Abstract - Sentiment analysis as the name suggest it is the analysis of the sentiments/feelings/expression related to any
topic, it is also known as opinion mining. Here the motive is to find the general sentiment associated to given document. We
try to classify the subjective information gathered from some microblogging site according to its polarity such as positive,
neutral and negative using machine learning and natural language processing. In this project, we chose Twitter as the
microblogging source for getting peoples sentiments and try to classify the tweets into positive, neutral and negative
sentiment.
Key Words: Sentiment Analysis, Polarity, Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, Twitter, Microblogging.
1.INTRODUCTION
Sentiment analysis studies people judgment or thought towards certain entity. Twitter is a resourceful place to find people
sentiment. Here peoples post their thought/experience/ feelings through tweets which has a character limit of 140.
Twitter has a provision for developers to collect data from twitter by releasing their APIs. In this project we are using one
of the twitter API i.e. streaming API which helps to extract the content in the real time.
Here we perform the linguistic analysis by building the classifier using the several machine learning techniques and
natural language processing by using the collected corpus from the Kaggle as the training data to train our classifier and
use the streamed corpus as the testing data to test the result of our classifier to classify the different sentiments related to
tweets.
In this project we focus on the tweets related to airline as the customer shares their experience on the twitter thorough
their tweets and our analyzer helps the airline company to improve their services by keeping an eye on people’s
sentiments by overcoming their flaws.
