Completed a feasibility study on sentiment analysis of images in social media, funded by a research grant from [https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/innovate-uk the UK government's technology strategy board]. Starting from the Yfcc100m and YLI datasets comprised of 100 million images, labels, and metadata, I investigated both novel and existing methods and developed a commercial product, which has since evolved to be based on convolutional neural nets.
