The Color of Emotions in Texts
Color affects every aspect of our lives. There has been a considerable interest in the psycholinguistic research area addressing the impact of color on emotions. In the experiments conducted by these studies, subjects have usually been asked to indicate their emotional responses to different colors. On the other side, sensing emotions in text by using NLP techniques has recently become a popular topic in computational linguistics. In this paper, we introduce a semantic similarity mechanism acquired from a large corpus of texts in order to check the similarity of colors and emotions. Then we investigate the correlation of our results with the outcomes of some psycholinguistic experiments. The conclusions are quite interesting. The correlation varies among different colors and globally we achieve very good results.
