A Sentiment-and-Semantics-Based Approach for Emotion Detection in Textual Conversations

Understand

Emotions are physiological states generated in humans in reaction to internal or external events.

• They are complex and studied across numerous fields including computer science.
• As humans, on reading "Why don't you ever text me!" we can either interpret it as a sad or angry emotion and the same ambiguity exists for machines.
• Lack of facial expressions and voice modulations make detecting emotions from text a challenging problem.
