Abstract: Arabic is one of the most spoken languages across the globe. However, there are fewer studies concerning Sentiment Analysis (SA) in Arabic. In recent years, the detected sentiments and emotions expressed in tweets have received significant interest. The substantial role played by the Arab region in international politics and the global economy has urged the need to examine the sentiments and emotions in the Arabic language. Two common models are available: Machine Learning and lexicon-based approaches to address emotion classification problems. With this motivation, the current research article develops a Teaching and Learning Optimization with Machine Learning Based Emotion Recognition and Classification (TLBOML-ERC) model for Sentiment Analysis on tweets made in the Arabic language. The presented TLBOML-ERC model focuses on recognising emotions and sentiments expressed in Arabic tweets. To attain this, the proposed TLBOML-ERC model initially carries out data pre-processing and a Continuous Bag Of Words (CBOW)-based word embedding process. In addition, Denoising Autoencoder (DAE) model is also exploited to categorise different emotions expressed in Arabic tweets. To improve the efficacy of the DAE model, the Teaching and Learning-based Optimization (TLBO) algorithm is utilized to optimize the parameters. The proposed TLBOML-ERC method was experimentally validated with the help of an Arabic tweets dataset. The obtained results show the promising performance of the proposed TLBOML-ERC model on Arabic emotion classification.

1  Introduction

Arabic is one of the six official languages of the United Nations. As an official language in 27 nations, Arabic is spoken by nearly 422 million people worldwide [1]. Arabic has rich morphology and is highly complex since every word carries significant meaning. Since space is one of the delimited tokens, the terms in the Arabic language expose numerous morphological prospects such as agglutination, derivation, and inflection [2]. Unlike Latin languages, Arabic is written from right to left and can be distinguished by the absence of lower or upper case. Its alphabet has 28 letters, of which 25 are consonants and 3 are vowels [3,4]. However, the Arabic script employs diacritical marks as short vowels and vocal parts. This can be positioned either below or above the letters to ensure the right pronunciation and convey clear meaning for the words [5]. Most Arabic texts are written without shorter vowels. So, proficient speakers do not require diacritical marks to understand the presented text [6]. But, it is frequently utilized in books written for Arabic learners and children. The lack of diacritical marks in most textbooks brings lexical ambiguity issues that challenge the computational mechanisms [7,8].

There is a shortage of studies or linguistics research in Arabic, especially social emotion analysis. Further, no structured methods exist for extracting and classifying emotions in Arabic tweets. If available, such mechanisms can be applied to improve customer service management, E-learning applications, product quality, detection techniques for psychologists to identify terrorist conduct, and so on [9,10]. The emotion analysis process allows the analysis and classification of more complex emotions. Emotion is a part of the nervous system function and is associated with different mental states, such as sadness, joy, or annoyance. Emotion analysis can identify whether the content under study has emotions and can categorize the emotions under appropriate emotion categories [11]. The data for sentiment analysis is available on Twitter in the form of tweets. This Twitter data has text in several languages, whereas users post around 4.00 billion tweets daily. The tweets posted on Twitter exhibit the feelings and emotions of the users in distinct languages. Several challenges are associated with the emotional analysis of Twitter data since the tweets contain several social shortcuts, grammatical mistakes, multimedia content, misspellings, and slang [12]. Various authors have investigated emotions in English-language tweets. However, no single author has categorized the emotions exhibited in Arabic language tweets since the language has intricate difficulties. Many sentiment analysis studies on Arabic tweets merely categorized a sentiment as either positive or negative [13]. As mentioned, there is a lack of resources and studies in Arabic language social emotion analysis. In contrast, such studies or mechanisms need the hour to be applied in different fields [14], for instance, support psychiatrists in understanding terrorist conduct, improving E-learning applications, enhancing customer service and product quality, etc.

The current study develops a Teaching and Learning Optimization with Machine Learning Based Emotion Recognition and Classification (TLBOML-ERC) model on Arabic Twitter data. The presented TLBOML-ERC model focuses on recognising emotions and sentiments expressed in Arabic tweets. To attain this, the proposed TLBOML-ERC model initially carries out data pre-processing and Continuous Bag Of Words (CBOW)-based word embedding. The Denoising Autoencoder (DAE) model is exploited for emotion recognition, which categorizes the emotions found in Arabic tweets. To improve the efficacy of the DAE model, the Teaching and Learning Based Optimization (TLBO) algorithm is utilized for parameter optimization. The experimental analysis of the proposed TLBOML-ERC model was conducted using the Arabic tweets dataset.

