Resumo Este artigo se propõe a ampliar a metodologia perspectivista (MALINI, 2016) de análise de redes sociais, incorporando um procedimento de análise dos sentimentos das mensagens postadas em redes de controvérsias políticas, em particular, em dois momentos distintos da campanha pelo impeachment da presidenta Dilma. O primeiro é o período da eclosão das manifestações antipetistas, no dia 15 de março de 2015. O segundo, dia 27 de agosto de 2016, quando a presidenta é deposta do cargo. Realiza uma revisão sobre a análise de sentimentos em megadados do Twitter e constrói uma metodologia que combina classificação humana de textos com aplicação de algoritmos genéticos de análise de textos, no intuito de analisar sentimentos genéricos (baseado na polarização positivo/negativos) e sentimento específicos, baseados nas seguintes emoções: Alegria, Raiva, Medo, Antecipação, Desgosto, Tristeza, Surpresa e Confiança. Conclui demonstrando que os movimentos pró e anti-Dilma são marcados pelo predomínio de sentimento de raiva, medo e ansiedade, confirmando a hipótese que a trolagem ofensiva demarca o estilo da indignação propagada em redes políticas no Twitter brasileiro.  Palavras-Chave: Análise de Sentimento; Big Data; Redes; Política; Twitter.Abstract This article aims to expand the perspectivist methodology (Malini, 2016) of social networks analysis, incorporating a proceeding of sentiment analysis of the messages posted in networks of political controversies, in particular, in two distinct moments of the campaign for the impeachment of President Dilma. The first is the period of the outbreak of PT protests, on March 15, 2015. The second, on August 27, 2016, when the president is deposed. We will be doing a theoretical review about sentiment analysis in Big Data on Twitter to build a methodology that combines human classification of texts with the application of genetic algorithms of text analysis and to analyze generic sentiments (based on positive / negative polarization) and specific sentiment, based on emotions like Joy, Anger, Fear, Anticipation, Disgust, Sadness, Surprise and Trust. It concludes by demonstrating that pro and anti-Dilma movements are marked by a predominance of anger, fear and anxiety, confirming the hypothesis that an offensive trolling demarcates the style of indignation propagated by political networks in Brazilian Twitter.Keywords: Sentiment Analysis; Big Data; Social Network; Politics; Twitter.

The purpose of this article is to study one of the methods of social networks analysis – text sentiment analysis. Today, social media has become a big data base that social network analysis is used for various purposes – from setting up targeted advertising for a cosmetics store to preventing riots at the state level. There are various methods for analyzing social networks such as graph method, text sentiment analysis, audio, and video object analysis. Among them, sentiment analysis is widely used for political, social, consumer research, and also for cybersecurity. Since the analysis of the sentiment of the text involves the analysis of the emotional opinions expressed in the text, the first step is to define the term opinion. An opinion can be simple, that is, a positive, negative or neutral emotion towards a particular object or its aspect. Comparison is also an opinion, but devoid of emotional connotation. To work with simple opinions, the first task of text sentiment analysis is to classify the text. There are three levels of classifications: classification at the text level, at the level of a sentence, and at the aspect level of the object. After classifying the text at the desired level, the next task is to extract structured data from unstructured information. The problem can be solved using the five-tuple method. One of the important elements of a tuple is the aspect in which an opinion is usually expressed. Next, aspect-based sentiment analysis is applied, which involves identifying aspects of the desired object and assessing the polarity of mood for each aspect. This task is divided into two sub-tasks such as aspect extraction and aspect classification. Sentiment analysis has limitations such as the definition of sarcasm and difficulty of working with abbreviated words.

