Sentiment analysis becomes one of the most active research hotspots in the field of natural language processing tasks in recent years. However, the inability to fully and effectively use emotional information is a problem in present deep learning models. A single Chinese character has different meanings in different words, and the character embeddings are combined with the word embeddings to extract more precise meaning information. In this paper, a single Chinese character and word are used as input units to train. Based on BLSTM, the attention mechanism based on vocabulary semantics in food field is introduced to realize distance-related sequence semantic feature extraction. CNN is used to realize semantic sentiment classification of sequence semantic features. Therefore, a model based on multi-neural network for sentiment information extraction and analysis is proposed. Experiments show that the model has excellent characteristics in sentiment analysis and obtains high accuracy and F value.

Sentiment Analysis is the Natural Language Processing (NLP) is the active research area due to its vast application like stock market prediction, product re-views etc. The sentiment analysis in the regional languages are required for the film industries to increase their profit. Many existing methods has been applied on the sentiment analysis in the regional languages to increases the performance and still, it lags due in efficiency. In this research, the Bi-directional Recurrent Neural Network (BRNN) is applied to increase the performance of the sentiment analysis in the regional languages. The BRNN method has the advantages of rep-resenting the high and poor resources sentences in the common space and sentiment is analyzed based on the similarity measure. The proposed method is evaluated on the twitter data and compared this with the existing methods such as Random forest and Support Vector Machine (SVM). The proposed BRNN has the overall accuracy of 50.32%, while existing method of SVM has the overall accuracy of 38.73%.

Word embeddings have been successfully applied in many natural language processing tasks due to its their effectiveness. However, the state-of-the-art algorithms for learning word representations from large amounts of text documents ignore emotional information, which is a significant research problem that must be addressed. To solve the above problem, we propose an emotional word embedding (EWE) model for sentiment analysis in this paper. This method first applies pre-trained word vectors to represent document features using two different linear weighting methods. Then, the resulting document vectors are input to a classification model and used to train a text sentiment classifier, which is based on a neural network. In this way, the emotional polarity of the text is propagated into the word vectors. The experimental results on three kinds of real-world data sets demonstrate that the proposed EWE model achieves superior performances on text sentiment prediction, text similarity calculation, and word emotional expression tasks compared to other state-of-the-art models.

The real-time and dissemination characteristics of network information make net-mediated public opinion become more and more important food safety early warning resources, but the data of petabyte (PB) scale growth also bring great difficulties to the research and judgment of network public opinion, especially how to extract the event role of network public opinion from these data and analyze the sentiment tendency of public opinion comment. First, this article takes the public opinion of food safety network as the research point, and a BLSTM-CRF model for automatically marking the role of event is proposed by combining BLSTM and conditional random field organically. Second, the Attention mechanism based on vocabulary in the field of food safety is introduced, the distance-related sequence semantic features are extracted by BLSTM, and the emotional classification of sequence semantic features is realized by using CNN. A kind of Att-BLSTM-CNN model for the analysis of public opinion and emotional tendency in the field of food safety is proposed. Finally, based on the time series, this article combines the role extraction of food safety events and the analysis of emotional tendency and constructs a net-mediated public opinion early warning model in the field of food safety according to the heat of the event and the emotional intensity of the public to food safety public opinion events.

Sentiment analysis is a natural language processing (NLP) task of identifying orextracting the sentiment content of a text unit. This task has become an active research topic since the early 2000s. During the two last editions of the VLSP workshop series, the shared task on Sentiment Analysis (SA) for Vietnamese has been organized in order to provide an objective evaluation measurement about the performance (quality) of sentiment analysis tools, and encouragethe development of Vietnamese sentiment analysis systems, as well as to provide benchmark datasets for this task. The rst campaign in 2016 only focused on the sentiment polarity classication, with a dataset containing reviews of electronic products. The second campaign in 2018 addressed the problem of Aspect Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) for Vietnamese, by providing two datasets containing reviews in restaurant and hotel domains. These data are accessible for research purpose via the VLSP website vlsp.org.vn/resources. This paper describes the built datasets as well as the evaluation results of the systems participating to these campaigns.

The dependence on Internet in our daily life is ever-growing, which provides opportunity to discover valuable and subjective information using advanced techniques such as natural language processing and artificial intelligence. In this chapter, the research focus is a convolutional neural network for three-class (positive, neutral, and negative) cross-domain sentiment analysis. The model is enhanced in two-fold. First, a similarity label method facilitates the management between the source and target domains to generate more labelled data. Second, term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) and latent semantic indexing (LSI) are employed to compute the similarity between source and target domains. Performance evaluation is conducted using three datasets, beauty reviews, toys reviews, and phone reviews. The proposed method enhances the accuracy by 4.3-7.6% and reduces the training time by 50%. The limitations of the research work have been discussed, which serve as the rationales of future research directions.

