TASK11 at SEMEVAL-2015: Sentiment Analysis of Figurative Language in Twitter

The task: given a set of tweets that are rich in irony and metaphor,  
the goal is to determine whether the user has expressed a positive,  
negative or neutral sentiment. A fine-grained sentiment scale (scores  
in the range -5...+5) will be used to capture the effect of irony and  
metaphor on the perceived sentiment of a tweet. Participating systems  
will have to assign sentiment scores from the same fine-grained scale  
to a set of given tweets.

Trial (1000 figurative tweets) and  training data  (8000 figurative  
tweets): annotated and available at  
http://alt.qcri.org/semeval2015/task11

Important dates:
?	Evaluation period: November 15 -30, 2014
?	Paper submission due: January 30, 2015
?	Paper reviews due: February 28, 2015
?	Camera ready due: March 30, 2015
?	SemEval workshop: Summer 2015
