For this purpose, we employ a multi-stage approach combining corpus-based frequency sampling, direct score annotation and Best-Worst Scaling. In addition to obtaining a gold standard, we analyze the data from our process and we draw conclusions about the optimal sentiment model.}, booktitle = {LREC 2018, Eleventh International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation, May 7-12, 2018, Miyazaki (Japan)}, author = {Rouces, Jacobo and Tahmasebi, Nina and Borin, Lars and Rødven-Eide, Stian}, year = {2018}, publisher = {ELRA}, address = {Miyazaki}, ISBN = {979-10-95546-00-9}, }
