Abstract The research on text emotion analysis has made substantial progesses in recent years. However, the emotion annotated corpus is less developed, especially the ones on micro-blog text. To support the analysis on the emotion expression in Chinese micro-blog text and the evaluation of the emotion classification algorithms, an emotion annotated corpus on Chinese micro-blog text is designed and constructed. Based on the observation and analysis on the emotion expression in micro-blog text, a set of emotion annotation specification is developed. Following this specification, the emotion annotation on micro-blog level is firstly performed. The annotated information includes whether the micro-blog text has emotion expression and the emotion categories corresponding to the micro-blog with emotion expressions. Next, the sentence-level annotation is conducted. Meanwhile, the annotation on whether the sentence has emotion expression and the emotion categories, the strength corresponding to each emotion category is annotated. Currently, this emotion annotated corpus consists of 14000 micro-blogs, totaling 45431 sentences. This corpus was used as the standard resource in the NLP&CC2013 Chinese micro-blog emotion analysis evaluation, facilitating the research on emotion analysis to a great extent.
