During the last few years, RNN models have been extensively used and they have proven to be better for sequence and text data. RNNs have achieved state-of-the-art performance levels in several applications such as text classification, sequence to sequence modelling and time series forecasting. In this article we will review different Machine Learning and Deep Learning based approaches for text data and look at the results obtained from these methods. This work also explores the use of transfer learning in NLP and how it affects the performance of models on a specific application of sentiment analysis.

Background: With the tremendous increase in the use of social networking sites for sharing the emotions, views, preferences etc. a huge volume of data and text is available on the internet, there comes the need for understanding the text and analysing the data to determine the exact intent behind the same for a greater good. This process of understanding the text and data involves loads of analytical methods, several phases and multiple techniques. Efficient use of these techniques is important for an effective and relevant understanding of the text/data. This analysis can in turn be very helpful in ecommerce for targeting audience, social media monitoring for anticipating the foul elements from society and take proactive actions to avoid unethical and illegal activities, business analytics, market positioning etc. Method: The goal is to understand the basic steps involved in analysing the text data which can be helpful in determining sentiments behind them. This review provides detailed description of steps involved in sentiment analysis with the recent research done. Patents related to sentiment analysis and classification are reviewed to throw some light in the work done related to the field. Results: Sentiment analysis determines the polarity behind the text data/review. This analysis helps in increasing the business revenue, e-health, or determining the behaviour of a person. Conclusion: This study helps in understanding the basic steps involved in natural language understanding. At each step there are multiple techniques that can be applied on data. Different classifiers provide variable accuracy depending upon the data set and classification technique used.

AbstractIn literature, the machine learning-based studies of sentiment analysis are usually supervised learning which must have pre-labeled datasets to be large enough in certain domains. Obviously, this task is tedious, expensive and time-consuming to build, and hard to handle unseen data. This paper has approached semi-supervised learning for Vietnamese sentiment analysis which has limited datasets. We have summarized many preprocessing techniques which were performed to clean and normalize data, negation handling, intensification handling to improve the performances. Moreover, data augmentation techniques, which generate new data from the original data to enrich training data without user intervention, have also been presented. In experiments, we have performed various aspects and obtained competitive results which may motivate the next propositions.

Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA), a fine-grained task of opinion mining, which aims to extract sentiment of specific target from text, is an important task in many real-world applications, especially in the legal field. Therefore, in this paper, we study the problem of limitation of labeled training data required and ignorance of in-domain knowledge representation for End-to-End Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (E2E-ABSA) in legal field. We proposed a new method under deep learning framework, named Semi-ETEKGs, which applied E2E framework using knowledge graph (KG) embedding in legal field after data augmentation (DA). Specifically, we pre-trained the BERT embedding and in-domain KG embedding for unlabeled data and labeled data with case elements after DA, and then we put two embeddings into the E2E framework to classify the polarity of target-entity. Finally, we built a case-related dataset based on a popular benchmark for ABSA to prove the efficiency of Semi-ETEKGs, and experiments on case-related dataset from microblog comments show that our proposed model outperforms the other compared methods significantly.

Abstract Aspect level sentiment analysis belongs to fine-grained sentiment analysis, w hich has caused extensive research in academic circles in recent years. For this task, th e recurrent neural network (RNN) model is usually used for feature extraction, but the model cannot effectively obtain the structural information of the text. Recent studies h ave begun to use the graph convolutional network (GCN) to model the syntactic depen dency tree of the text to solve this problem. For short text data, the text information is not enough to accurately determine the emotional polarity of the aspect words, and the knowledge graph is not effectively used as external knowledge that can enrich the sem antic information. In order to solve the above problems, this paper proposes a graph co nvolutional neural network (GCN) model that can process syntactic information, know ledge graphs and text semantic information. The model works on the “syntax-knowled ge” graph to extract syntactic information and common sense information at the same t ime. Compared with the latest model, the model in this paper can effectively improve t he accuracy of aspect-level sentiment classification on two datasets.


Vector representations for language have been shown to be useful in a number of Natural Language Processing tasks. In this paper, we aim to investigate the effectiveness of word vector representations for the problem of Sentiment Analysis. In particular, we target three sub-tasks namely sentiment words extraction, polarity of sentiment words detection, and text sentiment prediction. We investigate the effectiveness of vector representations over different text data and evaluate the quality of domain-dependent vectors. Vector representations has been used to compute various vector-based features and conduct systematically experiments to demonstrate their effectiveness. Using simple vector based features can achieve better results for text sentiment analysis of APP.
