Abstract:

This paper benchmarks a classical machine learning approach based on PyCaret AutoML against a deep learning approach based on IndoBERT fine-tuning for binary sentiment analysis of Indonesian-language Twitter comments related to Ibu Kota Nusantara (IKN). The dataset contains 1,472 manually labeled samples, consisting of 780 negative and 692 positive comments. In the machine learning setting, Logistic Regression, Naive Bayes, and Support Vector Machine were evaluated using 10-fold cross-validation, with Logistic Regression achieving the best performance among the classical models at 77.57% accuracy and 77.17% F1-score. In the deep learning setting, the indobenchmark/indobert-base-p1 model was fine-tuned for five epochs and achieved 89.59% test accuracy and 89.37% F1-score. The results show that IndoBERT substantially outperforms the machine learning baselines, highlighting the effectiveness of Transformer-based contextual representations for informal Indonesian social media text.

Abstract:

The exponential growth of e-commerce platforms in Indonesia has generated a massive volume of user-generated product reviews. Analyzing the sentiment of these reviews is critical for measuring customer satisfaction and identifying product issues at scale. This paper benchmarks traditional Machine Learning (ML) approaches against a Transformer-based Deep Learning model for a three-class sentiment analysis task (positive, neutral, negative) on the Tokopedia Product Reviews 2025 dataset. We implemented Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) feature extraction coupled with three algorithms: Logistic Regression, Linear Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Multinomial Naive Bayes as robust baselines. Subsequently, we fine-tuned the IndoBERT model (indobenchmark/indobert-base-p1) for contextual sequence classification. To computationally address the severe class imbalance inherent in e-commerce feedback, we applied balanced class weights for the baseline models and engineered a custom weighted cross-entropy loss function within the IndoBERT training loop, following the broader motivation of imbalanced-learning research. Our comprehensive evaluation using Accuracy, Macro F1-score, and Weighted F1-score revealed that the traditional Linear SVC model significantly outperformed the IndoBERT model in our experimental setup, achieving an Accuracy of 97.60% and a Macro F1-score of 0.5510, compared to IndoBERT’s 88.70% and 0.5088. Detailed analysis indicates that this performance gap was primarily driven by discrepancies in the data sampling regimes, where baselines utilized the full corpus while the Transformer was constrained to a sampled subset. Finally, we demonstrate the practical viability of our pipeline by deploying the final sentiment classification model as an interactive Gradio web application.

Abstract:

We present work on sentiment analysis in Twitter for Macedonian. As this is pioneering work for this combination of language and genre, we created suitable resources for training and evaluating a system for sentiment analysis of Macedonian tweets. In particular, we developed a corpus of tweets annotated with tweet-level sentiment polarity (positive, negative, and neutral), as well as with phrase-level sentiment, which we made freely available for research purposes. We further bootstrapped several large-scale sentiment lexicons for Macedonian, motivated by previous work for English. The impact of several different pre-processing steps as well as of various features is shown in experiments that represent the first attempt to build a system for sentiment analysis in Twitter for the morphologically rich Macedonian language. Overall, our experimental results show an F1-score of 92.16, which is very strong and is on par with the best results for English, which were achieved in recent SemEval competitions.

Abstract:

In recent years, sentiment analysis in social media has attracted a lot of research interest and has been used for a number of applications. Unfortunately, research has been hindered by the lack of suitable datasets, complicating the comparison between approaches. To address this issue, we have proposed SemEval-2013 Task 2: Sentiment Analysis in Twitter, which included two subtasks: A, an expression-level subtask, and B, a message-level subtask. We used crowdsourcing on Amazon Mechanical Turk to label a large Twitter training dataset along with additional test sets of Twitter and SMS messages for both subtasks. All datasets used in the evaluation are released to the research community. The task attracted significant interest and a total of 149 submissions from 44 teams. The best-performing team achieved an F1 of 88.9% and 69% for subtasks A and B, respectively.

Abstract:

In this paper, we describe the 2015 iteration of the SemEval shared task on Sentiment Analysis in Twitter. This was the most popular sentiment analysis shared task to date with more than 40 teams participating in each of the last three years. This year’s shared task competition consisted of five sentiment prediction subtasks. Two were reruns from previous years: (A) sentiment expressed by a phrase in the context of a tweet, and (B) overall sentiment of a tweet. We further included three new subtasks asking to predict (C) the sentiment towards a topic in a single tweet, (D) the overall sentiment towards a topic in a set of tweets, and (E) the degree of prior polarity of a phrase.

