NLP Based on Twitter Information: A Survey Report

Abstract

With the further development of Natural language processing (NLP), the analysis of text has been widely applied in a variety of industries. Among them, Twitter, as an online comment publishing platform, has great research potentials. Predictions on Twitter in various industries have become increasingly relevant to scholars. However, the combination of NLP and Twitter still lacks detailed descriptions and reviews. In this paper, NLP and Twitter are studied, and their combinations in a wide range of applications are also analyzed. Twitter and its advantages as NLP corpus are introduced as well. Besides, the history of NLP development as well as its recent tendency of application and development are fully discussed. Meanwhile, the recent applications of NLP and its combination with Twitter, as well as the classification of the combination, are listed. The detailed reports have shown that the application and advantage of the combination of Twitter and NLP are very significant. In future work, the combination of Twitter data analysis and deep learning methods should be taken into consideration.
