Using embeddings to give shape to words

Word Emotion Shapes

This project visualizes the emotional connotation of words using embeddings.

For a given word, we calculate the cosine distance to each emotion (represented by an emoji and description), and use this data to create a Catmull-Rom curve.

• We use OpenAI Embeddings to calculate the semantic similarities. You can find the relevant code in api/scores/route.ts.
• Visualization and animations are powered by Nivo.

Developing