The advent of the Internet has caused a significant growth in the number of opinions expressed about products or services on e-commerce websites. Aspect category detection, which is one of the challenging subtasks of aspect-based sentiment analysis, deals with categorizing a given review sentence into a set of predefined categories. Most of the research efforts in this field are devoted to English language reviews, while there are a large number of reviews in other languages that are left unexplored. In this paper, we propose a multilingual method to perform aspect category detection on reviews in different languages, which makes use of a deep convolutional neural network with multilingual word embeddings. To the best of our knowledge, our method is the first attempt at performing aspect category detection on multiple languages simultaneously. Empirical results on the multilingual dataset provided by SemEval workshop demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method1.

Sentiment analysis is one of the new absorbing parts appeared in natural language processing with the emergence of community sites on the web. Taking advantage of the amount of information now available, research and industry have been seeking ways to automatically analyze the sentiments expressed in texts. The challenge for this task is the human language ambiguity, and also the lack of labeled data. In order to solve this issue, sentiment analysis and deep learning have been merged as deep learning models are effective due to their automatic learning capability. In this paper, we provide a comparative study on IMDB movie review dataset, we compare word embeddings and further deep learning models on sentiment analysis and give broad empirical outcomes for those keen on taking advantage of deep learning for sentiment analysis in real-world settings.

In the era of information overload, text summarization has become a focus of attention in a number of diverse fields such as, question answering systems, intelligence analysis, news recommendation systems, search results in web search engines, and so on. A good document representation is the key point in any successful summarizer. Learning this representation becomes a very active research in natural language processing field (NLP). Traditional approaches mostly fail to deliver a good representation. Word embedding has proved an excellent performance in learning the representation. In this paper, a modified BM25 with Word Embeddings are used to build the sentence vectors from word vectors. The entire document is represented as a set of sentence vectors. Then, the similarity between every pair of sentence vectors is computed. After that, TextRank, a graph-based model, is used to rank the sentences. The summary is generated by picking the top-ranked sentences according to the compression rate. Two well-known datasets, DUC2002 and DUC2004, are used to evaluate the models. The experimental results show that the proposed models perform comprehensively better compared to the state-of-the-art methods.

With the spurt of online user-generated contents on web, sentiment analysis has become a very active research issue in data mining and natural language processing. As the most important indicator of sentiment, sentiment words which convey positive and negative polarity are quite instrumental for sentiment analysis. However, most of the existing methods for identifying polarity of sentiment words only consider the positive and negative polarity by the Cantor set, and no attention is paid to the fuzziness of the polarity intensity of sentiment words. In order to improve the performance, we propose a fuzzy computing model to identify the polarity of Chinese sentiment words in this paper. There are three major contributions in this paper. Firstly, we propose a method to compute polarity intensity of sentiment morphemes and sentiment words. Secondly, we construct a fuzzy sentiment classifier and propose two different methods to compute the parameter of the fuzzy classifier. Thirdly, we conduct extensive experiments on four sentiment words datasets and three review datasets, and the experimental results indicate that our model performs better than the state-of-the-art methods.

Big languages such as English and Finnish have many natural language processing (NLP) resources and models, but this is not the case for low-resourced and endangered languages as such resources are so scarce despite the great advantages they would provide for the language communities. The most common types of resources available for low-resourced and endangered languages are translation dictionaries and universal dependencies. In this paper, we present a method for constructing word embeddings for endangered languages using existing word embeddings of different resource-rich languages and the translation dictionaries of resource-poor languages. Thereafter, the embeddings are fine-tuned using the sentences in the universal dependencies and aligned to match the semantic spaces of the big languages; resulting in cross-lingual embeddings. The endangered languages we work with here are Erzya, Moksha, Komi-Zyrian and Skolt Sami. Furthermore, we build a universal sentiment analysis model for all the languages that are part of this study, whether endangered or not, by utilizing cross-lingual word embeddings. The evaluation conducted shows that our word embeddings for endangered languages are well-aligned with the resource-rich languages, and they are suitable for training task-specific models as demonstrated by our sentiment analysis models which achieved high accuracies. All our cross-lingual word embeddings and sentiment analysis models will be released openly via an easy-to-use Python library.
