Building a Sentiment Corpus of Tweets in Brazilian Portuguese
The large amount of data available in social media, forums and websites
motivates researches in several areas of Natural Language Processing, such as
sentiment analysis. The popularity of the area due to its subjective and
semantic characteristics motivates research on novel methods and approaches for
classification. Hence, there is a high demand for datasets on different domains
and different languages. This paper introduces TweetSentBR, a sentiment corpora
for Brazilian Portuguese manually annotated with 15.000 sentences on TV show
domain. The sentences were labeled in three classes (positive, neutral and
negative) by seven annotators, following literature guidelines for ensuring
reliability on the annotation. We also ran baseline experiments on polarity
classification using three machine learning methods, reaching 80.99% on
F-Measure and 82.06% on accuracy in binary classification, and 59.85% F-Measure
and 64.62% on accuracy on three point classification.Comment: Accepted for publication in 11th International Conference on Language

General Purpose Textual Sentiment Analysis and Emotion Detection Tools
Textual sentiment analysis and emotion detection consists in retrieving the
sentiment or emotion carried by a text or document. This task can be useful in
many domains: opinion mining, prediction, feedbacks, etc. However, building a
general purpose tool for doing sentiment analysis and emotion detection raises
a number of issues, theoretical issues like the dependence to the domain or to
the language but also pratical issues like the emotion representation for
interoperability. In this paper we present our sentiment/emotion analysis
tools, the way we propose to circumvent the di culties and the applications
they are used for.Comment: Workshop on Emotion and Computing (2013
Automatic domain ontology extraction for context-sensitive opinion mining
Automated analysis of the sentiments presented in online consumer feedbacks can facilitate both organizations’ business strategy development and individual consumers’ comparison shopping. Nevertheless, existing opinion mining methods either adopt a context-free sentiment classification approach or rely on a large number of manually annotated training examples to perform context sensitive sentiment classification. Guided by the design science research methodology, we illustrate the design, development, and evaluation of a novel fuzzy domain ontology based contextsensitive opinion mining system. Our novel ontology extraction mechanism underpinned by a variant of Kullback-Leibler divergence can automatically acquire contextual sentiment knowledge across various product domains to improve the sentiment analysis processes. Evaluated based on a benchmark dataset and real consumer reviews collected from Amazon.com, our system shows remarkable performance improvement over the context-free baseline
