Getting Started

from pysentimiento import create_analyzer
analyzer = create_analyzer(task="sentiment", lang="es")

analyzer.predict("Qué gran jugador es Messi")
# returns AnalyzerOutput(output=POS, probas={POS: 0.998, NEG: 0.002, NEU: 0.000})
analyzer.predict("Esto es pésimo")
# returns AnalyzerOutput(output=NEG, probas={NEG: 0.999, POS: 0.001, NEU: 0.000})
analyzer.predict("Qué es esto?")
# returns AnalyzerOutput(output=NEU, probas={NEU: 0.993, NEG: 0.005, POS: 0.002})

analyzer.predict("jejeje no te creo mucho")
# AnalyzerOutput(output=NEG, probas={NEG: 0.587, NEU: 0.408, POS: 0.005})
"""
Emotion Analysis in English
"""

emotion_analyzer = create_analyzer(task="emotion", lang="en")

emotion_analyzer.predict("yayyy")
# returns AnalyzerOutput(output=joy, probas={joy: 0.723, others: 0.198, surprise: 0.038, disgust: 0.011, sadness: 0.011, fear: 0.010, anger: 0.009})
emotion_analyzer.predict("fuck off")
# returns AnalyzerOutput(output=anger, probas={anger: 0.798, surprise: 0.055, fear: 0.040, disgust: 0.036, joy: 0.028, others: 0.023, sadness: 0.019})

"""
Hate Speech (misogyny & racism)
"""
hate_speech_analyzer = create_analyzer(task="hate_speech", lang="es")

hate_speech_analyzer.predict("Esto es una mierda pero no es odio")
# returns AnalyzerOutput(output=[], probas={hateful: 0.022, targeted: 0.009, aggressive: 0.018})
hate_speech_analyzer.predict("Esto es odio porque los inmigrantes deben ser aniquilados")
# returns AnalyzerOutput(output=['hateful'], probas={hateful: 0.835, targeted: 0.008, aggressive: 0.476})

hate_speech_analyzer.predict("Vaya guarra barata y de poca monta es XXXX!")
# returns AnalyzerOutput(output=['hateful', 'targeted', 'aggressive'], probas={hateful: 0.987, targeted: 0.978, aggressive: 0.969})

See TASKS for more details on the supported tasks and languages, and also for reported performance for each benchmarked model.

Also, check these notebooks with examples of how to use pysentimiento for each language:

• Spanish + English
• Italian
• Portuguese
• Contextualized Hate Speech - Spanish

Preprocessing

pysentimiento features a tweet preprocessor specially suited for tweet classification with transformer-based models.

from pysentimiento.preprocessing import preprocess_tweet

# Replaces user handles and URLs by special tokens
preprocess_tweet("@perezjotaeme debería cambiar esto http://bit.ly/sarasa") # "@usuario debería cambiar esto url"

# Shortens repeated characters
preprocess_tweet("no entiendo naaaaaaaadaaaaaaaa", shorten=2) # "no entiendo naadaa"

# Normalizes laughters
preprocess_tweet("jajajajaajjajaajajaja no lo puedo creer ajajaj") # "jaja no lo puedo creer jaja"

# Handles hashtags
preprocess_tweet("esto es #UnaGenialidad")
# "esto es una genialidad"

# Handles emojis
preprocess_tweet("🎉🎉", lang="en")
# 'emoji party popper emoji emoji party popper emoji'
