Words are one of the most essential elements of expressing sentiments in context although they are not the only ones. Also, syntactic relationships between words, morphology, punctuation, and linguistic phenomena are influential. Merely considering the concept of words as isolated phenomena causes a lot of mistakes in sentiment analysis systems. So far, a large amount of research has been conducted on generating sentiment dictionaries containing only sentiment words. A number of these dictionaries have addressed the role of combinations of sentiment words, negators, and intensifiers, while almost none of them considered the heterogeneous effect of the occurrence of multiple linguistic phenomena in sentiment compounds. Regarding the weaknesses of the existing sentiment dictionaries, in addressing the heterogeneous effect of the occurrence of multiple intensifiers, this research presents a sentiment dictionary based on the analysis of sentiment compounds including sentiment words, negators, and intensifiers by considering the multiple intensifiers relative to the sentiment word and assigning a location-based coefficient to the intensifier, which increases the covered sentiment phrase in the dictionary, and enhanced efficiency of proposed dictionary-based sentiment analysis methods up to 7% compared to the latest methods.

The development of mobile internet has led to a massive amount of data being generated from mobile devices daily, which has become a source for analyzing human behavior and trends in public sentiment. In this paper, we build a system called MoSa (Mobile Sentiment analysis) to analyze this data. In this system, sentiment analysis is used to analyze news comments on the THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) event from Toutiao by employing algorithms to calculate the sentiment value of the comment. This paper is based on HowNet; after the comparison of different sentiment dictionaries, we discover that the method proposed in this paper, which use a mixed sentiment dictionary, has a higher accuracy rate in its analysis of comment sentiment tendency. We then statistically analyze the relevant attributes of the comments and their sentiment values and discover that the standard deviation of the comments’ sentiment value can quickly reflect sentiment changes among the public. Besides that, we also derive some special models from the data that can reflect some specific characteristics. We find that the intrinsic characteristics of situational awareness have implicit symmetry. By using our system, people can obtain some practical results to guide interaction design in applications including mobile Internet, social networks, and blockchain based crowdsourcing.

Sentiment analysis plays an important role in understanding individual opinions expressed in websites such as social media and product review sites. The common approaches to sentiment analysis use the sentiments carried by words that express opinions and are based on either supervised or unsupervised learning techniques. The unsupervised learning approach builds a word-sentiment dictionary, but it requires lengthy time periods and high costs to build a reliable dictionary. The supervised learning approach uses machine learning models to learn the sentiment scores of words; however, training a classifier model requires large amounts of labelled text data to achieve a good performance. In this article, we propose a semisupervised approach that performs well despite having only small amounts of labelled data available for training. The proposed method builds a base sentiment dictionary from a small training dataset using a lasso-based ensemble model with minimal human effort. The scores of words not in the training dataset are estimated using an adaptive instance-based learning model. In a pretrained word2vec model space, the sentiment values of the words in the dictionary are propagated to the words that did not exist in the training dataset. Through two experiments, we demonstrate that the performance of the proposed method is comparable to that of supervised learning models trained on large datasets.

Sarcasm is a form of communication where the individual states the opposite of what is implied. Therefore, detecting a sarcastic tone is somewhat complicated due to its ambiguous nature. On the other hand, identification of sarcasm is vital to various natural language processing tasks such as sentiment analysis and text summarisation. However, research on sarcasm detection in Persian is very limited. This paper investigated the sarcasm detection technique on Persian tweets by combining deep learning-based and machine learning-based approaches. Four sets of features that cover different types of sarcasm were proposed, namely deep polarity, sentiment, part of speech, and punctuation features. These features were utilised to classify the tweets as sarcastic and nonsarcastic. In this study, the deep polarity feature was proposed by conducting a sentiment analysis using deep neural network architecture. In addition, to extract the sentiment feature, a Persian sentiment dictionary was developed, which consisted of four sentiment categories. The study also used a new Persian proverb dictionary in the preparation step to enhance the accuracy of the proposed model. The performance of the model is analysed using several standard machine learning algorithms. The results of the experiment showed that the method outperformed the baseline method and reached an accuracy of 80.82%. The study also examined the importance of each proposed feature set and evaluated its added value to the classification.

In this paper, we propose an effective model for aspect-based sentiment analysis. First, we combined a sentiment dictionary and syntactic dependency rules to extract reliable word pairs (sentiment — aspect). Then, thanks to ontology, we grouped those aspects and determined the sentiment polarity of each. When we conducted experiments on real reviews, the system showed positive results.


With the rapid climb of web page from social media, such studies as online opinion mining or sentiment analysis of text have started receiving attention from government, industry, and academic sectors. In recent years, sentiment analysis has not only emerged under knowledge fusion within the big data era, but has also become a well-liked research topic within the area of AI and machine learning. This study used the Military life PTT board of Taiwan’s largest online forum because the source of its experimental data. the aim of this study was to construct a sentiment analysis framework and processes for social media so as to propose a self-developed military sentiment dictionary for improving sentiment classification and analyze the performance of various deep learning models with various parameter calibration combinations. The experimental results show that the accuracy and F1-measure of the model that mixes existing sentiment dictionaries and therefore the self-developed military sentiment dictionary are better than the results from using existing sentiment dictionaries only. Furthermore, the prediction model trained using the activation function, Tanh, and when the amount of Bi-LSTM network layers is 2, the accuracy and F1-measure have a good better performance for sentiment classification.
