Abstract
The conventional methodology for sentiment analysis within large language models (LLMs) has predominantly drawn upon human emotional frameworks, incorporating physiological cues that are inherently absent in text-only communication. This research proposes a paradigm shift towards an emotionallyagnostic approach to sentiment analysis in LLMs, which concentrates on purely textual expressions of sentiment, circumventing the confounding effects of human physiological responses. The aim is to refine sentiment analysis algorithms to discern and generate emotionally congruent responses strictly from text-based cues. This study presents a comprehensive framework for an emotionally-agnostic sentiment analysis model that systematically excludes physiological indicators whilst maintaining the analytical depth required for accurate emotion detection. A novel suite of metrics tailored to this approach is developed, facilitating a nuanced interpretation of sentiment within text data, which is paramount for enhancing user interaction across a spectrum of text mining applications, including recommendation systems and interactive AI characters. The research undertakes a critical comparative analysis, juxtaposing the newly proposed model with traditional sentiment analysis techniques, to evaluate efficacy enhancements and to substantiate its application potential. Further, the investigation delves into the short-term memory capabilities of LLMs, exploring the implications for character AI roleplaying interfaces and their ability to recall and respond to user input within a text-driven emotional framework. Findings indicate that this emotionally-agnostic sentiment analysis approach not only simplifies the sentiment assessment process within LLMs but also opens avenues for a more precise and contextually appropriate emotional response generation. This abstracted model, devoid of human physiological constraints, represents a significant advancement in text mining, fostering improved interactions and contributing to the evolution of LLMs as adept analytical tools in various domains where emotional intelligence is crucial.
