Abstract

Sentiment analysis in news is different from normal text sentiment analysis. News usually have a specific topic, a focus semantic emotion, therefore, this paper, based on the principal of using Emotion Dependency Tuple (EDT) as the basic unit of news emotion analysis, resolves topic sentiment analysis in news into three progressive sub-problem, namely, topic sentence recognition, EDT extraction and topic sentiment analysis. We use an improved TF- IDF and cross entropy to extract feature set of topics. Then, based on space vector model, calculate the topic association of a sentence and extract topic sentence. Finally, we construct topic sentence based on EDT and complete clustering of news topic sentiment. This method is evaluated using COAE2014 dataset, and differential means shows that our results close to the best results. This shows that the topic based EDT could effectively improve performance of sentiment analysis in news.
