Applied Sciences (Impact Factor: 2.7)

Special Issue on "Application of Artificial Intelligence Methods in Processing of Emotions, Decisions and Opinions"

Special Issue Information

During recent years, social infrastructure has become irreversibly linked to the Internet through its everyday manifestations, such as social networking services (Twitter, Facebook, etc.). Every second this new tangible information-based reality provides large amounts of data filled with 1) emotional expressions; 2) people's opinions on various topics; and 3) their reasoning, revealing their decision-making processes. As these three categories are also closely interrelated with each other, they should be studied together to obtain a more robust view on all of the topics involved. This, as never before, provides an opportunity for the development and application of natural language processing methods, in particular those regarding such topics as emotion processing, decision-making, and opinion mining.

For this issue, we invite high-quality papers from researchers with an interest in knowing more about those topics and their connection to the world we live in through opinion and sentiment analysis, recommendation systems, web mining, automated decision-making, etc. We also invite papers on the topic of using Natural Language Processing tools and methods to process emotions, metaphors, ethics, or other phenomena related to human activities.

List of Topics

The Special Issue will invite papers on topics listed, but not limited to the following:

- opinion mining

- decision support systems

- emotion detection

- sentiment analysis

- natural language processing

- computational linguistics

- NLP applications

- natural language generation

- emotional language processing

- humor and joke processing

- deceptive language detection

- emoticon processing

- fake news detection

- abusive language processing

- story generation

- poetry generation

- cognitive agents
