pip install -e ./The pacakge relies on a pre-calculated data frame that needs to be downloaded. You can use the following command in a Python console or notebook:
import vMFD
vMFD.download_data("word_moral_appeals_googlenews")You can replace word_moral_appeals_googlenews with other categories. Currently the following categories are supported:
| Category name | Note |
|---|---|
| word_moral_appeals_googlenews | Based on pretrained embedding by Google. The embedding contains 300-dimensional vectors for 3 million words and phrases. See https://code.google.com/archive/p/word2vec/ for details. |
Once the data is downloaded, you can calculate the moral intuitions of any text.
import vMFD
vo = vMFD.vMFD()
# Only calculate the valence
vo.calculate_valence("Trump is the best president")
# Calculate all metrics
vo.calculate_metrics("Trump is the best president")
