Basic Introduction to Sentic Computing: Sentic computing is an interdisciplinary field that combines affective computing (emotions and feelings) and commonsense computing to analyze sentiments and opinions on the web effectively. Its goal is to enhance the recognition, interpretation, and processing of sentiments by leveraging computer science and social science techniques. Key Models and Resources: a) The Hourglass of Emotions: The Hourglass of Emotions is a popular model used in sentic computing. It represents emotions as a hierarchy, ranging from basic emotions (e.g., joy, anger) to complex emotions (e.g., love, guilt). This model helps in understanding the relationships and transitions between different emotional states. b) Sentic Patterns: Sentic Patterns are linguistic patterns or templates that capture the expression of sentiments in text.They are useful for sentiment analysis as they provide a way to identify and extract sentiment-related information from text. For example, a p...
What to do When You Don't Have Gold Standard Images to Compare Your Processed Images How to Measure the Quality of Images When You Don't Have Gold Standard Images to Compare In the realm of image analysis and processing, quantifying image quality forms a crucial cornerstone of various methodologies. This is especially true when there's a lack of gold standard images or ground truth to set the benchmark. In such scenarios, we're often left asking: how can we measure image quality objectively or subjectively? Let's delve into this topic with an emphasis on establishing robust and reliable metrics for image quality analysis. Objective Measurement of Image Quality Without Ground Truth Objective quality metrics quantify the difference between two images based on numerical methods. But, how do we assess image quality objectivel...
