Abstract

SenticNet is currently one of the most comprehensive freely available semantic resources for opinion mining. However, it only provides numerical polarity scores, while more detailed sentiment-related information for its concepts is often desirable. Another important resource for opinion mining and sentiment analysis is WordNet-Affect, which in turn lacks quantitative information. We report a work on automatically merging these two resources by assigning emotion labels to more than 2700 concepts.