Abstract:

This paper describes the fifth year of the Sentiment Analysis in Twitter task. SemEval-2017 Task 4 continues with a rerun of the subtasks of SemEval-2016 Task 4, which include identifying the overall sentiment of the tweet, sentiment towards a topic with classification on a two-point and on a five-point ordinal scale, and quantification of the distribution of sentiment towards a topic across a number of tweets: again on a two-point and on a five-point ordinal scale. Compared to 2016, we made two changes: (i) we introduced a new language, Arabic, for all subtasks, and (ii)~we made available information from the profiles of the Twitter users who posted the target tweets. The task continues to be very popular, with a total of 48 teams participating this year.

Abstract:

This paper discusses the fourth year of the Sentiment Analysis in Twitter Task''. SemEval-2016 Task 4 comprises five subtasks, three of which represent a significant departure from previous editions. The first two subtasks are reruns from prior years and ask to predict the overall sentiment, and the sentiment towards a topic in a tweet. The three new subtasks focus on two variants of the basic sentiment classification in Twitter’’ task. The first variant adopts a five-point scale, which confers an ordinal character to the classification task. The second variant focuses on the correct estimation of the prevalence of each class of interest, a task which has been called quantification in the supervised learning literature. The task continues to be very popular, attracting a total of 43 teams.

Abstract:

Internet and the proliferation of smart mobile devices have changed the way information is created, shared, and spreads, e.g., microblogs such as Twitter, weblogs such as LiveJournal, social networks such as Facebook, and instant messengers such as Skype and WhatsApp are now commonly used to share thoughts and opinions about anything in the surrounding world. This has resulted in the proliferation of social media content, thus creating new opportunities to study public opinion at a scale that was never possible before. Naturally, this abundance of data has quickly attracted business and research interest from various fields including marketing, political science, and social studies, among many others, which are interested in questions like these: Do people like the new Apple Watch? Do Americans support ObamaCare? How do Scottish feel about the Brexit? Answering these questions requires studying the sentiment of opinions people express in social media, which has given rise to the fast growth of the field of sentiment analysis in social media, with Twitter being especially popular for research due to its scale, representativeness, variety of topics discussed, as well as ease of public access to its messages. Here we present an overview of work on sentiment analysis on Twitter.

Abstract:

Existing Indonesian sentiment analysis models classify text in isolation, ignoring the topical context that often determines whether a statement is positive, negative, or neutral. We introduce IndoBERT-Sentiment, a context-conditioned sentiment classifier that takes both a topical context and a text as input, producing sentiment predictions grounded in the topic being discussed. Built on IndoBERT Large (335M parameters) and trained on 31,360 context-text pairs labeled across 188 topics, the model achieves an F1 macro of 0.856 and accuracy of 88.1%. In a head-to-head evaluation against three widely used general-purpose Indonesian sentiment models on the same test set, IndoBERT-Sentiment outperforms the best baseline by 35.6 F1 points. We show that context-conditioning, previously demonstrated for relevancy classification, transfers effectively to sentiment analysis and enables the model to correctly classify texts that are systematically misclassified by context-free approaches.

Abstract:

This study presents a comparative analysis between two primary approaches in Natural Language Processing (NLP): Machine Learning (ML) utilizing the PyCaret AutoML framework, and Deep Learning (DL). The evaluation is conducted on a sentiment analysis task using an Indonesian e-commerce review dataset sourced from Hugging Face. The dataset, consisting of 15,000 samples, is partitioned into training, validation, and testing sets. The ML experiments compare LightGBM, Logistic Regression, and Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithms, whereas the DL experiment implements a Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) architecture. The experimental results demonstrate that the BiLSTM model outperforms all ML models, achieving an accuracy of 98.87% and an F1-Score of 98.87%. Meanwhile, LightGBM emerges as the best-performing ML model with an accuracy of 98.23% in a highly efficient training time. This research proves that the BiLSTM architecture is highly capable of capturing the sequential context of Indonesian review texts, making it the superior model for this specific classification task.

Abstract:

This paper presents a compact three-class sentiment analysis study for Indonesian social media text. The task is formulated with positive, negative, and neutral outputs derived from a fine-grained emotion dataset. The proposed practical baseline combines TF–IDF text features, three lightweight numeric metadata features, and a balanced multinomial Logistic Regression classifier. For comparison, the study also includes a neural baseline using a two-layer multilayer perceptron (MLP) over the same hybrid feature representation. The dataset originally contains 732 rows and 191 fine-grained emotion labels; after cleaning, deduplication, and label remapping, 707 samples remain with an imbalanced distribution of 459 positive, 188 negative, and 60 neutral instances. Experimental results show that the Logistic Regression deployment model reaches 0.8028 accuracy, 0.8003 weighted F1, and 0.7276 macro F1, while project documentation reports a higher-accuracy but non-production MLP baseline. These findings indicate that careful preprocessing, interpretable feature engineering, and class balancing remain competitive for small Indonesian sentiment datasets, whereas the neural baseline is better treated as a comparative experiment than as the default deployment model.

