Serendio: Simple and Practical lexicon based approach to Sentiment Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the system developed by the Serendio team for the SemEval-2013 Task 2 competition (Task A). We use a lexicon based approach for discovering sentiments. Our lexicon is built from the Serendio taxonomy. The Serendio taxonomy consists of positive, negative, negation, stop words and phrases. A typical tweet contains word variations, emoticons, hashtags etc. We use preprocessing steps such as stemming, emoticon detection and normalization, exaggerated word shortening and hashtag detection. After the preprocessing, the lexicon-based system classifies the tweets as positive or negative based on the contextual sentiment orientation of the words. Our system yields an F-score of 0.8004 on the test dataset.

This paper describes a simple and principled approach to automatically construct sentiment lexicons using distant supervision. We induce the sentiment association scores for the lexicon items from a model trained on a weakly supervised corpora. Our empirical findings show that features extracted from such a machine-learned lexicon outperform models using manual or other automatically constructe...
