Emotional semantics are the highest level of semantics that can be extracted from an image. Constructing a system that can automatically recognize the emotional semantics from images will be significant for marketing, smart healthcare, and deep human-computer interaction. To understand the direction of image emotion recognition as well as the general research methods, we summarize the current development trends and shed light on potential future research. The primary contributions of this paper are as follows. We investigate the color, texture, shape and contour features used for emotional semantics extraction. We establish two models that map images into emotional space and introduce in detail the various processes in the image emotional semantic recognition framework. We also discuss important datasets and useful applications in the field such as garment image and image retrieval. We conclude with a brief discussion about future research trends.

Interrogative sentences are generally used to perform speech acts of directly asking a question or making a request, but they are also used to convey such speech acts indirectly. In the utterances, such indirect uses of interrogative sentences usually carry speaker's emotion with a negative attitude, which is close to an expression of anger. The identification of such negative emotion is known as a difficult problem that requires relevant information in syntax, semantics, discourse, pragmatics, and speech signals. In this paper, we argue that the interrogatives used for indirect speech acts could serve as a dominant marker for identifying the emotional attitudes, such as anger, as compared to other emotion-related markers, such as discourse markers, adverbial words, and syntactic markers. To support such an argument, we analyze the dialogues collected from the Korean soap operas, and examine individual or cooperative influences of the emotion-related markers on emotional realization. The user study shows that the interrogatives could be utilized as a promising device for emotion identification.

In a prevailing view of meaning and reference (cf. Frege 1892), words pick out entities in the physical world by virtue of meaning. Linguists and philosophers have argued whether the meaning of a word is inside or out-side language users' mind; but, in general, they have taken it for granted that words refer to entities in the physical world. Hilary Putnam (1975), based on his famous twin-earth thought experiment, argued that the meaning of a word could not be inside language users' head. In this paper, I point out that Putnam's argument makes sense only if words refer to entities in the physical world. That is, Putnam did not provide any argument against mentalistic semantics, since he erroneously assumed that meaning, but not reference, was inside our mind in mentalistic semantics. Mentalistic semanticist, however, assume that words pick out their references inside our head (instead of a possible outside world). A number of arguments for the mentalistic position come from psychology: studies on emotion and visual perception provide numerous cases where words cannot pick out entities from the physical world, but inside our head. The mentalistic theory has desirable consequences for the philosophy of language in that some classical puzzles of language (e.g. Russell's (1919) well-known puzzle of excluded middle) are explained well in the proposed theory.

Image topic and emotion analysis is an important component of online image retrieval, which nowadays has become very popular in the widely growing social media community. However, due to the gaps between images and texts, there is very limited work in literature to detect one image's Topics and Emotions in a unified framework, although topics and emotions are two levels of semantics that often work together to comprehensively describe one image. In this work, a unified model, Joint Topic/Emotion Multi-Modal Hierarchical Latent Dirichlet Allocation (JTE-MMHLDA) model, which extends previous LDA, mmLDA, and JST model to capture topic and emotion information at the same time from heterogeneous data, is proposed. Specifically, a two level graphical structured model is built to realize sharing topics and emotions among the whole document collection. The experimental results on a Flickr dataset indicate that the proposed model efficiently discovers images' topics and emotions, and significantly outperform the text-only system by 4.4%, vision-only system by 18.1% in topic detection, and outperforms the text-only system by 7.1%, vision-only system by 39.7% in emotion detection.

In our previous research, we proposed a tag emotion-based item recommendation scheme. The ternary associations among users, items, and tags are described as a three-order tensor in order to capture the emotions in tags. The candidates for recommendation are created based on the latent semantics derived by a high-order singular value decomposition technique (HOSVD). However, the tensor is very sparse because the number of tagged items is smaller than the amount of all items. The previous research do not consider the previous behaviors of users and items. To mitigate the problems, in this paper, the item-based collaborative filtering scheme is used to build an extended data. We also apply the probabilistic ranking algorithm considering the user and item profiles to improve the recommendation performance. The proposed method is evaluated based on Movielens dataset, and the results show that our approach improves the performance compared to other methods.

The current software industry has an emerging issue with natural language-based requirement specifications. However, the accuracy of such requirement analysis remains a concern. It is noted that most errors still occur at the requirement specification stage. Defining and analyzing requirements based on natural language has become necessary. To address this issue, the linguistic theories of Chomsky and Fillmore are applied to the analysis of natural language-based requirements. This involves identifying the semantics of morphemes and nouns. Consequently, a mechanism was proposed for extracting object state designs and automatically generating code templates. Building on this mechanism, I suggest generating natural language-based comic images. Utilizing state diagrams, I apply changes to the states of comic characters (protagonists) and extract variations in their expressions. This introduces a novel approach to comic image generation. I anticipate highly productive comic creation by applying software processes to Cartoon ART.

This study is interested in how philological interpretation of a space text were patterned so as to give the text structural cohesion. A similar philological motivation incorporates some of the notions of generative grammar. Interpretation is the process of recovering the cultural meanings expressed in discourse by analysing the linguistic structures in the light of their interactional and wider social contexts. Viewed in this light, the process of this study is illustrated as follows: At first, this research contains basic concepts of signification of text and context, and theories of spacial text and context of typological structure in terms of Ricoeur's structural Hermeneutics. Secondly, it concretize a logic that traditional space context is inserted in organized attribute like emotion, spirit, nature as character of contemporary space text through typological structure. Finally, from aspect of designation theory among interpretive semantics, it shows that korean contemporary space design is incorporated with typological structure of korean traditional palace spacial context homologically through the case study of I-Hotel space design. Through this process, this study suggest that positivistic interpretation methodology by designation of text is logical thinking of Korean traditional space design.

기존 텍스트 감성 분석 모델에서는 일반적으로 전체 텍스트를 직접 모델링하고, 텍스트 내용 간의 계층적 관계를 덜 고려한다. 그러나 감정분석의 구현에서는 많은 텍스트가 여러 감정으로 뒤섞여 있다. 전체의 의미론적 모델링을 직접 수행하면 감성분석 모델의 판단 난도가 높아져 혼합 감정 문장의 분류에 적용하기 어려울 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 텍스트 계층을 고려한 감성 분석 모델 BHGCN을 제안한다. 이 모델에서는 BERT의 각 레이어의 숨겨진 상태의 출력이 노드로 사용되며, 상위 레이어와 하위 레이어 사이에 직접 연결이 이루어져 의미 계층이 있는 그래프 네트워크를 구축한다. BHGCN 모델은 계층별 의미론에 주의를 기울일 뿐만 아니라 계층적 관계에도 주의를 기울이기 때문에 혼합 감성 분류 작업을 처리하는 데 적합하다. 본 논문에서는 비교 실험을 통해 제안하는 BHGCN 모델이 명백한 경쟁 우위를 보인다는 것을 입증하였다.