Abstract:

In today’s world, everyone is expressive in some way, and the focus of this project is on people’s opinions about rising electricity prices in United Kingdom and India using data from Twitter, a micro-blogging platform on which people post messages, known as tweets. Because many people’s incomes are not good and they have to pay so many taxes and bills, maintaining a home has become a disputed issue these days. Despite the fact that Government offered subsidy schemes to compensate people electricity bills but it is not welcomed by people. In this project, the aim is to perform sentiment analysis on people’s expressions and opinions expressed on Twitter. In order to grasp the electricity prices opinion, it is necessary to carry out sentiment analysis for the government and consumers in energy market. Furthermore, text present on these medias are unstructured in nature, so to process them we firstly need to pre-process the data. There are so many feature extraction techniques such as Bag of Words, TF-IDF (Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency), word embedding, NLP based features like word count. In this project, we analysed the impact of feature TF-IDF word level on electricity bills dataset of sentiment analysis. We found that by using TF-IDF word level performance of sentiment analysis is 3-4 higher than using N-gram features. Analysis is done using four classification algorithms including Naive Bayes, Decision Tree, Random Forest, and Logistic Regression and considering F-Score, Accuracy, Precision, and Recall performance parameters.

Abstract:

Sentiment analysis of product reviews on e-commerce platforms plays a critical role in automatically understanding customer satisfaction and providing actionable insights for sellers seeking to improve product quality. This paper presents a comprehensive benchmarking study comparing a Machine Learning (ML) approach via the PyCaret AutoML framework against a Deep Learning (DL) approach based on a Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) architecture with an Attention mechanism for binary sentiment classification on Indonesian product reviews. The dataset comprises 19,728 samples balanced equally between positive and negative reviews. For the ML approach, three prominent algorithms were evaluated via 10-fold stratified cross-validation: Logistic Regression (LR), Support Vector Machine (SVM) with a linear kernel, and Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM). Logistic Regression achieved the best ML performance with an accuracy of 97.26% and an F1-score of 97.26%. The BiLSTM with Attention model, evaluated on 3,946 held-out test samples, achieved an accuracy of 97.24% and an F1-score of 97.24%. These comparative results demonstrate that traditional ML algorithms with proper preprocessing and feature extraction can compete closely with, and even marginally outperform, more complex sequential DL architectures on high-dimensional datasets, while simultaneously offering greater computational efficiency.

Abstract:

This study analyzes Indonesian student opinions on the adoption of artificial intelligence in higher education using two approaches: TF-IDF-based machine learning and Transformer-based deep learning. The dataset consists of 2,295 labeled samples, combining 1,154 student opinions with additional lexical sentiment data. LightGBM, Random Forest, and Support Vector Machine (SVM) are evaluated as machine learning models, while DistilBERT is fine-tuned for binary sentiment classification. The results show that SVM achieves the best performance among the machine learning models with 82.14% test accuracy and F1-score, while DistilBERT performs best overall with 84.78% accuracy and 84.75% F1-score. These findings indicate that Transformer-based models better capture contextual information, although SVM remains a competitive and efficient alternative for sentiment classification.

Abstract:

This paper benchmarks classical machine learning and deep learning approaches for three-class sentiment classification of Indonesian Spotify reviews. Using 100,000 scraped reviews and 70,155 cleaned samples, the study compares Support Vector Machine, Multinomial Naive Bayes, and Decision Tree models with a two-layer BiLSTM. Both approaches use the same preprocessing pipeline, including slang normalization, stopword removal, and stemming. Decision Tree achieves the best performance among the classical models, while BiLSTM attains the highest weighted F1-score overall but fails on the minority neutral class. The paper concludes that BiLSTM is stronger for overall sentiment detection, whereas machine learning with SMOTE provides more balanced three-class performance.

Abstract:

Understanding emotions in the Indonesian language is essential for improving customer experiences in e-commerce. This study focuses on enhancing the accuracy of emotion classification in Indonesian by leveraging advanced language models, IndoBERT and DistilBERT. A key component of our approach was data processing, specifically data augmentation, which included techniques such as back-translation and synonym replacement. These methods played a significant role in boosting the model’s performance. After hyperparameter tuning, IndoBERT achieved an accuracy of 80%, demonstrating the impact of careful data processing. While combining multiple IndoBERT models led to a slight improvement, it did not significantly enhance performance. Our findings indicate that IndoBERT was the most effective model for emotion classification in Indonesian, with data augmentation proving to be a vital factor in achieving high accuracy. Future research should focus on exploring alternative architectures and strategies to improve generalization for Indonesian NLP tasks.

