More information about this demo

IBM's Tone analytics can currently try to determine the emotion conveyed in text on a document level. If you wanted to view the emotion conveyed on a sentence level, you can break your text up into sentences and send it to their API. Emotion analysis is a useful tool when categorising feedback for a course, etc or flagging comments on a chatbot for example.


Things to consider

Similarly to other Natural Language Understanding tools, Emotion Analysis is not always 100% accurate and can encounter difficulty when assessing text that contains negations, sarcasm and irony.
