A Survey on Large Scale Corpora and Emotion Corpora

Abstract

In this paper we present a survey on natural language corpora, with particular focus on corpora of large scale and those applicable to sentiment analysis. Natural language corpora are crucial for training various Software Engineering applications, from part-of-speech taggers and dependency parsers to dialog systems or sentiment analysis software. We compare several natural language corpora created for different languages, analyze their distinctive features and the amount of additional annotations provided by the developers of those corpora.
