Adding Artificial Intelligence Through Opinion Mining

ABSTRACT

The advent of Web 2.0 and social media content has stirred much excitement and created abundant opportunities for understanding the opinions of the general public and consumers toward social events, political movements, company strategies, marketing campaigns, and product references.

Many new and exciting social, geo political, and business-related research questions can be answered by analyzing the thousands, even millions, of comments and responses expressed in various blogs (such as the blogosphere), forums (such as Yahoo Forums), social media and social network sites (including YouTube, Facebook, and Flikr), virtual worlds (such as Second Life), and tweets (Twitter).Opinion mining, a sub discipline within data mining and computational linguistics, refers to the computational techniques for extracting, classifying, understanding, and assessing the opinions expressed in various online news sources, social media comments, and other user-generated content, Sentiment analysis is often used in opinion mining to identify

sentiment, affect, subjectivity, and other emotional states in online text.

  1. INTRODUCTION

    In spite of recent advances, there are still several promising new directions for developing and advancing new opinion mining research. For example, much past and current opinion mining research has focused on English, Chinese, Arabic, and several European languages. Advanced and mature techniques have been developed especially for English.

    However, in light of the large amount of public opinions expressed by citizens in different parts of the world, new, scalable opinion mining and sentiment analysis resources and techniques need to be developed for various languages.

    Future work in multilingual opinion mining will require bootstrapping techniques for analyzing obscure and lesser-known languages for quick situation assessment. Frameworks and methods for integrating sentiments and opinions expressed with other computational representationssuch as interesting topics or product features

    extracted from user-generated text, participant reply networks, spikes and outbreaks of ideas or eventsare also critically needed. Sentiment and opinion alone will not allow researchers to sufficiently understand the complex dynamics in opinions expressed by a large group of participants.

    KEY WORDS: opinion, mining, data- warehouse.

  2. DEFINITIONS

    In general, people can express opinions on any target entityproducts, services, individuals, organizations, or events. In this context, the term object is used to denote the target entity that has been commented on.

    An object can have a set of components (or parts) and a set of attributes (or properties), which we collectively call the features of the object. For example, a particular brand of cellular phone is an object. It has a set of components (such as battery and screen) and a set of attributes (such as voice quality and size), which are all called features (or aspects).

    An opinion can be expressed on any feature of the object and also on the object itself.

  3. DISCUSSION

    To address the broad questions posed in this research, and guided by the literature reviewed, we developed a framework for analysis with four major stages: stakeholder analysis, topical analysis, sentiment analysis, and stock modeling.

    During the stakeholder analysis stage, we identified the stakeholder groups participating in Web forum discussions. In the topical analysis stage, the major topics of discussion driving communication in the Web forum are determined. The sentiment analysis stage consists of assessing the opinions expressed by the Web forum participants in their discussions. Finally, in the stock modeling stage, we examine the relationships between various attributes of Web forum discussions and the firms stock behavior.

    The stock models we developed to test the hypotheses regarding the relationship between the Web forum discussions and the Wal-Mart stock behavior directly followed those proposed in previous research. The models examined the correlation and developed both contemporaneous and predictive regression models using the variables presented in the research design. In the contemporaneous regressions, the stock behavior variables are

    regressed on the measures of the forum discussions occurring on the same day. In the predictive regressions, measures of the forum discussions occurring on a specific day are utilized to predict the stock behavior on the following trading day. We summarize selected results from predictive regression using overall forum data.

    Disagreement and subjectivity also held significant relationships with volatility, where less disagreement and high levels of subjectivity predicted periods of high stock volatility. When the forum consolidated or intensified its sentiment position and utilized highly subjective language, perhaps in efforts to influence other participants, increases in stock volatility were likely to follow in the subsequent trading day.

  4. CONCLUSION

    Finally, despite these difficulties and challenges, the field has made significant progress over the past few years. This is evident from the large number of start-up companies that provide sentiment-analysis and opinion mining services. A real, substantial need exists in industry for such services. This practical need and the technical challenges will keep the field vibrant and lively for years to come.
