Speech Sentiment Analysis? #2

Open jmausolf opened 6 years ago

jmausolf commented 6 years ago

It would be useful to understand the valence of the speech---for example, by using sentiment analysis to figure out if mentions of inequality and fair trade have a positive or negative connotation. This could be mentioned simply as a suggestion for further research---but it is an important one, since we need to understand not only if politicians talk about these issues but also how.

Hmmm...but how do we think about what's next.
