Last modified: 2017-05-24
Abstract
In this work we introduce an innovative approach for “Sentiment Analysis†or Opinion Mining, that is classically based on the concept that some words have positive or negative meanings. Infact, introducing the Plutchick score, it is possible to achieve an Emotional Analysis, that is a deeper analysis over the polarity.
The original contribution of the paper is to present a program on Italian Emotional analysis of social networks hashtag mainly as part of “InfoSphereâ€. For this scope we introduce AIN EMOTION, an evolution of AIN Thesaurus, that is the first italian thesaurus for Emotional Analysis. This analysis gives a ratio of emotional hashtag on shared by social network users, can produce a behavioral trend and could be applied to any other language simply by changing the “emotional thesaurusâ€.