Abstract:

This paper covers the two approaches for sentiment analysis: i) lexicon based method; ii) machine learning method. We describe several techniques to implement these approaches and discuss how they can be adopted for sentiment classification of Twitter messages. We present a comparative study of different lexicon combinations and show that enhancing sentiment lexicons with emoticons, abbreviations and social-media slang expressions increases the accuracy of lexicon-based classification for Twitter. We discuss the importance of feature generation and feature selection processes for machine learning sentiment classification. To quantify the performance of the main sentiment analysis methods over Twitter we run these algorithms on a benchmark Twitter dataset from the SemEval-2013 competition, task 2-B. The results show that machine learning method based on SVM and Naive Bayes classifiers outperforms the lexicon method. We present a new ensemble method that uses a lexicon based sentiment score as input feature for the machine learning approach. The combined method proved to produce more precise classifications. We also show that employing a cost-sensitive classifier for highly unbalanced datasets yields an improvement of sentiment classification performance up to 7%.

Abstract:

The rise in popularity and ubiquity of Twitter has made sentiment analysis of tweets an important and well-covered area of research. However, the 140 character limit imposed on tweets makes it hard to use standard linguistic methods for sentiment classification. On the other hand, what tweets lack in structure they make up with sheer volume and rich metadata. This metadata includes geolocation, temporal and author information. We hypothesize that sentiment is dependent on all these contextual factors. Different locations, times and authors have different emotional valences. In this paper, we explored this hypothesis by utilizing distant supervision to collect millions of labelled tweets from different locations, times and authors. We used this data to analyse the variation of tweet sentiments across different authors, times and locations. Once we explored and understood the relationship between these variables and sentiment, we used a Bayesian approach to combine these variables with more standard linguistic features such as n-grams to create a Twitter sentiment classifier. This combined classifier outperforms the purely linguistic classifier, showing that integrating the rich contextual information available on Twitter into sentiment classification is a promising direction of research.

Abstract:

The amount of opinionated data on the internet is rapidly increasing. More and more people are sharing their ideas and opinions in reviews, discussion forums, microblogs and general social media. As opinions are central in all human activities, sentiment analysis has been applied to gain insights in this type of data. There are proposed several approaches for sentiment classification. The major drawback is the lack of standardized solutions for classification and high-level visualization. In this study, a sentiment analyzer dashboard for online social networking analysis is proposed. This, to enable people gaining insights in topics interesting to them. The tool allows users to run the desired sentiment analysis algorithm in the dashboard. In addition to providing several visualization types, the dashboard facilitates raw data results from the sentiment classification which can be downloaded for further analysis.

Abstract:

Despite a substantial progress made in developing new sentiment lexicon generation (SLG) methods for English, the task of transferring these approaches to other languages and domains in a sound way still remains open. In this paper, we contribute to the solution of this problem by systematically comparing semi-automatic translations of common English polarity lists with the results of the original automatic SLG algorithms, which were applied directly to German data. We evaluate these lexicons on a corpus of 7,992 manually annotated tweets. In addition to that, we also collate the results of dictionary- and corpus-based SLG methods in order to find out which of these paradigms is better suited for the inherently noisy domain of social media. Our experiments show that semi-automatic translations notably outperform automatic systems (reaching a macro-averaged F1-score of 0.589), and that dictionary-based techniques produce much better polarity lists as compared to corpus-based approaches (whose best F1-scores run up to 0.479 and 0.419 respectively) even for the non-standard Twitter genre.

Abstract:

This paper compares a PyCaret AutoML branch and a CNN-BiLSTM branch for binary hate speech detection on Indonesian Twitter using the HS label from the corpus of Ibrohim and Budi. Both branches share the same preprocessing pipeline so that the comparison reflects modelling differences rather than inconsistent data preparation. The conventional branch uses TF-IDF with a lexicon-based abusive-word count, whereas the neural branch learns dense token representations and captures both local phrase patterns and bidirectional context. The benchmark is built from the released 13,130-row annotation table, whose HS label yields a 58:42 class ratio. On the held-out split, CNN-BiLSTM achieves the best result with 83.8% accuracy, 79.8% precision, 82.7% recall, and 81.2% F1-score. Within the PyCaret branch, Random Forest is the strongest conventional model with 77.2% accuracy and 77.0% F1-score. The neural branch therefore improves accuracy by 6.6 points and F1-score by 4.2 points. Exploratory corpus analysis, learning curves, and confusion matrices show that the dataset is short-text, moderately imbalanced, and still difficult because many decisions depend on local lexical cues plus short contextual composition. The study concludes that PyCaret AutoML is an effective conventional benchmarking framework, whereas CNN-BiLSTM is the stronger end model for the reported benchmark setting.

