Toward a unifying model for Opinion, Sentiment and Emotion information extraction

Patrick Paroubek, Amel Fraisse

Abstract:

This paper presents a logical formalization of a set 20 semantic categories related to opinion, emotion and sentiment. Our formalization
is based on the BDI model (Belief, Desire and Intetion) and constitues a first step toward a unifying model for subjective information
extraction. The separability of the subjective classes that we propose was assessed both formally and on two subjective reference corpora.
