Saqib Qamar, Parvez Ahmad . Emotion Detection from Text using Fuzzy Logic. International Journal of Computer Applications. 121, 3 ( July 2015), 29-32. DOI=10.5120/21522-4501
In this paper we propose to use fuzzy logic in detecting emotional content from text. Fuzzy logic was developed to deal with concepts that do not have well-defined, sharp boundaries, which theoretically is ideal for emotion as no well-defined boundaries are defined for emotion categories (e. g. , happiness, sadness, surprise, fear, disgust, and anger). The transition from one physiological state of emotion to another is also gradual and could easily be modeled by fuzzy logic approach.
