Reply to comment by Oscar_Cunningham in [OC] Inspired by movie barcodes, I made some emotional barcodes for books by Campbell_MG

This is exactly how it works. Each emotion is layered on top of one another with the opacity driven by the likelihood of the emotion from the ML model.

I tried a few different colours but this ended up being the most distinct I could find.

While red and blue mixed won't be helping, the model definitely seems to lean towards fear. If you look at the raw numbers fear seems to show up the most.

Well, it's weird because sadness+anger layered on top of one another will appear as fear.

Maybe, instead of bars, you could use a grid with colored squares and a good resolution, so they don't get mixed.

And opaqueness could indicate intensity. Each grid could be a page, but always scaled to a fixed maximum with so the barcodes are always 2 inches wide by 1 inch tall at 300 dpi (or insert your dimensions here)

How about using black for fear and white for neutral pages. Breaks the colors up

Doesn't that mean that whichever layer is added last will dominate?

I'd quite like to see this as a stream graph, maybe using a rolling average. Is the data available somewhere?
