Abstract

We developed and validated a language-agnostic method for sentiment analysis. Cross-language experiments carried out on the new MultiEmo dataset with texts in 11 languages proved that LaBSE embeddings with an additional attention layer implemented in the BiLSTM architecture outperformed other methods in most cases.

This work was partially supported by the National Science Centre, Poland, project no. 2020/37/B/ST6/03806; by the statutory funds of the Department of Artificial Intelligence, Wroclaw University of Science and Technology; by the European Regional Development Fund as a part of the 2014-2020 Smart Growth Operational Programme, CLARIN - Common Language Resources and Technology Infrastructure, project no. POIR.04.02.00-00C002/19.
