extension of WordNet in order to collect affective concepts and
correlate them with words. I named this rerource <i>WordNet-Affect</i>. It is described in the paper <i>Developing Affective Lexical Resources</i>, written with Carlo Strapparava and Oliviero Stock, and available at <a href="http://www.psychnology.org/jarchive.htm">
psychnology.org</a>.<br>
Another reference is "WordNet-Affect: an affective extension
ofWordNet". In /Proceedings ofthe 4th International Conference on
Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2004)/, Lisbon, May 2004, pp.
1083-1086.<br>
Alessandro Oltremari described possible uses of this resource in as an ontology of emotional concepts. The paper is <i>Unfolding the mental: the role of cognitive structures</i> and it is available in the proceedings of
<i><a href="http://musil.uni-muenster.de/workshop2004/index.php?m1=Papers">MUSIL. Workshop on the Potential of Cognitive Semantics for Ontologies</a></i>
The resource is part of WordNet Domains and it is <a href="http://wndomains.itc.it/download.html">free available</a>.
Currently, I am working to a substantial reorganization of
WordNet-Affect in order to use it as an ontology. Starting from a
subset of affective synset, I am selecting an "affective core" with a
set of affective categories, hierarchically organized. I hope to
finished this work in one or two months. If you are interested on it, I
can provide you with further informations on these improvements of the
resources. From another hand, I am interested too to your possible
applications about the topic of your thesis.<br><br><br>Kev<br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 6/1/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Claire Jessel</b> <<a href="mailto:claire.jessel@uma.at">claire.jessel@uma.at
