Custom polarity options in Aylien sentiment analysis

I doubt it, as this is a third party tool designed for use for lots of different people with different use cases.

You could either remap the existing polarities returned, or contact Aylien about developing a custom version for you.  Either that, or try building your own sentiment models in RapidMiner.

Hi @m_oke - I would look into IBM Watson's Tone Analyzer API.  I use it all the time and will give you what you are looking for.

Nice, @sgenzer --do you have a sample RM process for that?  Or are you using it outside of RM?

outside of RapidMiner?  Why would I do that?  

Here you go:

Nice, I will check it out!

I will definitely check this out and feedback, thank you @sgenzer

@sgenzer I see that the document you used for the project is on your desktop.

If there are no privacy issues, do you mind making the document publicly avaliable?

@m_oke haha.  There are no privacy issues as long as you don't kill yourself laughing too much.  The doc is a anonymously-cleansed version of report card comments I gave my students back in 2006.    They are attached.
