Extracting Semantic Orientations of Words using Spin Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a method for extracting semantic orientations of words: desirable or undesirable. Regarding semantic orientations as spins of electrons, we use the mean field approximation to compute the approximate probability function of the system instead of the intractable actual probability function. We also propose a criterion for parameter selection on the basis of magnetization. Given only a small number of seed words, the proposed method extracts semantic orientations with high accuracy in the experiments on English lexicon. The result is comparable to the best value ever reported.

Extracting Domain-Dependent Semantic Orientations of Latent Variables for Sentiment Classification
Sentiment analysis of weblogs is a challenging problem. Most previous work utilized semantic orientations of words or phrases to classify sentiments of weblogs. The problem with this approach is that semantic orientations of words or phrases are investigated without considering the domain of weblogs. Weblogs contain the author’s various opinions about multifaceted topics. Therefore, we have to ...
متن کاملExtracting Semantic Orientations of Phrases from Dictionary
We propose a method for extracting semantic orientations of phrases (pairs of an adjective and a noun): positive, negative, or neutral. Given an adjective, the semantic orientation classification of phrases can be reduced to the classification of words. We construct a lexical network by connecting similar/related words. In the network, each node has one of the three orientation values and the n...
متن کاملPreliminary Semantic Analysis of Political Blogs
In this paper, we present a series of semantic analyses of words in political blogs in the setting of categorization of two opposite political orientations: liberal vs. conservative. We classify nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs into semantic categories by using the General Inquirer dictionary. Then distributions of these categories and correlations among them are examined both within and be...
متن کاملLatent Variable Models for Semantic Orientations of Phrases
We propose models for semantic orientations of phrases as well as classification methods based on the models. Although each phrase consists of multiple words, the semantic orientation of the phrase is not a mere sum of the orientations of the component words. Some words can invert the orientation. In order to capture the property of such phrases, we introduce latent variables into the models. T...
متن کاملNamed Entity Recognition in Persian Text using Deep Learning
Named entities recognition is a fundamental task in the field of natural language processing. It is also known as a subset of information extraction. The process of recognizing named entities aims at finding proper nouns in the text and classifying them into predetermined classes such as names of people, organizations, and places. In this paper, we propose a named entity recognizer which benefi...
