Summary:
In this paper, we explore visual characteristics of the emotional images on social media through automatic image generation using a class of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) called deep convolutional generative adversarial networks (DCGANs). Results of experiments present the visual appearance of each emotion, from which we can observe its specific characteristics. Furthermore, based on the trained DCGANs, we investigate the similarity between public image datasets. Our findings are also consistent with sentiment classification across different datasets.
