The goal was to for a given textual dialogue, i.e. a user utterance along with two turns of context, identify the emotion of user utterance as one of the emotion classes: Happy, Sad, Angry or Others. Our system: ConSSED is a configurable combination of semantic and sentiment neural models. The official task submission achieved a micro-average F1 score of 75.31 which placed us 16th out of 165 participating systems.
