An implementation of support vector machine on sentiment classification of movie reviews

Abstract

With technological advances, all information about movie is available on the internet. If the information is processed properly, it will get the quality of the information. This research proposes to the classify sentiments on movie review documents. This research uses Support Vector Machine (SVM) method because it can classify high dimensional data in accordance with the data used in this research in the form of text. Support Vector Machine is a popular machine learning technique for text classification because it can classify by learning from a collection of documents that have been classified previously and can provide good result. Based on number of datasets, the 90-10 composition has the best result that is 85.6%. Based on SVM kernel, kernel linear with constant 1 has the best result that is 84.9%.