Abstract:

Although the Indonesian language is spoken by almost 200 million people and the 10th most spoken language in the world, it is under-represented in NLP research. Previous work on Indonesian has been hampered by a lack of annotated datasets, a sparsity of language resources, and a lack of resource standardization. In this work, we release the IndoLEM dataset comprising seven tasks for the Indonesian language, spanning morpho-syntax, semantics, and discourse. We additionally release IndoBERT, a new pre-trained language model for Indonesian, and evaluate it over IndoLEM, in addition to benchmarking it against existing resources. Our experiments show that IndoBERT achieves state-of-the-art performance over most of the tasks in IndoLEM.

Abstract:

This paper reports about our work in the NLP Tool Contest @ICON-2017, shared task on Sentiment Analysis for Indian Languages (SAIL) (code mixed). To implement our system, we have used a machine learning algo-rithm called Multinomial Naïve Bayes trained using n-gram and SentiWordnet features. We have also used a small SentiWordnet for English and a small SentiWordnet for Bengali. But we have not used any SentiWordnet for Hindi language.

Abstract:

Determining whether a piece of text is relevant to a given topic is a fundamental task in natural language processing, yet it remains largely unexplored for Bahasa Indonesia. Unlike sentiment analysis or named entity recognition, relevancy classification requires the model to reason about the relationship between two inputs simultaneously: a topical context and a candidate text. We introduce IndoBERT-Relevancy, a context-conditioned relevancy classifier built on IndoBERT Large (335M parameters) and trained on a novel dataset of 31,360 labeled pairs spanning 188 topics. Through an iterative, failure-driven data construction process, we demonstrate that no single data source is sufficient for robust relevancy classification, and that targeted synthetic data can effectively address specific model weaknesses. Our final model achieves an F1 score of 0.948 and an accuracy of 96.5%, handling both formal and informal Indonesian text. The model is publicly available at HuggingFace.


28. Can Sentiment Analysis Reveal Structure in a Plotless Novel?

Abstract:

Modernist novels are thought to break with traditional plot structure. In this paper, we test this theory by applying Sentiment Analysis to one of the most famous modernist novels, To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf. We first assess Sentiment Analysis in light of the critique that it cannot adequately account for literary language: we use a unique statistical comparison to demonstrate that even simple lexical approaches to Sentiment Analysis are surprisingly effective. We then use the Syuzhet.R package to explore similarities and differences across modeling methods. This comparative approach, when paired with literary close reading, can offer interpretive clues. To our knowledge, we are the first to undertake a hybrid model that fully leverages the strengths of both computational analysis and close reading. This hybrid model raises new questions for the literary critic, such as how to interpret relative versus absolute emotional valence and how to take into account subjective identification. Our finding is that while To the Lighthouse does not replicate a plot centered around a traditional hero, it does reveal an underlying emotional structure distributed between characters - what we term a distributed heroine model. This finding is innovative in the field of modernist and narrative studies and demonstrates that a hybrid method can yield significant discoveries.

Abstract:

Sentiment analysis is a highly subjective and challenging task. Its complexity further increases when applied to the Arabic language, mainly because of the large variety of dialects that are unstandardized and widely used in the Web, especially in social media. While many datasets have been released to train sentiment classifiers in Arabic, most of these datasets contain shallow annotation, only marking the sentiment of the text unit, as a word, a sentence or a document. In this paper, we present the Arabic Sentiment Twitter Dataset for the Levantine dialect (ArSenTD-LEV). Based on findings from analyzing tweets from the Levant region, we created a dataset of 4,000 tweets with the following annotations: the overall sentiment of the tweet, the target to which the sentiment was expressed, how the sentiment was expressed, and the topic of the tweet. Results confirm the importance of these annotations at improving the performance of a baseline sentiment classifier. They also confirm the gap of training in a certain domain, and testing in another domain.

Abstract:

Analysis of a large amount of data has always brought value to institutions and organizations. Lately, people’s opinions expressed through text have become a very important aspect of this analysis. In response to this challenge, a natural language processing technique known as Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) has emerged. Having the ability to extract the polarity for each aspect of opinions separately, ABSA has found itself useful in a wide range of domains. Education is one of the domains in which ABSA can be successfully utilized. Being able to understand and find out what students like and don’t like most about a course, professor, or teaching methodology can be of great importance for the respective institutions. While this task represents a unique NLP challenge, many studies have proposed different approaches to tackle the problem. In this work, we present a comprehensive review of the existing work in ABSA with a focus in the education domain. A wide range of methodologies are discussed and conclusions are drawn.

