Title Valentino: A Tool for Valence Shifting of Natural Language Texts
Authors Marco Guerini, Carlo Strapparava and Oliviero Stock
Abstract In this paper a first implementation of a tool for valence shifting of natural language texts, named Valentino (VALENced Text INOculator), is presented. Valentino can modify existing textual expressions towards more positively or negatively valenced versions. To this end we built specific resources gathering various valenced terms that are semantically or contextually connected, and implemented strategies that uses these resources for substituting input terms.
