< p > As part of the < a href = "http://www.opener-project.org/2013/07/18/opener-hackathon-in-amsterdam/" > OpeNER
hackathon< / a >
we decided to build a prototype that would allow us to compare how
different countries feel about several topics. We used the OpeNER
pipeline to get the sentiment from a set of newspaper articles we
gathered from media in several languages. Then we aggregated those
articles by category and country (using the source of the article or the
language it was written in), obtaining the “ overall feeling” of each
country about each topic. Then, we used some fancy JavaScript to make
sense out of the raw information.< / p >