Abstract:

Gender analysis of Twitter can reveal important socio-cultural differences between male and female users. There has been a significant effort to analyze and automatically infer gender in the past for most widely spoken languages’ content, however, to our knowledge very limited work has been done for Arabic. In this paper, we perform an extensive analysis of differences between male and female users on the Arabic Twitter-sphere. We study differences in user engagement, topics of interest, and the gender gap in professions. Along with gender analysis, we also propose a method to infer gender by utilizing usernames, profile pictures, tweets, and networks of friends. In order to do so, we manually annotated gender and locations for ~166K Twitter accounts associated with ~92K user location, which we plan to make publicly available at http://anonymous.com. Our proposed gender inference method achieve an F1 score of 82.1%, which is 47.3% higher than majority baseline. In addition, we also developed a demo and made it publicly available.

Abstract:

Sentiment analysis aims to uncover emotions conveyed through information. In its simplest form, it is performed on a polarity basis, where the goal is to classify information with positive or negative emotion. Recent research has explored more nuanced ways to capture emotions that go beyond polarity. For these methods to work, they require a critical resource: a lexicon that is appropriate for the task at hand, in terms of the range of emotions it captures diversity. In the past, sentiment analysis lexicons have been created by experts, such as linguists and behavioural scientists, with strict rules. Lexicon evaluation was also performed by experts or gold standards. In our paper, we propose a crowdsourcing method for lexicon acquisition, which is scalable, cost-effective, and doesn’t require experts or gold standards. We also compare crowd and expert evaluations of the lexicon, to assess the overall lexicon quality, and the evaluation capabilities of the crowd.

Abstract:

With increasing usage of clickbaits in Indonesian Online News, newsworthy articles sometimes get buried among clickbaity news. A reliable and lightweight tool is needed to detect such clickbaits on-the-go. Leveraging state-of-the-art natural language processing model BERT, a RESTful API based application is developed. This study offloaded the computing resources needed to train the model on the cloud server, while the client-side application only needs to send a request to the API and the cloud server will handle the rest. This study proposed the design and developed a web-based application to detect clickbait in Indonesian using IndoBERT as a language model. The application usage is discussed and available for public use with a performance of mean ROC-AUC of 89%.

Abstract:

With the advent of word embeddings, lexicons are no longer fully utilized for sentiment analysis although they still provide important features in the traditional setting. This paper introduces a novel approach to sentiment analysis that integrates lexicon embeddings and an attention mechanism into Convolutional Neural Networks. Our approach performs separate convolutions for word and lexicon embeddings and provides a global view of the document using attention. Our models are experimented on both the SemEval'16 Task 4 dataset and the Stanford Sentiment Treebank, and show comparative or better results against the existing state-of-the-art systems. Our analysis shows that lexicon embeddings allow to build high-performing models with much smaller word embeddings, and the attention mechanism effectively dims out noisy words for sentiment analysis.

Abstract:

Social media has become extremely influential when it comes to policy making in modern societies, especially in the western world, where platforms such as Twitter allow users to follow politicians, thus making citizens more involved in political discussion. In the same vein, politicians use Twitter to express their opinions, debate among others on current topics and promote their political agendas aiming to influence voter behaviour. In this paper, we attempt to analyse tweets of politicians from three European countries and explore the virality of their tweets. Previous studies have shown that tweets conveying negative sentiment are likely to be retweeted more frequently. By utilising state-of-the-art pre-trained language models, we performed sentiment analysis on hundreds of thousands of tweets collected from members of parliament in Greece, Spain and the United Kingdom, including devolved administrations. We achieved this by systematically exploring and analysing the differences between influential and less popular tweets. Our analysis indicates that politicians’ negatively charged tweets spread more widely, especially in more recent times, and highlights interesting differences between political parties as well as between politicians and the general population.

Abstract:

A novel social networks sentiment analysis model is proposed based on Twitter sentiment score (TSS) for real-time prediction of the future stock market price FTSE 100, as compared with conventional econometric models of investor sentiment based on closed-end fund discount (CEFD). The proposed TSS model features a new baseline correlation approach, which not only exhibits a decent prediction accuracy, but also reduces the computation burden and enables a fast decision making without the knowledge of historical data. Polynomial regression, classification modelling and lexicon-based sentiment analysis are performed using R. The obtained TSS predicts the future stock market trend in advance by 15 time samples (30 working hours) with an accuracy of 67.22% using the proposed baseline criterion without referring to historical TSS or market data. Specifically, TSS’s prediction performance of an upward market is found far better than that of a downward market. Under the logistic regression and linear discriminant analysis, the accuracy of TSS in predicting the upward trend of the future market achieves 97.87%.


