The quality of the interpretation of the sentiment in the online buzz in the social media and the online news can determine the predictability of financial markets and cause huge gains or losses. That is why a number of researchers have turned their full attention to the different aspects of this problem lately. However, there is no well-rounded theoretical and technical framework for approaching the problem to the best of our knowledge. We believe the existing lack of such clarity on the topic is due to its interdisciplinary nature that involves at its core both behavioral-economic topics as well as artificial intelligence. We dive deeper into the interdisciplinary nature and contribute to the formation of a clear frame of discussion. We review the related works that are about market prediction based on online-text-mining and produce a picture of the generic components that they all have. We, furthermore, compare each system with the rest and identify their main differentiating factors. Our comparative analysis of the systems expands onto the theoretical and technical foundations behind each. This work should help the research community to structure this emerging field and identify the exact aspects which require further research and are of special significance.

Review: Text mining for market prediction: A systematic review

In this age, in this nation, public sentiment is everything. With it, nothing can fail; against it, nothing can succeed. Whoever molds public sentiment goes deeper than he who enacts statutes, or pronounces judicial decisions (Abraham Lincoln, 1858 ) [1]. It is apparent from President Lincoln's well known quote that legislators understood the force of open assumption quite a while prior. In today world, the Internet is the main source of information. An enormous amount of information and opinion online is scattered and unstructured with no machine to arrange it. Because of demand the public to know opinions about exact product and services, political issues, or social scientists. That’s led us to study of field Opining Mining and Sentiment Analysis. Opining Mining and Sentiment Analysis have recently played a significant role for researchers because analysis of online text is beneficial for the market research political issue, business intelligence, online shopping, and scientific survey from psychological. Sentiment Analysis identifies the polarity of extracted public opinions. This paper presents a survey which covers Opining Mining, Sentiment Analysis, techniques, tools and classification.

Sentiment Analysis and Opinion Mining: A Survey

A hybrid cuckoo search method (CSK) has been presented for Twitter sentiment analysis.CSK modifies the random initialization of population in cuckoo search (CS) by K-means to resolve the problem of random initialization.The proposed algorithm has outperformed five popular algorithms.The statistical analysis has been done to validate the performance of the proposed algorithm. Sentiment analysis is one of the prominent fields of data mining that deals with the identification and analysis of sentimental contents generally available at social media. Twitter is one of such social medias used by many users about some topics in the form of tweets. These tweets can be analyzed to find the viewpoints and sentiments of the users by using clustering-based methods. However, due to the subjective nature of the Twitter datasets, metaheuristic-based clustering methods outperforms the traditional methods for sentiment analysis. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel metaheuristic method (CSK) which is based on K-means and cuckoo search. The proposed method has been used to find the optimum cluster-heads from the sentimental contents of Twitter dataset. The efficacy of proposed method has been tested on different Twitter datasets and compared with particle swarm optimization, differential evolution, cuckoo search, improved cuckoo search, gauss-based cuckoo search, and two n-grams methods. Experimental results and statistical analysis validate that the proposed method outperforms the existing methods. The proposed method has theoretical implications for the future research to analyze the data generated through social networks/medias. This method has also very generalized practical implications for designing a system that can provide conclusive reviews on any social issues.

Twitter sentiment analysis using hybrid cuckoo search method

Twitter sentiment analysis offers organizations ability to monitor public feeling towards the products and events related to them in real time. The first step of the sentiment analysis is the text pre-processing of Twitter data. Most existing researches about Twitter sentiment analysis are focused on the extraction of new sentiment features. However, to select the pre-processing method is ignored. This paper discussed the effects of text pre-processing method on sentiment classification performance in two types of classification tasks, and summed up the classification performances of six pre-processing methods using two feature models and four classifiers on five Twitter datasets. The experiments show that the accuracy and F1-measure of Twitter sentiment classification classifier are improved when using the pre-processing methods of expanding acronyms and replacing negation, but barely changes when removing URLs, removing numbers or stop words. The Naive Bayes and Random Forest classifiers are more sensitive than Logistic Regression and support vector machine classifiers when various pre-processing methods were applied.

The Role of Text Pre-processing in Sentiment Analysis

The reliability and reproducibility of experimental procedures is a cornerstone of scientific practice. There is a pressing technological need for the better representation of biomedical protocols to enable other agents (human or machine) to better reproduce results. A framework that ensures that all information required for the replication of experimental protocols is essential to achieve reproducibility. We have developed the ontology EXACT2 (EXperimental ACTions) that is designed to capture the full semantics of biomedical protocols required for their reproducibility. To construct EXACT2 we manually inspected hundreds of published and commercial biomedical protocols from several areas of biomedicine. After establishing a clear pattern for extracting the required information we utilized text-mining tools to translate the protocols into a machine amenable format. We have verified the utility of EXACT2 through the successful processing of previously 'unseen' (not used for the construction of EXACT2) protocols. The paper reports on a fundamentally new version EXACT2 that supports the semantically-defined representation of biomedical protocols. The ability of EXACT2 to capture the semantics of biomedical procedures was verified through a text mining use case. In this EXACT2 is used as a reference model for text mining tools to identify terms pertinent to experimental actions, and their properties, in biomedical protocols expressed in natural language. An EXACT2-based framework for the translation of biomedical protocols to a machine amenable format is proposed. The EXACT2 ontology is sufficient to record, in a machine processable form, the essential information about biomedical protocols. EXACT2 defines explicit semantics of experimental actions, and can be used by various computer applications. It can serve as a reference model for for the translation of biomedical protocols in natural language into a semantically-defined format.

EXACT2: the semantics of biomedical protocols.

An explicit and logically consistent model for the representation of biomedical protocols would enable researchers in the Life Sciences to better record, execute, share, and report experimental procedures and results. The model we propose is based on the ontology of EXperimental ACTions (EXACT). The EXACT model is designed to define typical actions performed by biologists in labs and their essential attributes to enable recording of biomedical protocols in a computer processable form. This oral communication aims to report on the recent progress with the EXACT-based representation of biomedical protocols.

The representation of biomedical protocols

This article presents SmartSOP, a framework for IT support of clinical laboratory standards. Adoption of laboratory standards and good practices is critical for ensuring high-quality health services, but clinical labs are dealing with many challenges in following lab standards. The proposed IT framework facilitates an easy access to standardised procedures, monitoring their execution and recording laboratory test results. The SmartSOP framework has been positively evaluated by clinical practitioners from a hospital in Nigeria. The results of the evaluation indicate that lab scientists are likely to adopt SmartSOP if they are provided with relevant training and equipment.
