Combining Static and Dynamic Features for Multivariate Sequence Classification
Model precision in a classification task is highly dependent on the feature
space that is used to train the model. Moreover, whether the features are
sequential or static will dictate which classification method can be applied as
most of the machine learning algorithms are designed to deal with either one or
another type of data. In real-life scenarios, however, it is often the case
that both static and dynamic features are present, or can be extracted from the
data. In this work, we demonstrate how generative models such as Hidden Markov
Models (HMM) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) artificial neural networks can
be used to extract temporal information from the dynamic data. We explore how
the extracted information can be combined with the static features in order to
improve the classification performance. We evaluate the existing techniques and
suggest a hybrid approach, which outperforms other methods on several public
datasets.Comment: Presented at IEEE DSAA 201
A Comprehensive Overview and Comparative Analysis on Deep Learning Models: CNN, RNN, LSTM, GRU
Deep learning (DL) has emerged as a powerful subset of machine learning (ML)
and artificial intelligence (AI), outperforming traditional ML methods,
especially in handling unstructured and large datasets. Its impact spans across
various domains, including speech recognition, healthcare, autonomous vehicles,
cybersecurity, predictive analytics, and more. However, the complexity and
dynamic nature of real-world problems present challenges in designing effective
deep learning models. Consequently, several deep learning models have been
developed to address different problems and applications. In this article, we
conduct a comprehensive survey of various deep learning models, including
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs),
Generative Models, Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL), and Deep Transfer
Learning. We examine the structure, applications, benefits, and limitations of
each model. Furthermore, we perform an analysis using three publicly available
datasets: IMDB, ARAS, and Fruit-360. We compare the performance of six renowned
deep learning models: CNN, Simple RNN, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM),
Bidirectional LSTM, Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), and Bidirectional GRU.Comment: 16 pages, 29 figure
Sentiment Analysis
Recent advances in machine learning have led to computer systems that are human-like in behaviour. Sentiment analysis, the automatic determination of emotions in text, is allowing us to capitalize on substantial previously unattainable opportunities in commerce, public health, government policy, social sciences, and art. Further, analysis of emotions in text, from news to social media posts, is improving our understanding of not just how people convey emotions through language but also how emotions shape our behaviour. This article presents a sweeping overview of sentiment analysis research that includes: the origins of the field, the rich landscape of tasks, challenges, a survey of the methods and resources used, and applications. We also discuss discuss how, without careful fore-thought, sentiment analysis has the potential for harmful outcomes. We outline the latest lines of research in pursuit of fairness in sentiment analysis
Latent sentiment model for weakly-supervised cross-lingual sentiment classification
In this paper, we present a novel weakly-supervised method for crosslingual sentiment analysis. In specific, we propose a latent sentiment model (LSM) based on latent Dirichlet allocation where sentiment labels are considered as topics. Prior information extracted from English sentiment lexicons through machine translation are incorporated into LSM model learning, where preferences on expectations of sentiment labels of those lexicon words are expressed using generalized expectation criteria. An efficient parameter estimation procedure using variational Bayes is presented. Experimental results on the Chinese product reviews show that the weakly-supervised LSM model performs comparably to supervised classifiers such as Support vector Machines with an average of 81% accuracy achieved over a total of 5484 review documents. Moreover, starting with a generic sentiment lexicon, the LSM model is able to extract highly domainspecific polarity words from text
Capturing user sentiments for online Indian movie reviews.
Sentiment analysis and opinion mining are emerging areas of research for analysing Web data and capturing users’ sentiments. This research aims to present sentiment analysis of an Indian movie review corpus using natural language processing and various machine learning classifiers. In this paper, a comparative study between three machine learning classifiers (Bayesian, naïve Bayesian and support vector machine [SVM]) was performed. All the classifiers were trained on the words/features of the corpus extracted, using five different feature selection algorithms (Chi-square, info-gain, gain ratio, one-R and relief-F [RF] attributes), and a comparative study was performed between them. The classifiers and feature selection approaches were evaluated using different metrics (F-value, false-positive [FP] rate and training time).The results of this study show that, for the maximum number of features, the RF feature selection approach was found to be the best, with better F-values, a low FP rate and less time needed to train the classifiers, whereas for the least number of features, one-R was better than RF. When the evaluation was performed for machine learning classifiers, SVM was found to be superior, although the Bayesian classifier was comparable with SVM. This is a novel research where Indian review data were collected and then a classification model for sentiment polarity (positive/negative) was constructed.N
Adversarial Training in Affective Computing and Sentiment Analysis: Recent Advances and Perspectives
Over the past few years, adversarial training has become an extremely active
research topic and has been successfully applied to various Artificial
Intelligence (AI) domains. As a potentially crucial technique for the

computing and sentiment analysis. Various representative adversarial training
algorithms are explained and discussed accordingly, aimed at tackling diverse

of potential future research directions. We expect that this overview will help
facilitate the development of adversarial training for affective computing and
sentiment analysis in both the academic and industrial communities
