Abstract
Social Media sites like twitter have billions of people share their opinions day by day as tweets. As tweet is characteristic short and basic way of human emotions. So in this paper we focused on sentiment analysis of Twitter data. Most of Twitter’s existing sentiment analysis solutions basically consider only the textual information of Twitter messages and strives to work well in the face of short and ambiguous Twitter messages. Recent studies show that patterns of spreading feelings on Twitter have close relationships with the polarities of Twitter messages. In this paper focus on how to combine the textual information of Twitter messages and sentiment dissemination models to get a better performance of sentiment analysis in Twitter data. To this end, proposed system first analyses the diffusion of feelings by studying a phenomenon called inversion of feelings and find some interesting properties of the reversal of feelings. Therefore we consider the interrelations between the textual information of Twitter messages and the patterns of diffusion of feelings, and propose random forest machine learning to predict the polarities of the feelings expressed in Twitter messages. As far as we know, this work is the first to use sentiment dissemination models to improve Twitter’s sentiment analysis. Numerous experiments in the real-world dataset show that, compared to state-of-the-art text-based analysis algorithms.