Baali et al. [15] proposed a classification method for emotions found in Arabic tweets. In this technique, Deep Convolution Neural Network (DCNN) was trained on top of a training word vector for sentence classification, especially upon the dataset. The outcomes of the proposed method were compared with three other Machine Learning (ML) techniques, such as Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Naïve Bayes (NB). The structure of the deep learning algorithm was an end-to-end network with sentence, word, and document vectorization steps. Khalil et al. [16] developed a new multi-layer Bidirectional Long Short Term Memory (BiLSTM) that was trained on top of pre-trained word-embedded vectors. This method obtained excellent performance improvement and was also related to other techniques for similar tasks, such as SVM, Random Forest (RF), and Fully Convolution Neural Network (FCNN). In the study conducted earlier [17], empirical research was executed on the progression of language methods from conventional Term Frequency–Inverse Document Frequency (TF–IDF) to highly-sophisticated word embedding word2vec and finally to the existing pre-trained language method, i.e., Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT). It observed and examined how the performance can be increased to bring a change in language methods. Additionally, various BERT techniques were inspected for the Arabic language earlier.

Poorna et al. [18] developed a speech emotion recognition mechanism for the Arabic population. A speech database elicited emotions such as surprise, anger, disgust, happiness, neutrality, and sadness was developed from 14 non-native yet efficient speakers of the language. Spectral, cepstral, and prosodic features were derived after preprocessing the data. Then, the features were exposed to single-stage classification using supervised learning techniques. SVM and Extreme Learning Machine (ELM). Al-Hagery et al. [19] intended to achieve optimal performance in emotion classification upon the tweets made in Arabic. In this background, it is evident that various research investigations have been conducted earlier to investigate the impact of feature extraction methods and the N-gram method on the performances of three supervised ML techniques, such as SVM, NB, and Logistic Regression (LR).

3  The Proposed Model

In the current study, a new TLBOML-ERC model is proposed for the recognition of emotions and sentiments found in Arabic tweets. The TLBOML-ERC model initially carries out data pre-processing and the CBOW-based word embedding process to attain this. For emotion recognition, TLBO is exploited along with the DAE model that identifies and categorizes the emotions found in Arabic tweets. Fig. 1 showcases the block diagram of the TLBOML-ERC approach.

Figure 1: Block diagram of TLBOML-ERC approach

3.1 Data Pre-processing

The original Arabic tweets from training and testing datasets are tokenized. After removing the white spaces, the punctuation marks are preserved as individual words (”.,?!:;()[]#@’). It is worth declaring that the pre-processing approaches not present in the current study model have normalized the Arabic characters, whereas diacritics, punctuations, and repetitive characters are eliminated.

3.2 Continuous BoW Model

CBOW approach employs Bag-of-Word models in which every word shares a prediction layer. Furthermore, the nonlinear hidden state is detached to reduce the computational time. CBOW employs the word from history and the future, whereas log-a linear classifier is applied, which is generally used in classifying middle (current) words [20]. Moreover, CBOW utilizes context-continuous distributed demonstration. Consider {wt−c, ⋯ wt−2, wt−1, wt+1, wt+2, …, wt+c}, CBOW method works to maximise Eq. (1).

1|V|∑t=1|v|log[p(wt|wt+1,wt+2,…,wt+cwt−c,…wt−2,wt−1,)](1)

In Eq. (1), |v| indicates the corpus’s number of words or vocabularies, while c denotes the context size. The context size is decided based on the sliding window size. When the sliding window size is 9, it corresponds to the presence of 9 words, implying that the value of c is 4. So, 4 words beforehand and afterwards should be considered to forecast certain words. After forecasting the word, the window must slide to predict the following word.

3.3 DAE-Based Emotion Classification

For emotion recognition, the DAE model is exploited, which identifies and categorizes the emotions found in Arabic tweets. Autoencoder (AE) is a Fully Connected (FC) layer of the unsupervised ML process, implying the Backpropagation (BP) model [21]. AE comprises an input layer, several hidden states, and a single output layer. The resultant of the neural network is denoted in Eq. (2) by permitting bold letters to indicate the vector.

y=hθ(x),(2)

whereas x=[x1x2⋯xn]T is the input vector, hθ denotes the full forward propagation function, and θ denotes the set of biases and weights that should be studied through the network during the training stage. The learning procedure can be performed by setting the target value at the output, which is similar to the input value  (y=x):

hθ(x)=x.(3)

As stated earlier, AE operates as an unsupervised learning method, i.e., backpropagation. Unsupervised learning refers to the training stage in which the basic features are merely needed without labelling. At the same time, backpropagation is the fault in the foretold resultant. In contrast, the target resultant propagates back from the resultant to every neuron in the network to update the weights based on a certain learning rate (α):

θi+1=θi+△θi,(4)

whereas i refers to the index of trained epochs and △θi denotes the upgraded weight that can be computed as follows.

