Stanford Politeness API

[Cristian Danescu-Niculescu-Mizil]

Announcing the availability of the Stanford Politeness API, a Python implementation of a politeness classifier for requests.

This is based on the work described in:

"A computational approach to politeness with application to social factors."
Cristian Danescu-Niculescu-Mizil, Moritz Sudhof, Dan Jurafsky, Jure Leskovec, Christopher Potts
ACL, 2013.

Using this API you can:

- classify requests according to politeness (using a pre-trained model which is included)

- train new models on new data

- experiment with new politeness features
