Sumario:This paper describes a system for automatic emotion classification, developed for the 2011 i2b2 Natural Language Processing Challenge, Track 2. The objective of the shared task was to label suicide notes with 15 relevant emotions on the sentence level. Our system uses 15 SVM models (one for each emotion) using the combination of features that was found to perform best on a given emotion. Features included lemmas and trigram bag of words, and information from semantic resources such as WordNet, SentiWordNet and subjectivity clues. The best-performing system labeled 7 of the 15 emotions and achieved an F-score of 53.31% on the test data.
