Abstract
Detecting emotion in text allows social and computational scientists to study how people behave and react to online events. However, developing these tools for different languages requires data that is not always available. This paper collects the available emotion detection datasets across 19 languages. We train a multilingual emotion prediction model for social media data, XLM-EMO. The model shows competitive performance in a zero-shot setting, suggesting it is helpful in the context of low-resource languages. We release our model to the community so that interested researchers can directly use it.
Model
This model is the fine-tuned version of the XLM-T model.
Intended Use
The model is intended as a research output for research communities.
Primary intended uses
The primary intended users of these models are AI researchers.
Results
This model had an F1 of 0.85 on the test set.
