Dictionary Methods
the scores attached to words must closely align with how
the words are used in a particular context.
Dictionaries should be used with substantial caution, or at least coupled with explicit
validation.
The consequence of domain specificity and lack of validation is that most analyses based on
dictionaries are built on shaky foundations.
Supervised Learning Methods

supervised learning methods are much easier to validate, with
clear statistics that summarize model performance.
