Optimization Of Textual Affect Entity Relation Models, Ajith Cherukad Jose

Masters Theses

"Affective computing is a recent research area in computer science which deals with the design and development of systems that can recognize, interpret and process human affects/emotions. Various research projects in the past have focused on affect sensing and processing raw textual data. One such research effort conducted at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has introduced an affect propagation algorithm which can generate affective relationships between entities contained in a given textual document. The algorithm depends upon a set of real-valued numeric parameters for which the best possible values are unknown. This thesis describes three different contributions to ORNL's …
