# EmoEvent: A Multilingual Emotion Corpus based on different Events |
|
|
|
In recent years emotion detection in text has become more popular due to its potential applications in fields such as psychology, |
|
marketing, political science, and artificial intelligence, among others. While opinion mining is a well-established task with many |
|
standard datasets and well-defined methodologies, emotion mining has received less attention due to its complexity. In particular, |
|
the annotated gold standard resources available are not enough. In order to address this shortage, we present a multilingual emotion |
|
dataset based on different events that took place in April 2019. We collected tweets from the Twitter platform. Then one of seven |
|
emotions, six Ekman’s basic emotions plus the “neutral or other emotions”, was labeled on each tweet by 3 Amazon MTurkers. A total |
|
of 8,409 in Spanish and 7,303 in English were labeled. |
