Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Recently, with the popularization of social network services, the images uploaded by users have been increasing. Users tend to share their feelings by sharing pictures. Thus, it is important to analyze image sentiments for effectively collecting and searching from a large amount of data. Previous advances on image sentiment analysis paid attention to the features of the images from low levels such as shape, color and objects, to high levels such as aesthetics and semantics. Furthermore, with the usage of deep metric learning, researchers considered the spatial distribution of the sentiments. However, the aforementioned features cannot reveal the details such as the correlations among objects of a certain image. Therefore, in this paper, to achieve a performance improvement for the image sentiment analysis, we newly introduce image captioning. Concretely, we extract the multi-level features of the images by our convolutional network. Furthermore, we extract the image captioning features by an employed pre-trained image captioning model. Moreover, we integrate the aforementioned features and predict the image sentiments by using the integrated features. We have confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed method through experiments using an open dataset.
