Highlights
-
For many natural language processing systems, such as review summarization and public media analysis, it is often important to understand the sentiment being expressed in very short texts, such as Tweets.
-
This new algorithm accurately identifies the sentiments behind comments even if they are not explicitly expressed.
-
For example, if feedback received just says that something is small, it could be good (in the case of a cellphone, for instance) or bad (a room in a hotel).
-
The algorithm can also accurately identify moods and feelings (bored, stressed, angry, excited) in short messages or comments.
-
Successful demonstration of accuracy using Amazon product reviews.
