Sentiment Analysis Tool on Cloud: Software as a Service Model

Abstract

In this paper we have proposed an open source tool for sentiment analysis. This tool can be accessed over cloud platform in the form of Software as a Service (SaaS) model. We have used dynamic sentiment extraction and analysis mechanism to derive opinions from the social media data. In order to provide wide range of input data options, our tool encompasses various Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). Most of the tools available in the market pivot around only particular type of data or input source. This proposed tool consolidates the functionality of such sentiment analysis tools and provides a single platform to obtain sentiment analysis from any type of data or input source.
