Deep Embedding Sentiment Analysis on Product Reviews Using Naive Bayesian Classifier

Abstract

Product reviews are valuable for upcoming buyers in helping them make decisions. To this end, different opinion mining techniques have been proposed, where judging a review sentence�s orientation (e.g. positive or negative) is one of their key challenges. Recently, deep learning has emerged as an effective means for solving sentiment classification problems. Deep learning is a class of machine learning algorithms that learn in supervised and unsupervised manners. A neural network intrinsically learns a useful representation automatically without human efforts. However, the success of deep learning highly relies on the large-scale training data. We propose a novel deep learning framework for product review sentiment classification which employs prevalently available ratings supervision signals. The framework consists of two steps: (1) learning a high-level representation (an embedding space) which captures the general sentiment distribution of sentences through rating information; (2) adding a category layer on top of the embedding layer and use labelled sentences for supervised fine-tuning. We explore two kinds of low-level network structure for modelling review sentences, namely, convolutional function extractors and long temporary memory. Convolutional layer is the core building block of a CNN and it consists of kernels. Applications are image and video recognition, natural language processing, image classification
