Goals of the Workshop
-----------------------
Sentiment Analysis (SA) from natural language text is a multifaceted and
multidisciplinary AI problem, tries to narrow the communicative gap between
the highly sentimental human and the sentimentally challenged computer by
developing computational systems that recognize and respond to the
sentimental states of the human users.
In recent times, research activities in the areas of Opinion, Sentiment
and/or Emotion in natural language texts and other media are gaining ground
under the umbrella of subjectivity analysis and affect computing. The
reason may be the huge amount of available text data in the Social Web in
the forms of news, reviews, blogs, chats and even twitter.
Research community are well familiar with the natural language data
insufficiency. Any research or development issue for Natural Language
Processing (NLP) systems demand adequate data for training, testing or
evaluation. Indian NLP community is not an exception rather it is a
challenging issue to collect multilingual data. India is the language
diverse country, where the numbers of official languages are presently 24.
Most of the Indian languages are electronically resource scared; therefore
resource creation is the striking need to start Sentiment Analysis (rather
any kind of NLP) research for any of the Indian languages. Prime motivation
of SAIL 2013 is to gather researchers, experts and practitioners together
to discuss, collaborate and instigate the SA research particularly for
Indian languages, which involves resource creation, sharing and future
collaboration.
We welcome original and unpublished submissions on all aspects of sentiment
analysis. Topics include, but are not limited to:
