SPICE CASE STUDIES

Did you miss them? Here’s a look at how SPICE’s case studies contributed.


PAPER

Language-based approaches to emotion categorization

A complementary account to emotion extraction and classification in #culturalheritage based on the Plutchik’s theory” by Andrea Bolioli, Alessio Bosca, Rossana Damiano, Antonio Lieto and Manuel Striani. This paper presents a combined approach to knowledge-based emotion attribution and classification of cultural items employed in the H2020 project SPICE. In particular, we show a preliminary experimentation conducted on a selection of items contributed by the GAM Museum in Turin (Galleria di Arte Moderna).
