Movie Review Classification Based on a Multiple Classifier

A multiple classifier for the review document classification task is described, which consists of three classifiers based on SVMs, ME and score calculation and applies two voting methods and SVMs to the integration process of single classifiers.

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a method to classify movie review documents into positive or negative opinions. There are several approaches to classify documents. The previous studies, however, used only a single classifier for the classification task. We describe a multiple classifier for the review document classification task. The method consists of three classifiers based on SVMs, ME and score calculation. We apply two voting methods and SVMs to the integration process of single classifiers. The integrated methods improved the accuracy as compared with the three single classifiers. The experimental results show the effectiveness of our method.
