Popis: This paper proposes a method that automatically creates a sentiment lexicon in a new language using a sentiment lexicon in a resource–rich language with only a bilingual dictionary. We resolve some of the difficulties in selecting appropriate senses when translating lexicon, and present a framework that sequentially applies an iterative link analysis algorithm to enhance the quality of lexicons of both the source and target languages. The experimental results have empirically shown to improve the sentiment lexicon in the source language as well as create a good quality lexicon in the new language.
