Review Comment:
The paper is a survey paper about ontologies for affective states. It provides an introduction of psychological research (and common models) for emotion, mood, sentiment, personality, needs and their relations to affective states. Afterwards, emotion related lexicons are described, before several ontologies are compared in the main section.
(1) Suitability as introductory text, targeted at researchers, PhD students, or practitioners, to get started on the covered topic.
+ introduction from psychology and semweb angles
+ structuring the area
+ comparison of several ontologies in tabular forms
(2) How comprehensive and how balanced is the presentation and coverage.
+ various covered and structured
(-) emotions in animals? (happy dog)
- relation to visual emotion/sentiment/aesthetics missing (beautiful sunset):
- e.g., http://www.ee.columbia.edu/ln/dvmm/vso/download/visual_sentiment_ontolog...
- Section 4.1/5: mention which personality trait classes you're referring to
- Section 4.2.1 2nd par: please rephrase, which ontology, which system
- Parts of Section 4 read like unconnected facts, try binding this more and relate to each other.
(3) Readability and clarity of the presentation.
- presentation: graphics look unprofessional and waste a lot of space
- Fig. 1: align text with arrows, make tips visible, use common RDF notation?
- Fig. 2 + 3: waste a lot of space
- Fig. 4: opening tag for emotion missing
- Fig. 6: subject missing, make this valid n3
- presentation: tables inconsistent (size, columns)
- Tables: 1st col should mention Ontology Name / prefix
- Table 1: typos (Llexicons/Llanguage), lines / whitespace would help for right col
- Table 2-5: missing col(s)
- Table 3, 4: size different
- presentation: large amount of typos, singular/plural errors, missing articles, please proofread! Some examples:
- "However,This paper"
- "Fiend of a Friend"
- "As a result, some rows are empty in Table 1." ("cells", no row nor column is empty)
- "WorNet-Affect"
- "The ontology conations"
- "develped"
- "machine(automatic"
- "which are represent in the"
- "an event take place"
(-) remove spaces before footnotes and ")"
(4) Importance of the covered material to the broader Semantic Web community.
+ Important to represent emotion / affective states in RDF
Other remarks:
- Introduction: missing ref to Gruber for "an explicit specification of a conceptualization"
- [77, 16, 75] should be introduced before the conclusion
