主权项 1. A computer-implemented method comprising using one or more computers to perform operations comprising: selecting first text from a text field in proximity to a current position of an input cursor in the text field, the first text comprising at least one of a word, a sentence fragment, a sentence, a phrase, or a passage that precedes or follows the current position of the input cursor; performing sentiment analysis to determine a first sentiment of the first text in the text field, the first sentiment relating to a user's attitude with respect to a topic described in the first text; identifying one or more candidate emoticons wherein each candidate emoticon is associated with a respective score indicating relevance to the first text and the first sentiment based on, at least, historical user selections of emoticons for insertion in proximity to respective second text having a respective second sentiment; providing one or more candidate emoticons having respective highest scores for user selection; and receiving user selection of one or more of the provided emoticons and inserting the selected emoticons into the text field at the current position of the input cursor, wherein performing sentiment analysis comprises locating and analyzing subjective information in the first text using at least one of statistics, computational linguistics, and natural language processing.
