Abstract: Textual Emotion Mining (TEM) tackles the problem of analyzing the text in terms of the emotions, it expresses or evokes. It focuses on a series of approaches, methods, and tools to help understand human emotions. The understanding would play a pivotal role in developing relevant systems to meet human needs. This work has drawn significant interest from researchers worldwide. This article carries out a science mapping analysis of TEM literature indexed in the Web of Science (WoS), to provide quantitative and qualitative insight into the TEM research. To explain the evolution of mainstream contents, various bibliometric indicators and metrics are used which identify annual publication counts, authorship patterns, performance of countries/regions, and institutes. To further supplement this study, various types of network analysis are also performed like co-citation analysis, co-occurrence analysis, bibliographic coupling, and co-authorship pattern analysis. Additionally, a fairly comprehensive manual analysis of top-cited and most-used journal and proceeding papers is also conducted to understand the growth and evolution of this domain. As per the authors’ knowledge, this manuscript provides the first thorough investigation of TEM's research status through a bibliometric examination of scientific publications. Expedient results are recorded that will allow TEM researchers to uncover the growth pattern, seek collaborations, enhance the selection of research topics, and gain a holistic view of the aggregate progress in the domain. The presented facts and analysis of TEM will help the researchers’ fraternity to carry out the future study.
