Sentiment Analysis: Mining Opinions, Sentiments, and Emotions

TLDR
Sentiment analysis is the computational study of people's opinions, sentiments, emotions, moods, and attitudes as discussed by the authors, which offers numerous research challenges, but promises insight useful to anyone interested in opinion analysis and social media analysis.
Abstract
Sentiment analysis is the computational study of people's opinions, sentiments, emotions, moods, and attitudes. This fascinating problem offers numerous research challenges, but promises insight useful to anyone interested in opinion analysis and social media analysis. This comprehensive introduction to the topic takes a natural-language-processing point of view to help readers understand the underlying structure of the problem and the language constructs commonly used to express opinions, sentiments, and emotions. The book covers core areas of sentiment analysis and also includes related topics such as debate analysis, intention mining, and fake-opinion detection. It will be a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners in natural language processing, computer science, management sciences, and the social sciences.In addition to traditional computational methods, this second edition includes recent deep learning methods to analyze and summarize sentiments and opinions, and also new material on emotion and mood analysis techniques, emotion-enhanced dialogues, and multimodal emotion analysis.

Sentiment of Emojis.

TL;DR: The first emoji sentiment lexicon is provided, called the Emoji Sentiment Ranking, and a sentiment map of the 751 most frequently used emojis is drawn, which indicates that most of the emoji are positive, especially the most popular ones.

Improving sentiment analysis via sentence type classification using BiLSTM-CRF and CNN

TL;DR: A divide-and-conquer approach which first classifies sentences into different types, then performs sentiment analysis separately on sentences from each type, which shows that sentence type classification can improve the performance of sentence-level sentiment analysis.

Development and validation of brief measures of positive and negative affect: The PANAS scales.

TL;DR: Two 10-item mood scales that comprise the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) are developed and are shown to be highly internally consistent, largely uncorrelated, and stable at appropriate levels over a 2-month time period.

Latent dirichlet allocation

TL;DR: This work proposes a generative model for text and other collections of discrete data that generalizes or improves on several previous models including naive Bayes/unigram, mixture of unigrams, and Hofmann's aspect model.

Glove: Global Vectors for Word Representation

TL;DR: A new global logbilinear regression model that combines the advantages of the two major model families in the literature: global matrix factorization and local context window methods and produces a vector space with meaningful substructure.

Sample Selection Bias as a Specification Error

James J. Heckman
- 01 Jan 1979 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the bias that results from using non-randomly selected samples to estimate behavioral relationships as an ordinary specification error or "omitted variables" bias is discussed, and the asymptotic distribution of the estimator is derived.

A tutorial on hidden Markov models and selected applications in speech recognition

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an overview of the basic theory of hidden Markov models (HMMs) as originated by L.E. Baum and T. Petrie (1966) and give practical details on methods of implementation of the theory along with a description of selected applications of HMMs to distinct problems in speech recognition.
