Page last edited on 2017-07-07
GIFGIF is a project from the MIT Media Lab which aims at understanding the emotional content of animated GIF images. Visitors on the web site are faced with two images and a question of the form: Which image better expresses happiness (pride / fear / …)? In total, 17 different emotions are covered.
A dataset of pairwise comparison outcomes was graciously provided by the GIFGIF team. It consists of 2.7+ million pairwise comparisons over 6170 animated GIFS, and consists of all the data until January 21st, 2015.
