While COVID-19 is ravaging the lives of millions of people across the globe, a second pandemic 'black fungus' has surfaced robbing people of their lives especially people who are recovering from coronavirus. Again, the public perceptions regarding such pandemics can be investigated through sentiment analysis of social media data. Thus the objective of this study is to analyze public perceptions through sentiment analysis regarding black fungus during the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. To attain the objective, first, a Support Vector Machine model, with an average AUC of 82.75\%, was developed to classify user sentiments in terms of anger, fear, joy, and sad. Next, this Support Vector Machine is used to supervise the class labels of the public tweets (n = 6477) related to COVID-19 and black fungus. As outcome, this study found that public perceptions belong to sad (n = 2370, 36.59 \%), followed by joy ( n = 2095, 32.34\%), fear ( n = 1914, 29.55 \%) and anger ( n = 98, 1.51\%) towards black fungus during COVID-19 pandemic. This study also investigated public perceptions of some critical concerns (e.g., education, lockdown, hospital, oxygen, quarantine, and vaccine) and it was found that public perceptions of these issues varied. For example, for the most part, people exhibited fear in social media about education, hospital, vaccine while some people expressed joy about education, hospital, vaccine, and oxygen.

<p class="Abstrak">Dewasa ini, media sosial berkembang pesat di internet, salah satu yang banyak digemari adalah Twitter. Berbagai topik ramai diperbincangkan di Twitter mulai dari ekonomi, politik, sosial, budaya, hukum dan lain-lain. Salah satu topik yang ramai diperbincangkan di Twitter adalah terkait isu pemindahan ibu kota Indonesia. Namun dibalik hal tersebut terdapat kontroversi dari  pihak yang merasa  pro dan kontra, masing-masing memiiki sudut pandang yang berbeda.  Hal ini menyebabkan munculnya fenomena perdebatan khususnya di Twitter yang sebenarnya menunjukkan perhatian kolektif mengenai wacana publik tersebut. Analisis sentimen adalah proses mengekstraksi, memahami dan mengolah data berupa teks yang tidak terstruktur secara otomatis guna mendapatkan informasi sentimen yang terdapat pada sebuah kalimat pendapat atau opini. Dalam penerapan analisis sentimen menggunakan metode <em>machine learning</em> terdapat beberapa metode yang sering digunakan. Dalam penelitian ini diusulkan metode <em>Support Vector Machine</em> (SVM) untuk diterapkan pada <em>tweets</em> topik pemindahan ibu kota Indonesia untuk tujuan klasifikasi kelas sentimen pada media sosial <em>twitter</em>. Teknis klasifikasi  dilakukan dengan cara mengklasifikasikan menjadi 2 kelas yakni positif dan negatif. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian yang dilakukan terhadap <em>tweets</em> sentimen pemindahan ibu kota dari media sosial twitter sebanyak 1.236 <em>tweets</em> (404 positif dan 832 negatif) menggunakan SVM diperoleh akurasi =96,68%, <em>precision=</em>95.82%, <em>recall</em>=94.04% dan AUC = 0,979.</p><p class="Abstrak"> </p><p class="Abstrak"><em><strong>Abstract</strong></em></p><p class="Abstrak"><em><em>Today, social media is growing fast on the internet<span lang="EN-GB">.</span><span lang="EN-GB">On</span>e of the most popular<span lang="EN-GB"> social media</span> is Twitter.

The needs of the community for freight forwarding are now starting to increase with the marketplace. User opinion about freight forwarding services is currently carried out by the public through many things one of them is social media Twitter. By sentiment analysis, the tendency of an opinion will be able to be seen whether it has a positive or negative tendency. The methods that can be applied to sentiment analysis are the Naive Bayes Algorithm and Support Vector Machine (SVM). This research will implement the two algorithms that are optimized using the PSO algorithms in sentiment analysis. Testing will be done by setting parameters on the PSO in each classifier algorithm. The results of the research that have been done can produce an increase in the accreditation of 15.11% on the optimization of the PSO-based Naive Bayes algorithm. Improved accuracy on the PSO-based SVM algorithm worth 1.74% in the sigmoid kernel.

Social media writing content growing make a lot of new words that appear on Twitter in the form of words and abbreviations that appear so that sentiment analysis is increasingly difficult to get high accuracy of textual data on Twitter social media. In this study, the authors conducted research on sentiment analysis of the pairs of candidates for President and Vice President of Indonesia in the 2019 Elections. To obtain higher accuracy results and accommodate the problem of textual data development on Twitter, the authors conducted a combination of methods to conduct the sentiment analysis with unsupervised and supervised methods. namely Lexicon Based. This study used Twitter data in October 2018 using the search keywords with the names of each pair of candidates for President and Vice President of the 2019 Elections totaling 800 datasets. From the study with 800 datasets the best accuracy was obtained with a value of 92.5% with 80% training data composition and 20% testing data with a Precision value in each class between 85.7% - 97.2% and Recall value for each class among 78, 2% - 93.5%. With the Lexicon Based method as a labeling dataset, the process of labeling the Support Vector Machine dataset is no longer done manually but is processed by the Lexicon Based method and the dictionary on the lexicon can be added along with the development of data content on Twitter social media.

<span>Sentiment analysis is directed at identifying people's opinions, beliefs, views and emotions in the context of the entities and attributes that appear in text. The presence of sarcasm, however, can significantly hamper sentiment analysis. In this paper a sentiment classification framework is presented that incorporates sarcasm detection. The framework was evaluated using a non-linear Support Vector Machine and Malay social media data. The results obtained demonstrated that the proposed sarcasm detection process could successfully detect the presence of sarcasm in that better sentiment classification performance was recorded. A best average F-measure score of 0.905 was recorded using the framework; a significantly better result than when sentiment classification was performed without sarcasm detection.</span>

Sentiment Analysis has paved routes for opinion analysis of masses over unrestricted territorial limits. With the advent and growth of social media like Twitter, Facebook, WhatsApp, Snapchat in today’s world, stakeholders and the public often takes to expressing their opinion on them and drawing conclusions. While these social media data are extremely informative and well connected, the major challenge lies in incorporating efficient Text Classification strategies which not only overcomes the unstructured and humongous nature of data but also generates correct polarity of opinions (i.e. positive, negative, and neutral). This paper is a thorough effort to provide a brief study about various approaches to SA including Machine Learning, Lexicon Based, and Automatic Approaches. The paper also highlights the comparison of positive, negative, and neutral tweets of the Sputnik V, Moderna, and Covaxin vaccines used for preventive and emergency use of COVID-19 disease.
