Abstract
In this article, we present our work in social emotion prediction to online trending topics. While most prior works focus on emotion from writers or the readers’ emotions evoked by news articles, we investigate discussions from massive social media users and explore the public feelings to the online trending topic. We employ user-generated “#hashtags” to indicate online trending topics and construct a large-scale Chinese dataset for social emotion prediction (LCSEP) to trending topics collected from the Chinese microblog Sina Weibo. It contains more than 20 000 trending topics, each with social emotions voted in 24 fine-grained types, and gathers hashtags, posts, comments, and related metadata to give each trending topic a thorough context. We also propose a
Hashtag- and Topic-Enhanced Attention Model
(
HTEAM
) that combines a pretrained BERT model, a neural topic model, and an attention mechanism via joint training to understand social emotion. Experiments show that
HTEAM
outperforms baselines and achieves the state-of-the-art result.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Transactions on Computational Social Systems focuses on such topics as modeling, simulation, analysis and understanding of social systems from the quantitative and/or computational perspective. "Systems" include man-man, man-machine and machine-machine organizations and adversarial situations as well as social media structures and their dynamics. More specifically, the proposed transactions publishes articles on modeling the dynamics of social systems, methodologies for incorporating and representing socio-cultural and behavioral aspects in computational modeling, analysis of social system behavior and structure, and paradigms for social systems modeling and simulation. The journal also features articles on social network dynamics, social intelligence and cognition, social systems design and architectures, socio-cultural modeling and representation, and computational behavior modeling, and their applications.