Now-a-days, it is very common that the customers share their thoughts about any product, brand and their experience in social media. The analysts collect these reviews and process it, to extract meaningful information about the product. The beauty of social media is, it’s involved in all the domains. So the analysts got reviews from different social media and platforms for almost all kind of thing. The Sentiment Analysis is applied to predict outcomes for getting useful information, for ex.; like predict the blockbuster for a movie, rating for any new launches and many more. This type of prediction is really helpful for the customer to buy any goods or take any services in this competitive world. This paper is focused on e-commerce website reviews which are normally in text form with some special characters and some symbols (emojis). Each word in this text set got some meaning in terms of context, emotion and prior experience. These characteristics contribute to some of the features of text data for prediction. The objective of this paper is to compile existing research works on text analysis and emotion based analysis. The open issues and challenges of document based sentiment analysis are also discussed. The paper concluded with proposing a new approach of multi class classification. Ternary classification for classes positive, negative and neutral is suggested primarily for product based text and emoji reviews on Twitter social media.

Social Networks have become an important part of people’s life as they share their day-to-day happenings, portray their opinions on various topics or find out information related to their queries. Due to the overwhelming volume of tweets generated on a daily basis, it is not possible to read all the tweets and differentiate the tweets based on the views or the attitude they portray only. The primary objective of sentiment analysis is to find out the attitude/emotion/opinion/sentiment that is present in the material provided. Commonly, the tweets can be clustered on the basis of them being positive or negative i.e. being in favour of the topic or being against the topic. The clustering and indexing of the tweets help in the organisation, searching, and summarisation of task. Twitter data are considered as Big Data and the information contained within the tweets is unstructured and if utilised properly can be very useful for educational and governance purposes. In this paper, a method is presented which clusters and then indexes the tweets on the basis of the sentiments and emoticons that are present in the tweet.

Over the past few years, the novel appeal and increasing popularity of social networks as a medium for users to express their opinions and views have created an accumulation of a massive amount of data. This evolving mountain of data is commonly termed Big Data. Accordingly, one area in which the application of new techniques in data mining research has significant potential to achieve more precise classification of hidden knowledge in Big Data is sentiment analysis (aka optimal mining). A hybrid approach using Naïve Bayes and Random Forest on mining Twitter datasets is presented here as an extension of previous work. Briefly, relevant data sets are collected from Twitter using Twitter API; then, use of the hybrid methodology is illustrated and evaluated against one with only Naïve Bayes classifier. Results show better accuracy and efficiency in the sentiment classification for the hybrid approach.

This chapter aimed to consider of approaches to big data (social network content) utilization for understanding social behavior in the conflict zones, and analysis of dynamics of illegal armed groups. The analysis directed to identify of structure of illegal armed groups, and detection of underage militants. The probabilistic and stochastic methods of analysis and classification of number, composition, and dynamics of illegal armed groups in active conflict areas are proposed. Data of armed conflict in Donbas (Eastern Ukraine) in the period 2014-2015 is used for analysis. The numerical distribution of age, gender composition, origin, social status, and nationality of militants among illegal armed groups has been calculated. Conclusions on the applicability of described method in criminological practice, as well as about the possibilities of interpretation of obtaining results in the context of study of terrorism are proposed.

Besides its NP-completeness, the strict constraints of subgraph isomorphism are making it impractical for graph pattern matching (GPM) in the context of big data. As a result, relaxed GPM models have emerged as they yield interesting results in a polynomial time. However, massive graphs generated by mostly social networks require a distributed storing and processing of the data over multiple machines, thus, requiring GPM to be revised by adopting new paradigms of big graphs processing, e.g., Think-Like-A-Vertex and its derivatives. This article discusses and proposes a classification of distributed GPM approaches with a narrow focus on the relaxed models.

Sentiment analysis (SA) is the study and analysis of sentiments, appraisals and impressions by people about entities, person, happening, topics and services. SA uses text analysis techniques and natural language processing methods to locate and extract information from big data. As most of the people are networked themselves through social websites, they use to express their sentiments through these websites.These sentiments are proved fruitful to an individual, business, government for making decisions. The impressions posted on different available sources are being used by organization to know the market mood about the services they are providing. Analyzing huge moods expressed with different features, style have raised challenge for users. This paper focuses on understanding the fundamentals of sentiment analysis, the techniques used for sentiment extraction and analysis. These techniques are then compared for accuracy, advantages and limitations. Based on the accuracy for expexted approach, we may use the suitable technique.
