Abstract Social media has been the primary source of information from mainstream news agencies due to the large number of users posting their feedback. The COVID-19 outbreak did not only bring a virus with it but it also brought fear and uncertainty along with inaccurate and misinformation spread on social media platforms. This phenomenon caused a state of panic among people. Different studies were conducted to stop the spread of fake news to help people cope with the situation. In this paper, a semantic analysis of three levels (negative, neutral, and positive) is used to gauge… More >

Abstract Most consumers read online reviews written by different users before making purchase decisions, where each opinion expresses some sentiment. Therefore, sentiment analysis is currently a hot topic of research. In particular, aspect-based sentiment analysis concerns the exploration of emotions, opinions and facts that are expressed by people, usually in the form of polarity. It is crucial to consider polarity calculations and not simply categorize reviews as positive, negative, or neutral. Currently, the available lexicon-based method accuracy is affected by limited coverage. Several of the available polarity estimation techniques are too general and may not reflect… More >

Abstract Unlike the 2007–2008 market crash, which was caused by a banking failure and led to an economic recession, the 1918 influenza pandemic triggered a worldwide financial depression. Pandemics usually affect the global economy, and the COVID-19 pandemic is no exception. Many stock markets have fallen over 40%, and companies are shutting down, ending contracts, and issuing voluntary and involuntary leaves for thousands of employees. These economic effects have led to an increase in unemployment rates, crime, and instability. Studying pandemics’ economic effects, especially on the stock market, has not been urgent or feasible until recently.… More >

Abstract Stock market forecasting is an important research area, especially for better business decision making. Efficient stock predictions continue to be significant for business intelligence. Traditional short-term stock market forecasting is usually based on historical market data analysis such as stock prices, moving averages, or daily returns. However, major events’ news also contains significant information regarding market drivers. An effective stock market forecasting system helps investors and analysts to use supportive information regarding the future direction of the stock market. This research proposes an efficient model for stock market prediction. The current proposed study explores the More >

Abstract Nowadays, as the number of textual data is exponentially increasing, sentiment analysis has become one of the most significant tasks in natural language processing (NLP) with increasing attention. Traditional Chinese sentiment analysis algorithms cannot make full use of the order information in context and are inefficient in sentiment inference. In this paper, we systematically reviewed the classic and representative works in sentiment analysis and proposed a simple but efficient optimization. First of all, FastText was trained to get the basic classification model, which can generate pre-trained word vectors as a by-product. Secondly, Bidirectional Long Short-Term More >

Abstract The current method of extracting new login sentiment words not only ignores the diversity of patterns constituted by new multi-character words (the number of words is greater than two), but also disregards the influence of other new words co-occurring with a new word connoting sentiment. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a method for extracting new login sentiment words from Chinese micro-blog based on improved mutual information. First, micro-blog data are preprocessed, taking into consideration some nonsense signals such as web links and punctuation. Based on preprocessed data, the candidate strings are obtained by… More >

Abstract Web mining is the process of integrating the information from web by traditional data mining methodologies and techniques. Opinion mining is an application of natural language processing to extract subjective information from web. Online reviews require efficient classification algorithms for analysing the sentiments, which does not perform an in–depth analysis in current methods. Sentiment classification is done at document level in combination with topics and sentiments. It is based on weakly supervised Joint Sentiment-Topic mode which extends the topic model Maximum Entropy Discrimination Latent Dirichlet Allocation by constructing an additional sentiment layer. It is assumed More >

Abstract Deep learning has made a great breakthrough in the field of speech and image recognition. Mature deep learning neural network has completely changed the field of nat ural language processing (NLP). Due to the enormous amount of data and opinions being produced, shared and transferred everyday across the Internet and other media, sentiment analysis has become one of the most active research fields in natural language processing. This paper introduces three deep learning networks applied in IMDB movie reviews sent iment analysis. Dataset was divided to 50% positive reviews and 50% negative reviews. Recurrent Neural More >

Abstract With the spread and development of new epidemics, it is of great reference value to identify the changing trends of epidemics in public emotions. We designed and implemented the COVID-19 public opinion monitoring system based on time series thermal new word mining. A new word structure discovery scheme based on the timing explosion of network topics and a Chinese sentiment analysis method for the COVID-19 public opinion environment are proposed. Establish a “Scrapy-Redis-Bloomfilter” distributed crawler framework to collect data. The system can judge the positive and negative emotions of the reviewer based on the comments, More >

Abstract Existing solutions do not work well when multi-targets coexist in a sentence. The reason is that the existing solution is usually to separate multiple targets and process them separately. If the original sentence has N target, the original sentence will be repeated for N times, and only one target will be processed each time. To some extent, this approach degenerates the fine-grained sentiment classification task into the sentencelevel sentiment classification task, and the research method of processing the target separately ignores the internal relation and interaction between the targets. Based on the above considerations, we… More >
