MultiEmotions-It: a New Dataset for Opinion Polarity and Emotion Analysis for Italian

Abstract

English. This paper1 presents a new linguistic resource for Italian, called MultiEmotions-It, containing comments to music videos and advertisements posted on YouTube and Facebook. These comments are manually annotated according to four different dimensions: i.e., relatedness, opinion polarity, emotions and sarcasm. For the annotation of emotions we adopted the Plutchik’s model taking into account both basic and complex emotions, i.e. dyads.
