Sentiframes: A Resource for Verb-centered German Sentiment Inference
Proceedings of the Tenth International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2016)
Abstract
In this paper, a German verb resource for verb-centered sentiment inference is introduced and evaluated. Our model specifies verb polarity frames that capture the polarity effects on the fillers of the verb's arguments given a sentence with that verb frame. Verb signatures and selectional restrictions are also part of the model. An algorithm to apply the verb resource to treebank sentences and the results of our first evaluation are discussed.
