Abstract
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 resear
Keywords
Computer Science
Mining and summarizing customer reviews
7,714 Citations2004Minqing Hu, Bing Liu
This research aims to mine and to summarize all the customer reviews of a product, and proposes several novel techniques to perform these tasks.
Thumbs up?
6,987 Citations2002Bo Pang, Lillian Lee +1 more
This work considers the problem of classifying documents not by topic, but by overall sentiment, e.g., determining whether a review is positive or negative, and concludes by examining factors that make the sentiment classification problem more challenging.
Computational LinguisticsLexicon-Based Methods for Sentiment Analysis
3,255 Citations2011Maite Taboada, Julian Brooke +3 more
The Semantic Orientation CALculator (SO-CAL) uses dictionaries of words annotated with their semantic orientation (polarity and strength), and incorporates intensification and negation, and is applied to the polarity classification task.
Determining the sentiment of opinions
1,485 Citations2004Soo-Min Kim, Eduard Hovy
A system that, given a topic, automatically finds the people who hold opinions about that topic and the sentiment of each opinion and another module for determining word sentiment and another for combining sentiments within a sentence is presented.
A holistic lexicon-based approach to opinion mining
1,388 Citations2008Xiaowen Ding, Bing Liu +1 more
This paper proposes a holistic lexicon-based approach to solving the problem of determining the semantic orientations (positive, negative or neutral) of opinions expressed on product features in reviews by exploiting external evidences and linguistic conventions of natural language expressions.
Computational LinguisticsOpinion Word Expansion and Target Extraction through Double Propagation
1,100 Citations2011Guang Qiu, Bing Liu +2 more
This article study two important problems, namely, opinion lexicon expansion and opinion target extraction, and proposes a method based on bootstrapping that outperforms these existing methods significantly.
Joint sentiment/topic model for sentiment analysis
972 Citations2009Chenghua Lin, Yulan He
A novel probabilistic modeling framework based on Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA), called joint sentiment/topic model (JST), which detects sentiment and topic simultaneously from text is proposed, which is fully unsupervised.
Movie review mining and summarization
909 Citations2006Zhuang Li, Jing Feng +1 more
A multi-knowledge based approach is proposed, which integrates WordNet, statistical analysis and movie knowledge, and the experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed approach in movie review mining and summarization.
Predicting the semantic orientation of adjectives
819 Citations1997Vasileios Hatzivassiloglou, Kathleen McKeown
Topic sentiment mixture
813 Citations2007Qiaozhu Mei, Xu Ling +3 more
The proposed Topic-Sentiment Mixture (TSM) model can reveal the latent topical facets in a Weblog collection, the subtopics in the results of an ad hoc query, and their associated sentiments and could also provide general sentiment models that are applicable to any ad hoc topics.
Modeling online reviews with multi-grain topic models
792 Citations2008Ivan Titov, Ryan McDonald
This paper presents a novel framework for extracting ratable aspects of objects from online user reviews and argues that multi-grain models are more appropriate for this task since standard models tend to produce topics that correspond to global properties of objects rather than aspects of an object that tend to be rated by a user.
Cross-domain sentiment classification via spectral feature alignment
789 Citations2010Sinno Jialin Pan, Xiaochuan Ni +3 more
This work develops a general solution to sentiment classification when the authors do not have any labels in a target domain but have some labeled data in a different domain, regarded as source domain and proposes a spectral feature alignment (SFA) algorithm to align domain-specific words from different domains into unified clusters, with the help of domain-independent words as a bridge.
Emotions from text
785 Citations2005Cecilia Ovesdotter Alm, Dan Roth +1 more
This paper explores the text-based emotion prediction problem empirically, using supervised machine learning with the SNoW learning architecture to classify the emotional affinity of sentences in the narrative domain of children's fairy tales, for subsequent usage in appropriate expressive rendering of text-to-speech synthesis.
Aspect and sentiment unification model for online review analysis
772 Citations2011Yohan Jo, Alice Oh
This paper proposes Sentence-LDA and extends it to Aspect and Sentiment Unification Model (ASUM), which incorporates aspect and sentiment together to model sentiments toward different aspects and shows that ASUM outperforms other generative models and comes close to supervised classification methods.
Computational LinguisticsLearning Subjective Language
743 Citations2004Janyce Wiebe, Theresa Wilson +3 more
This article shows that the density of subjectivity clues in the surrounding context strongly affects how likely it is that a word is subjective, and it provides the results of an annotation study assessing the subjectivity of sentences with high-density features.
Latent aspect rating analysis on review text data
659 Citations2010Hongning Wang, Yue Lu +1 more
Empirical experiments show that the proposed latent rating regression model can effectively solve the problem of LARA, and that the detailed analysis of opinions at the level of topical aspects enabled by the proposed model can support a wide range of application tasks, such as aspect opinion summarization, entity ranking based on aspect ratings, and analysis of reviewers rating behavior.
Co-training for cross-lingual sentiment classification
499 Citations2009Xiaojun Wan
A cotraining approach is proposed to making use of unlabeled Chinese data for cross-lingual sentiment classification, which leverages an available English corpus for Chinese sentiment classification by using the English corpus as training data.
Fully automatic lexicon expansion for domain-oriented sentiment analysis
411 Citations2006Hiroshi Kanayama, Tetsuya Nasukawa
This paper proposes an unsupervised lexicon building method for the detection of polar clauses, which convey positive or negative aspects in a specific domain, and its method is robust for corpora in diverse domains and for the size of the initial lexicon.
<i>Retracted December 5, 2011:</i> A novel lexicalized HMM-based learning framework for web opinion mining
329 Citations2009Wei Jin, Hung Hay Ho
Sentiment analysis of conditional sentences
242 Citations2009Ramanathan Narayanan, Bing Liu +1 more
This paper first presents a linguistic analysis of conditional sentences, and then builds some supervised learning models to determine if sentiments expressed on different topics in a conditional sentence are positive, negative or neutral.
Adapting a polarity lexicon using integer linear programming for domain-specific sentiment classification
186 Citations2009Yejin Choi, Claire Cardie
A novel method based on integer linear programming that can adapt an existing lexicon into a new one to reflect the characteristics of the data more directly, and Experimental results show that the lexicon adaptation technique improves the performance of fine-grained polarity classification.
Building emotion lexicon from weblog corpora
164 Citations2007Changhua Yang, Kevin Lin +1 more
A collocation model is proposed to learn emotion lexicons from weblog articles and emotion classification at sentence level is experimented by using the mined lexicons to demonstrate their usefulness.
