Abstract
In this modern era, we depend more and more on machines for day to day activities. However, there is a huge gap between computer and human in emotional thinking, which is the central factor in human communication. This gap can be bridged by implementing several computational approaches, which induce emotional intelligence into a machine. Emotion detection from text is one such method to make the computers emotionally intelligent because text is one of themajor media for communication among humans and with the computers. In this paper, we propose an approachwhich adds natural language processing techniques to improve the performance of learning based emotion classifier by considering the syntactic and semantic features of text. We also present a comprehensive overview of emerging field of emotion detection from text.
