Optimizing Sentiment Big Data Classification Using Multilayer Perceptron

Abstract

Internet-based platforms such as social media have a great deal of big data that is available in the shape of text, audio, video, and image. Sentiment Analysis (SA) of this big data has become a field of computational studies. Therefore, SA is necessary in texts in the form of messages or posts to determine whether a sentiment is negative or positive. SA is also crucial for the development of opinion mining systems. SA combines techniques of Natural Language Processing (NLP) with data mining approaches for developing inelegant systems. Therefore, an approach that can classify sentiments into two classes, namely, positive sentiment and negative sentiment is proposed. A Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) classifier has been used in this document classification system. The present research aims to provide an effective approach to improving the accuracy of SA systems. The proposed approach is applied to and tested on two datasets, namely, a Twitter dataset and a movie review dataset; the accuracies achieved reach 85% and 99% respectively.
