Description ℹ
With this model, you can classify emotions in English text data. The model was trained on 6 diverse datasets (see Appendix below) and predicts Ekman's 6 basic emotions, plus a neutral class:
- anger 🤬
- disgust 🤢
- fear 😨
- joy 😀
- neutral 😐
- sadness 😭
- surprise 😲
The model is a fine-tuned checkpoint of DistilRoBERTa-base. For a 'non-distilled' emotion model, please refer to the model card of the RoBERTa-large version.
Application 🚀
a) Run emotion model with 3 lines of code on single text example using Hugging Face's pipeline command on Google Colab:
b) Run emotion model on multiple examples and full datasets (e.g., .csv files) on Google Colab:

Appendix 📚
Please find an overview of the datasets used for training below. All datasets contain English text. The table summarizes which emotions are available in each of the datasets. The datasets represent a diverse collection of text types. Specifically, they contain emotion labels for texts from Twitter, Reddit, student self-reports, and utterances from TV dialogues. As MELD (Multimodal EmotionLines Dataset) extends the popular EmotionLines dataset, EmotionLines itself is not included here.

The model is trained on a balanced subset from the datasets listed above (2,811 observations per emotion, i.e., nearly 20k observations in total). 80% of this balanced subset is used for training and 20% for evaluation. The evaluation accuracy is 66% (vs. the random-chance baseline of 1/7 = 14%).
