Unsupervised sentiment classification of English movie reviews using automatic selection of positive and negative sentiment items
We consider the problem of classifying documents not by topic, but by overall sentiment. Previous approaches to sentiment classification have favored domain-specific, supervised machine learning…
CS 224 N Final Project Boost up ! Sentiment Categorization with Machine Learning Techniques
We address the problem of categorizing documents by overall sentiment into two classes (i.e. positive or negative) and into multiple classes (e.g. one to five stars). We apply machine learning…
Sentiment Classification using Machine Learning Techniques
Large amount of information are available online on web.The discussion forum, review sites, blogs are some of the opinion rich resources where review or posted articles is their sentiment, or overall…
Sentiment Classification for Microblog by Machine Learning
TLDR
A new model is introduced in which efficient approaches to select features, calculate weights, train samples and evaluate classifier are introduced, based on Bayesian algorithm and machine learning that is one of the most popular methods for sentiment classification.
A Comparative Study on Linguistic Feature Selection in Sentiment Polarity Classification
TLDR
A comparative study with different single kind linguistic features and the combinations of these features finds that the classic topic-based classifier(Naive Bayes and Support Vector Machine) do not perform as well on sentiment polarity classification and that with some combination of different linguistic features the classification accuracy can be boosted a lot.
An Empirical Study for Chinese Sentiment Classification Based on Machine Learning Techniques
TLDR
The experimental results suggest that using binary occurrence to weight the features is more suitable when used Naïve Bayes, but when used the support vector machine, tfidf-c can get the best performance.
Sentiment analysis using Support Vector Machine
TLDR
Experimental results that applied Support Vector Machine (SVM) on benchmark datasets to train a sentiment classifier reveal that by using Chi-Square feature selection may provide significant improvement on classification accuracy.

TLDR
This paper has explored sentiment orientation considering the positive and negative sentiments using film user reviews using Naive Bayes' classifier and results indicate that the Linear SVM has provided the best accuracy which is followed by the Synthetic words approach.
An Empirical Study On Sentiment Polarity Classification Of Book Reviews
TLDR
This paper has adopted a machine learning based approach where classifiers are trained over a self-collected corpus of book reviews, annotated with sentimental categories, and shows Naive Bayes has shown best results.
Semi-supervised Learning for Sentiment Classification
With the growing need of identifying opinions and sentiments automatically from online text data, sentiment classification tasks have received considerable attention recently. One can treat sentiment…

A Sentimental Education: Sentiment Analysis Using Subjectivity Summarization Based on Minimum Cuts
TLDR
A novel machine-learning method is proposed that applies text-categorization techniques to just the subjective portions of the document, which greatly facilitates incorporation of cross-sentence contextual constraints.
Text Categorization with Support Vector Machines: Learning with Many Relevant Features

Using Maximum Entropy for Text Classification
TLDR
This paper uses maximum entropy techniques for text classification by estimating the conditional distribution of the class variable given the document by comparing accuracy to naive Bayes and showing that maximum entropy is sometimes significantly better, but also sometimes worse.
A comparison of event models for naive bayes text classification
TLDR
It is found that the multi-variate Bernoulli performs well with small vocabulary sizes, but that the multinomial performs usually performs even better at larger vocabulary sizes--providing on average a 27% reduction in error over the multi -variateBernoulli model at any vocabulary size.

Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down? Semantic Orientation Applied to Unsupervised Classification of Reviews
TLDR
A simple unsupervised learning algorithm for classifying reviews as recommended (thumbs up) or not recommended (Thumbs down) if the average semantic orientation of its phrases is positive.
Naive (Bayes) at Forty: The Independence Assumption in Information Retrieval
TLDR
The naive Bayes classifier, currently experiencing a renaissance in machine learning, has long been a core technique in information retrieval, and some of the variations used for text retrieval and classification are reviewed.
Identifying Collocations for Recognizing Opinions
TLDR
Promising results are shown for a straightforward method of identifying collocational clues of subjectivity, as well as evidence of the usefulness of these clues for recognizing opinionated documents.
You’re Not From ’Round Here, Are You? Naive Bayes Detection of Non-Native Utterances
TLDR
It is shown that naive Bayes classification can be used to identify non-native utterances of English, and that classification of errorful speech recognizer hypotheses is more accurate than classification of perfect transcriptions.
A Simple Approach to Building Ensembles of Naive Bayesian Classifiers for Word Sense Disambiguation
TLDR
A corpus-based approach to word sense disambiguation that builds an ensemble of Naive Bayesian classifiers, each of which is based on lexical features that represent co-occurring words in varying sized windows of context achieves accuracy rivaling the best previously published results.
