Sentiment analysis (SA) is an emerging field in text mining. It is the
process of computationally identifying and categorizing opinions expressed in a
piece of text over different social media platforms. Social media plays an
essential role in knowing the customer mindset towards a product, services, and
the latest market trends. Most organizations depend on the customer's response
and feedback to upgrade their offered products and services. SA or opinion
mining seems to be a promising research area for various domains. It plays a
vital role in analyzing big data generated daily in structured and unstructured
formats over the internet. This survey paper defines sentiment and its recent
research and development in different domains, including voice, images, videos,
and text. The challenges and opportunities of sentiment analysis are also
discussed in the paper.
