Dissertation on sentiment analysis
09-Jun-2010
Yesterday I defended my dissertation on sentiment analysis, actually entitled
"Natural Language Processing techniques applied to speech technologies".
The gist of this research is the automatic extraction of affective
information from text in order to feed a speech enabled application with
this particular human feature. For example, in a speech synthesis
environment, the system would be directed by these affective tags in
order to yield expressiveness in speech. Conversely, in a speech
recognition environment, the system would enable dealing with the
textual domain and refine its recognition capabilities. In all, this
value-add should help improve the interface between humans and machines.
I'm very content because I got very interesting feedback from the examining board
(and also because they gave it an excellent mark ;)
I'm looking forward to publishing the results as soon as possible.
Thanks to all who supported and advised me during these two years. Indeed.
