PyPlutchik

Python visualisation for Plutchik annotated corpora.

PyPlutchik is a module for visualizing the emotional fingerprint of corpora and text annotated with the Plutchik's model of emotions.

Installation

Installation with pip:

pip3 install pyplutchik

Usage

from pyplutchik import plutchik

emotions = {'joy': 0.6,
            'trust': 0.4,
            'fear': 0.1,
            'surprise': 0.7,
            'sadness': 0.1,
            'disgust': 0.5,
            'anger': 0.4,
            'anticipation': 0.6}

Features

PyPlutchik provides a plug-and-play tool for a quantitative representation of Plutchik's emotions in a text or corpus. It is respectful of original colors and spatial displacement of each petal in the Plutchik's wheel. In Pyplutchik users can just pass a dictionary as only parameter, where dictionary's keys must be the 8 basic emotions. Each value must be ∈ [0, 1].

Example 1

Users can represent also the three degrees of intensity for each emotion, just by providing a 3-dimensional iterable as value for each key in the dictionary. The sum of the components of each 3-dimensional val must be between 0 and 1.

Example 2

PyPlutchik also represents primary dyads, secondary dyads, tertiary dyads and opposite emotions. It automatically understands what kind of dyad users want to display from the dictionary's keywords.

Example 3

Integration with matplotlib is easy, so PyPlutchik can be used for also for composed plots.

Full spectrum of emotions

A couple of tricks

One can focus on a subset of emotions, ignoring the remaining ones, passing a list of emotions as value of the parameter highlight_emotions:

Highlight some emotions

Or can hide coordinates, ticks and labels, plotting only the petals of the flower, using the parameters show_coordinates = False and show_ticklabels = False:
