This repository holds code and data of our NAACL 2018 paper on word emotion induction. This README file will shortly be updated and extended.
Word emotion induction is the task of predicting some complex emotion score for a given word.

Our code for word embeddings is loosely based on the Hyperwords package by Levy et al. (2015). The original code for the boosted multi-layer perceptron approach by Du and Zhang (2016) can be found here.
