Detection of visual positive sentiment using PCNN

Abstract

Many people all over the world use online social networks to express their feeling and sharing their experience, and the easiest way from their perspective is using images and videos to do so. This paper shows the utilization of two techniques (Viola et al algorithm and Pulse coupled Neural Network) in visual sentiment analysis using a hand-labeled dataset. The proposed system, which uses the PCNN with NN classifier, achieves 96% right classification, whereas Viola algorithm achieves 94% for the same dataset.
