Abstract
The detection of emotions in text is a key issue for the de- velopment of intelligent systems. As demonstrated by the Turing test, a machine cannot be considered really intelligent unless it is also capable of perceiving and expressing emotions. In this work we focus on building a knowledge base which merges Common Sense and affective knowledge and use dimensionality reduction to perform emotive reasoning on it.