37. Improving Bi-LSTM Performance for Indonesian Sentiment Analysis Using Paragraph Vector

arXiv: 2009.05720v1

Abstract:

Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory Network (Bi-LSTM) has shown promising performance in sentiment classification task. It processes inputs as sequence of information. Due to this behavior, sentiment predictions by Bi-LSTM were influenced by words sequence and the first or last phrases of the texts tend to have stronger features than other phrases. Meanwhile, in the problem scope of Indonesian sentiment analysis, phrases that express the sentiment of a document might not appear in the first or last part of the document that can lead to incorrect sentiment classification. To this end, we propose the using of an existing document representation method called paragraph vector as additional input features for Bi-LSTM. This vector provides information context of the document for each sequence processing. The paragraph vector is simply concatenated to each word vector of the document. This representation also helps to differentiate ambiguous Indonesian words. Bi-LSTM and paragraph vector were previously used as separate methods. Combining the two methods has shown a significant performance improvement of Indonesian sentiment analysis model. Several case studies on testing data showed that the proposed method can handle the sentiment phrases position problem encountered by Bi-LSTM.

Abstract:

This project addresses the problem of sentiment analysis in twitter; that is classifying tweets according to the sentiment expressed in them: positive, negative or neutral. Twitter is an online micro-blogging and social-networking platform which allows users to write short status updates of maximum length 140 characters. It is a rapidly expanding service with over 200 million registered users - out of which 100 million are active users and half of them log on twitter on a daily basis - generating nearly 250 million tweets per day. Due to this large amount of usage we hope to achieve a reflection of public sentiment by analysing the sentiments expressed in the tweets. Analysing the public sentiment is important for many applications such as firms trying to find out the response of their products in the market, predicting political elections and predicting socioeconomic phenomena like stock exchange. The aim of this project is to develop a functional classifier for accurate and automatic sentiment classification of an unknown tweet stream.

Abstract:

Sarcasm is considered one of the most difficult problem in sentiment analysis. In our ob-servation on Indonesian social media, for cer-tain topics, people tend to criticize something using sarcasm. Here, we proposed two additional features to detect sarcasm after a common sentiment analysis is conducted. The features are the negativity information and the number of interjection words. We also employed translated SentiWordNet in the sentiment classification. All the classifications were conducted with machine learning algorithms. The experimental results showed that the additional features are quite effective in the sarcasm detection.

Abstract:

Social media serves as a unified platform for users to express their thoughts on subjects ranging from their daily lives to their opinion on consumer brands and products. These users wield an enormous influence in shaping the opinions of other consumers and influence brand perception, brand loyalty and brand advocacy. In this paper, we analyze the opinion of 19M Twitter users towards 62 popular industries, encompassing 12,898 enterprise and consumer brands, as well as associated subject matter topics, via sentiment analysis of 330M tweets over a period spanning a month. We find that users tend to be most positive towards manufacturing and most negative towards service industries. In addition, they tend to be more positive or negative when interacting with brands than generally on Twitter. We also find that sentiment towards brands within an industry varies greatly and we demonstrate this using two industries as use cases. In addition, we discover that there is no strong correlation between topic sentiments of different industries, demonstrating that topic sentiments are highly dependent on the context of the industry that they are mentioned in. We demonstrate the value of such an analysis in order to assess the impact of brands on social media. We hope that this initial study will prove valuable for both researchers and companies in understanding users’ perception of industries, brands and associated topics and encourage more research in this field.

Sundial is the ancient or classic timekeeper device, especially prior to the invention of mechanical clock. In the classical Islamic civilization, the daily movement of the Sun becomes main indicator of praying time, which can be deduced using sundial. This kind of device probably permeated to Indonesia during the Islamic acculturation. Since then, the development of astronomical knowledge, technology, art and architectural in classical Indonesia are partially reflected into sundial. These historical attractions of sundial demand comprehensive documentation and investigation of Indonesian sundial which are rarely found in the current literatures. The required spatial and temporal information regarding Indonesian sundial can be collected by general public through citizen science scheme. This concept may answer scientific curiosity of a research and also educate the people, expose them with science. In this article, general scheme of citizen science are discussed, its application for sundial study in Indonesia is proposed as Suryakala-Nusantara program.

