Impact of Deep Learning on Semantic Sentiment Analysis

Abstract

Online social media (forums, blogs, and social networks) are increasing explosively, and utilization of these new sources of information has become important. Semantics plays a significant role in accurate analysis of an emotion speech context. Adding to this area, the already advanced semantic technologies have proven to increase the precision of the tests. Deep learning has emerged as a prominent machine learning technique that learns multiple layers or data characteristics and delivers state-of-the-art output. Throughout recent years, deep learning has been widely used in the study of sentiments, along with the growth of deep learning in many other fields of use. This chapter will offer a description of deep learning and its application in the analysis of sentiments. This chapter will focus on the semantic orientation-based approaches for sentiment analysis. In this work, a semantically enhanced methodology for the annotation of sentiment polarity in Twitter/ Facebook data will be presented.
