Question: What is the proposed method is based on?
Evidence: Modern society is an information society bombarded from all sides by an increasing number of different pieces of information. The 21st century has brought us the rapid development of media, especially in the internet ecosystem. This change has caused the transfer of many areas of our lives to virtual reality. New forms of communication have been established. Their development has created the need for analysis of related data. Nowadays, unstructured information is available in digital form, but how can we analyse and summarise billions of newly created texts that appear daily on the internet? Natural language analysis techniques, statistics and machine learning have emerged as tools to help us. In recent years, particular attention has focused on sentiment analysis. This area is defined as the study of opinions expressed by people as well as attitudes and emotions about a particular topic, product, event, or person. Sentiment analysis determines the polarisation of the text. It answers the question as to whether a particular text is a positive, negative, or neutral one.
Our goal is to build a comprehensive set of techniques for preparing and analysing texts containing opinions and generating user-friendly descriptive reports in natural language - Figure FIGREF1 . In this paper, we describe briefly the whole workflow and present a prototype implementation. Currently, existing solutions for sentiment annotation offer mostly analysis on the level of entire documents, and if you go deeper to the level of individual product features, they are only superficial and poorly prepared for the analysis of large volumes of data. This can especially be seen in scientific articles where the analysis is carried out on a few hundred reviews only. It is worth mentioning that this task is extremely problematic because of the huge diversity of languages and the difficulty of building a single solution that can cover all the languages used in the world. Natural language analysis often requires additional pre-processing steps, especially at the stage of preparing the data for analysis, and steps specific for each language. Large differences can be seen in the analysis of the Polish language (a highly inflected language) and English (a grammatically simpler one). We propose a solution that will cover several languages, however in this prototype implementation we focused on English texts only.
In this paper, we present analysis and workflow inspired by the work of Joty, Carenini and Ng BIBREF0 . We experimented with several methods in order to validate aspect-based sentiment analysis approaches and in the next steps we want to customise our implementation for the Polish language.
The paper presents in Section SECREF1 an introduction to sentiment analysis and its importance in business, then in Section SECREF2 - related work from rhetorical and sentiment analysis areas is presented. Section SECREF3 covers description of our method. Implementation and the dataset are described in Section SECREF4 . Section SECREF5 refers to the results. The last Section SECREF6 consists of conclusions and future work.
In this paper, we present analysis and workflow inspired by the work of Joty, Carenini and Ng.
Answer: The proposed method is based on the work of Joty, Carenini and Ng.