Abstract:

Whenever human beings interact with each other, they exchange or express opinions, emotions, and sentiments. These opinions can be expressed in text, speech or images. Analysis of these sentiments is one of the popular research areas of present day researchers. Sentiment analysis, also known as opinion mining tries to identify or classify these sentiments or opinions into two broad categories - positive and negative. In recent years, the scientific community has taken a lot of interest in analyzing sentiment in textual data available in various social media platforms. Much work has been done on social media conversations, blog posts, newspaper articles and various narrative texts. However, when it comes to identifying emotions from scientific papers, researchers have faced some difficulties due to the implicit and hidden nature of opinion. By default, citation instances are considered inherently positive in emotion. Popular ranking and indexing paradigms often neglect the opinion present while citing. In this paper, we have tried to achieve three objectives. First, we try to identify the major sentiment in the citation text and assign a score to the instance. We have used a statistical classifier for this purpose. Secondly, we have proposed a new index (we shall refer to it hereafter as M-index) which takes into account both the quantitative and qualitative factors while scoring a paper. Thirdly, we developed a ranking of research papers based on the M-index. We also try to explain how the M-index impacts the ranking of scientific papers.

Abstract:

This study presents a domain adaptation approach for speaker diarization targeting conversational Indonesian audio. We address the challenge of adapting an English-centric diarization pipeline to a low-resource language by employing synthetic data generation using neural Text-to-Speech technology. Experiments were conducted with varying training configurations, a small dataset (171 samples) and a large dataset containing 25 hours of synthetic speech. Results demonstrate that the baseline \texttt{pyannote/segmentation-3.0} model, trained on the AMI Corpus, achieves a Diarization Error Rate (DER) of 53.47% when applied zero-shot to Indonesian. Domain adaptation significantly improves performance, with the small dataset models reducing DER to 34.31% (1 epoch) and 34.81% (2 epochs). The model trained on the 25-hour dataset achieves the best performance with a DER of 29.24%, representing a 13.68% absolute improvement over the baseline while maintaining 99.06% Recall and 87.14% F1-Score.

Abstract:

The volume of discussions concerning brands within social media provides digital marketers with great opportunities for tracking and analyzing the feelings and views of consumers toward brands, products, influencers, services, and ad campaigns in CGC. The present study aims to assess and compare the performance of firms and celebrities (i.e., influencers that with the experience of being in an ad campaign of those companies) with the automated sentiment analysis that was employed for CGC at social media while exploring the feeling of the consumers toward them to observe which influencer (of two for each company) had a closer effect with the corresponding corporation on consumer minds. For this purpose, several consumer tweets from the pages of brands and influencers were utilized to make a comparison of machine learning and lexicon-based approaches to the sentiment analysis through the Naive algorithm (lexicon-based) and Naive Bayes algorithm (machine learning method) and obtain the desired results to assess the campaigns. The findings suggested that the approaches were dissimilar in terms of accuracy; the machine learning method yielded higher accuracy. Finally, the results showed which influencer was more appropriate according to their existence in previous campaigns and helped choose the right influencer in the future for our company and have a better, more appropriate, and more efficient ad campaign subsequently. It is required to conduct further studies on the accuracy improvement of the sentiment classification. This approach should be employed for other social media CGC types. The results revealed decision-making for which sentiment analysis methods are the best approaches for the analysis of social media. It was also found that companies should be aware of their consumers’ sentiments and choose the right person every time they think of a campaign.

Abstract:

Social media hold valuable, vast and unstructured information on public opinion that can be utilized to improve products and services. The automatic analysis of such data, however, requires a deep understanding of natural language. Current sentiment analysis approaches are mainly based on word co-occurrence frequencies, which are inadequate in most practical cases. In this work, we propose a novel hybrid framework for concept-level sentiment analysis in Persian language, that integrates linguistic rules and deep learning to optimize polarity detection. When a pattern is triggered, the framework allows sentiments to flow from words to concepts based on symbolic dependency relations. When no pattern is triggered, the framework switches to its subsymbolic counterpart and leverages deep neural networks (DNN) to perform the classification. The proposed framework outperforms state-of-the-art approaches (including support vector machine, and logistic regression) and DNN classifiers (long short-term memory, and Convolutional Neural Networks) with a margin of 10-15% and 3-4% respectively, using benchmark Persian product and hotel reviews corpora.

Abstract:

Information exchange and message diffusion have moved from traditional media to social media platforms. Messages on platforms such as Twitter have become the default mode of company communications replacing lengthier public announcements and updates. Businesses and organizations have increased their use of Twitter to connect with stakeholders. As a result, it is important to understand the key drivers of successful information exchange and message diffusion via Twitter. We conducted an exploratory analysis on a dataset of over a million Tweets, comprising of over 40,000 lead Tweets, further filtered to over 18,000 Tweets. We identified the most popular messages, and analyzed the tweets on multiple endogenous dimensions including content, sentiment, motive and richness, and exogenous dimensions such as fundamental events, social learning, and activism. We found some interesting patterns and uncovered new insights to help researchers and practitioners better understand the behavior of popular viral tweets. We also performed sentiment analysis and present an early stage model to explain tweet performance.
