-aided analysis of opinions and emotions in texts
The book "Opinion Mining and Lexical Affect Sensing" demonstrates a broad scope of scientific experimentation, in that it explores a variety of approaches to affect categorisation far beyond a mere classification of texts, and outlining applications in dialogue systems and robotics. The PhD thesis Opinion mining and lexical affect sensing is a valuable contribution to automatic emotion identification. It has a broad experimental scope since four main approaches with several variants are presented, discussed and assessed by the authors in terms of performance and potential.
