This book was released on 2012 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social media sites are one of the most popular destinations in today's online world. With millions of users visiting social networking sites like Facebook, YouTube, Twitter etc. every day to share social content at their disposal; from simple textual information about what they are doing at any moment of time, to opinions regarding products, people, events, movies to videos and music, these sites have become massive sources of user generated content. In this work we focus on one such social networking site - Twitter, for the task of information extraction and sentiment analysis. This work presents a linguistic framework that first performs syntactic normalization of tweets on top of traditional data cleaning, extracts assertions from each tweet in the form of binary relations, and creates a contextualized knowledge base (KB). We then present a Language Model (LM) based classifier trained on a small set of manually tagged corpus, to perform sentence level sentiment analysis on the collected assertions to eventually create a KB that is backed by sentiment values. We use this approach to implement a contextualized sentiment based yes/no question answering system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the world of social media people are more responsive towards product or certain events that are currently occurring. This response given by the user is in form of raw textual data (Semi Structured Data) in different languages and terms, which contains noise in data as well as critical information that encourage the analyst to discover knowledge and pattern from the dataset available. This is useful for decision making and taking strategic decision for the future market. To discover this unknown information from the linguistic data Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Data Mining techniques are most focused research terms used for sentiment analysis. In the derived approach the analysis on Twitter data to detect sentiment of the people throughout the world using machine learning techniques. Here the data set available for research is from Twitter for world cup Soccer 2014, held in Brazil. During this period, many people had given their opinion, emotion and attitude about the game, promotion, players. By filtering and analyzing the data using natural language processing techniques, and sentiment polarity has been calculated based on the emotion word detected in the user tweets. The data set is normalized to be used by machine learning algorithm and prepared using natural language processing techniques like Word Tokenization, Stemming and lemmatization, POS (Part of speech) Tagger, NER (Name Entity recognition) and parser to extract emotions for the textual data from each tweet. This approach is implemented using Python programming language and Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK), which is openly available for academic as well as for research purpose. Derived algorithm extracts emotional words using WordNet with its POS (Part-of-Speech) for the word in a sentence that has a meaning in current context, and is assigned sentiment polarity using 'SentWordNet' Dictionary or using lexicon based method. The resultant polarity assigned is further analyzed using Naïve Bayes and SVM (support vector Machine) machine learning algorithm and visualized data on WEKA platform. Finally, the goal is to compare both the results of implementation and prove the best approach for sentiment analysis on social media for semi structured data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sentiment analysis and opinion mining is the field of study that analyzes people's opinions, sentiments, evaluations, attitudes, and emotions from written language. It is one of the most active research areas in natural language processing and is also widely studied in data mining, Web mining, and text mining. In fact, this research has spread outside of computer science to the management sciences and social sciences due to its importance to business and society as a whole. The growing importance of sentiment analysis coincides with the growth of social media such as reviews, forum discussions, blogs, micro-blogs, Twitter, and social networks. For the first time in human history, we now have a huge volume of opinionated data recorded in digital form for analysis. Sentiment analysis systems are being applied in almost every business and social domain because opinions are central to almost all human activities and are key influencers of our behaviors. Our beliefs and perceptions of reality, and the choices we make, are largely conditioned on how others see and evaluate the world. For this reason, when we need to make a decision we often seek out the opinions of others. This is true not only for individuals but also for organizations. This book is a comprehensive introductory and survey text. It covers all important topics and the latest developments in the field with over 400 references. It is suitable for students, researchers and practitioners who are interested in social media analysis in general and sentiment analysis in particular. Lecturers can readily use it in class for courses on natural language processing, social media analysis, text mining, and data mining. Lecture slides are also available online.

This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ongoing trend of people using microblogging to express their thoughts on various topics has increased the need for developing computerised techniques for automatic sentiment analysis on texts that do not exceed 200 characters. Twitter is a "micro-blogging" social networking site that has a large and rapidly growing base of users. Twitter's tweets or messages are limited to 140 characters. Because of this limitation, it is more difficult to express sentiment and the classification of the tweets is difficult as well. Sentiment analysis can be done on two types: emotion and opinion. This research completely focuses on sentiment analysis of opinions. These opinions can be divided in three different classes: positive, negative and neutral ( somewhere between positive and negative). The main goal of this study is to build a model that predicts election movement and provide sentiment score from Twitter messages (which can not exceed 140 characters). In this project, the author applies a novel approach that classifies sentiment and emotions of Twitter tweets automatically in positive, negative or neutral classes. For the sentiment, first of all, tweets from twitter were retrieved and converted into the dataset. After pre-processing the data the proposed algorithm named TWEELYZER was applied to the dataset. At the end, the performance of TWEELYZER was measured in terms of accuracy and recall. In this project, all tweets of people regarding to movies, brands, actors and actresses were collected from twitter and then cleaned and analysed according to the proposed algorithm. These tweets were collected using R Studio software. Several processes took place in pre-processing the tweets. After pre-processing the data, using R Studio led to several insights.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microblogs and social media platforms are now considered among the most popular forms of online communication. Through a platform like Twitter, much information reflecting people’s opinions and attitudes is published and shared among users on a daily basis. This has recently brought great opportunities to companies interested in tracking and monitoring the reputation of their brands and businesses, and to policy makers and politicians to support their assessment of public opinions about their policies or political issues. A wide range of approaches to sentiment analysis on social media, have been recently built. Most of these approaches rely mainly on the presence of affect words or syntactic structures that explicitly and unambiguously reflect sentiment. However, these approaches are semantically weak, that is, they do not account for the semantics of words when detecting their sentiment in text. In order to address this problem, the author investigates the role of word semantics in sentiment analysis of microblogs. Specifically, Twitter is used as a case study of microblogging platforms to investigate whether capturing the sentiment of words with respect to their semantics leads to more accurate sentiment analysis models on Twitter. To this end, the author proposes several approaches in this book for extracting and incorporating two types of word semantics for sentiment analysis: contextual semantics (i.e., semantics captured from words’ co-occurrences) and conceptual semantics (i.e., semantics extracted from external knowledge sources). Experiments are conducted with both types of semantics by assessing their impact in three popular sentiment analysis tasks on Twitter; entity-level sentiment analysis, tweet-level sentiment analysis and context-sensitive sentiment lexicon adaptation. The findings from this body of work demonstrate the value of using semantics in sentiment analysis on Twitter. The proposed approaches, which consider word semantics for sentiment analysis at both entity and tweet levels, surpass non-semantic approaches in most evaluation scenarios. This book will be of interest to students, researchers and practitioners in the semantic sentiment analysis field.

