Version of Record

Wechat, a Chinese messaging app, being used by over a billion users monthly. Messaging apps like Wechat use robot systems to predictively generate accurate conversational responses for users. However, users often prefer to convey the emotional expression necessary for human communication in pictorial form with Emoji. In this paper I have used the existing system to generate responses primarily with sentimental analysis, with which the primary text-based reply is fused with emoji stickers so as to be able to convey a more accurate emotional response. This was accomplished through carrying out an emotional analysis of the input text which is then used to select the appropriate emoji stickers to make a response. This analysis also accounts for age and emotional consistency in selecting the most appropriate emoji to convey emotion. As a result, the system is enhanced by facilitating richer communication between users, who are able to convey their actual emotions more swiftly. In this paper, some conversation cases are run using the enhanced system and compared with the existing original system.