Δθi=− α( ∂E∂θi)(5)

Here, E denotes the cost function. In such cases, Mean Square Error (MSE) is employed as an error measure, calculated as given below.

E=1N∑m(ym−xm)2,(6)

Here, N denotes the training set size, xm corresponds to the m-th input vector, and ym refers to the m-th output vector. AE has one more type, i.e., Denoising AE (DAE), which has a similar structure to AEs. But, the principle behind DAEs can rebuild data from the input of the corrupted dataset. It trains DAE by corrupting the datasets and giving them to Neural Network (NN). During the training stage, the target value is fixed for the output in the case of the actual dataset, whereas the input remains in the corrupted form of the dataset.

target output of hθ(x~)=x,(7)

Here, x~ denotes the corrupted pack of input neurons and hθ(x~) indicates the output of DAE. DAE diminishes the cost function (x, hθ(x~)), whereas E denotes a certain error measure. DAE should undo the corruption instead of replicating the input at the output and capturing the essential feature of the trained dataset. This training allows the DAE to recover the correlation amongst input neurons via the original dataset. It is to be noted that the neuron count necessitated in AE hidden state is lower compared to the count of input or output neurons. Though this is not a common constraint in AE, other AE models have the count of neurons in their hidden stage, which should be higher than the input or output neurons, such as Sparse AE.

3.4 Parameter Tuning Using TLBO Algorithm

To improve the efficacy of the DAE model, the TLBO algorithm is utilized for parameter optimization. TLBO is a population-based metaheuristic approach in which the optimum solution is characterized in terms of the population [22]. The TLBO approach works based on classroom learning mechanisms. Here, the teacher is presented to teach the learner with a goal, i.e., to increase the learning ability of the learner. However, in the classroom learning mechanism, learners can improve their skills by obtaining knowledge from others. The TLBO approach comprises two stages learner and teacher stages. A comprehensive discussion of both stages is summarized herewith. The teacher phase aims to impart the student’s learning skills so that the entire class’s outcomes are considerably enhanced. This results in an increased mean outcome of the class. Generally, a teacher improves the outcomes of the class learning process to a certain extent. Various limitations are accountable for the outcomes: the learner’s grasping ability, teaching technique, teacher’s capability, knowledge of the learners, and interaction of the learners with others. In the teacher stage, Xi, Lmean′ indicates the learner’s knowledge, and XTeacher′ denotes the teacher in iteration. The major concern of the teachers is to improve the learners’ knowledge. To accomplish this task, the existing mean knowledge of the learners, i.e., Xi, Lmean, is moved to the teacher’s knowledge, i.e., XTeacher′ and is defined by the following expression.

Xi,new=Xi,old+r×(XTeacher−Tf×Xi,Lmean)(8)

Now, XTeacher represents the teacher’s mean knowledge. At the same time, Xi, Lmean denotes the mean knowledge of the ith learner, Tf symbolizes the teaching aspect, and r indicates an arbitrary value in the range of [0, 1]. Xi, new, defines the upgraded knowledge of the ith learner and Xi, old, indicates the preceding knowledge of the ith learner.

Tf=round(1+rand(0,1))(9)

The learner phase aims at boosting the learner’s knowledge from other learners. Therefore, to increase one’s learning capability, a learner should interact randomly with others. In the learner stage of the TLBO approach, the learner also gains knowledge from other learners. The learning ability of a learner is formulated herewith. Once an ith learner wants to communicate with the kth learner and the fitness of the kth learner is maximum than the ith learner, then the location of the ith learner or else kth learner is upgraded.

Xi,new=Xi,old+r×(Xk−Xi)(10)

Xi,new=Xi,old+r×(Xi−Xk)(11)

Once the fitness of the novel location of the ith learner is superior to the fitness value of the older location, then the novel location takes over the older one or else it does not. Fig. 2 depicts the steps involved in TLBO.