Download or read book Prominent Feature Extraction for Sentiment Analysis written by Basant Agarwal and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this monograph is to improve the performance of the sentiment analysis model by incorporating the semantic, syntactic and common-sense knowledge. This book proposes a novel semantic concept extraction approach that uses dependency relations between words to extract the features from the text. Proposed approach combines the semantic and common-sense knowledge for the better understanding of the text. In addition, the book aims to extract prominent features from the unstructured text by eliminating the noisy, irrelevant and redundant features. Readers will also discover a proposed method for efficient dimensionality reduction to alleviate the data sparseness problem being faced by machine learning model. Authors pay attention to the four main findings of the book : -Performance of the sentiment analysis can be improved by reducing the redundancy among the features. Experimental results show that minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance (mRMR) feature selection technique improves the performance of the sentiment analysis by eliminating the redundant features. - Boolean Multinomial Naive Bayes (BMNB) machine learning algorithm with mRMR feature selection technique performs better than Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier for sentiment analysis. - The problem of data sparseness is alleviated by semantic clustering of features, which in turn improves the performance of the sentiment analysis. - Semantic relations among the words in the text have useful cues for sentiment analysis. Common-sense knowledge in form of ConceptNet ontology acquires knowledge, which provides a better understanding of the text that improves the performance of the sentiment analysis.

Download or read book Natural Language Processing for the Semantic Web written by Diana Maynard and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces core natural language processing (NLP) technologies to non-experts in an easily accessible way, as a series of building blocks that lead the user to understand key technologies, why they are required, and how to integrate them into Semantic Web applications. Natural language processing and Semantic Web technologies have different, but complementary roles in data management. Combining these two technologies enables structured and unstructured data to merge seamlessly. Semantic Web technologies aim to convert unstructured data to meaningful representations, which benefit enormously from the use of NLP technologies, thereby enabling applications such as connecting text to Linked Open Data, connecting texts to each other, semantic searching, information visualization, and modeling of user behavior in online networks. The first half of this book describes the basic NLP processing tools: tokenization, part-of-speech tagging, and morphological analysis, in addition to the main tools required for an information extraction system (named entity recognition and relation extraction) which build on these components. The second half of the book explains how Semantic Web and NLP technologies can enhance each other, for example via semantic annotation, ontology linking, and population. These chapters also discuss sentiment analysis, a key component in making sense of textual data, and the difficulties of performing NLP on social media, as well as some proposed solutions. The book finishes by investigating some applications of these tools, focusing on semantic search and visualization, modeling user behavior, and an outlook on the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Document in the subject Computer Sciences - Artificial Intelligence, , language: English, abstract: In today scenario there is abrupt usage of microblogging sites such as Twitter for sharing of feelings and emotions towards any current hot topic, any product, services, or any event. Such opinionated data needs to be leveraged effectively to get valuable insight from that data. This research work focused on designing a comprehensive feature-based Twitter Sentiment Analysis (TSA) framework using the supervised machine learning approach with integrated sophisticated negation handling approach and knowledge-based Tweet Normalization System (TNS). We generated three real-time twitter datasets using search operators such as #Demonetization, #Lockdown, and #9pm9minutes and also used one publically available benchmark dataset SemEval-2013 to assess the viability of our comprehensive feature-based twitter sentiment analysis system on tweets. We leveraged varieties of features such as lexicon-based features, pos-based, morphological, ngrams, negation, and cluster-based features to ascertain which classifier works well with which feature group. We employed three state-of-the-art classifiers including Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree Classifier (DTC), and Naive Bayesian (NB) for our twitter sentiment analysis framework. We observed SVM to be the best performing classifier across all the twitter datasets except #9pm9minutes (DTC turned out to be the best for this dataset). Moreover, our SVM model trained on the SemEval-2013 training dataset outperformed the winning team NRC Canada of SemEval- 2013 task 2 in terms of macro-averaged F1 score, averaged on positive and negative classes only. Though state-of-the-art twitter sentiment analysis systems reported significant performance, it is still challenging to deal with some critical aspects such as negation and tweet normalization.
