Max Pellert will talk about his research with David Garcia and Hannah Metzler at the 7th International Conference on Computational Social Science, which takes place as an online event.
Abstract:
We ran an online survey to gather daily emotion self-reports and compare them with aggregated results of sentiment analysis of user discussions on the same newspaper platform.
Using a combination of supervised and unsupervised methods we show that macro level dynamics of emotions can be tracked with social media text.
