A Concept For Weighting Sentiment Phrase Using Deterministic Solution Of Algebraic Equations, Maryam Jalali, Morteza Zahedi, Abdolali Basiri Jul 2022

A Concept For Weighting Sentiment Phrase Using Deterministic Solution Of Algebraic Equations, Maryam Jalali, Morteza Zahedi, Abdolali Basiri

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Many text mining methods have used statistical information as text and language-independent procedures that are not deterministic. On the other hand, grammatical structure-based methods are limited to use in a certain language and text. We aim to suggest an algorithmic algebraic equation in a deterministic and nonprobabilistic way while maintaining the advantage of language independence. We propose a mathematical approach that transforms text and labels into a set of dumb equations. By solving the equations, each word is assigned a weight that can reflect the semantic information of that word, then we use the proposed algorithm to build a novel …


A Novel Deep Reinforcement Learning Based Stock Price Prediction Using Knowledge Graph And Community Aware Sentiments, Anil Berk Altuner, Zeynep Hi̇lal Ki̇li̇mci̇ May 2022

A Novel Deep Reinforcement Learning Based Stock Price Prediction Using Knowledge Graph And Community Aware Sentiments, Anil Berk Altuner, Zeynep Hi̇lal Ki̇li̇mci̇

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Stock market prediction has been an important topic for investors, researchers, and analysts. Because it is affected by too many factors, stock market prediction is a difficult task to handle. In this study, we propose a novel method that is based on deep reinforcement learning methodologies for the prediction of stock prices using sentiments of community and knowledge graph. For this purpose, we firstly construct a social knowledge graph of users by analyzing relations between connections. After that, time series analysis of related stock and sentiment analysis is blended with deep reinforcement methodology. Turkish version of Bidirectional Encoder Representations from …


The Impact Of Text Preprocessing On The Prediction Of Review Ratings, Muhi̇tti̇n Işik, Hasan Dağ Jan 2020

The Impact Of Text Preprocessing On The Prediction Of Review Ratings, Muhi̇tti̇n Işik, Hasan Dağ

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

With the increase of e-commerce platforms and online applications, businessmen are looking to have a rating and review system through which they can easily reveal the feelings of customers related to their products and services. It is undeniable from the statistics that online ratings and reviews attract new customers as well as increase sales by means of providing confidence, ratification, opinions, comparisons, merchant credibility, etc. Although considerable research has been devoted to the sentiment analysis for review classification, rather less attention has been paid to the text preprocessing which is a crucial step in opinion mining especially if convenient preprocessing …


Extending A Sentiment Lexicon With Synonym--Antonym Datasets: Swnettr++, Fati̇h Sağlam, Burkay Genç, Hayri̇ Sever Jan 2019

Extending A Sentiment Lexicon With Synonym--Antonym Datasets: Swnettr++, Fati̇h Sağlam, Burkay Genç, Hayri̇ Sever

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In our previous studies on developing a general-purpose Turkish sentiment lexicon, we constructed SWNetTR-PLUS, a sentiment lexicon of 37K words. In this paper, we show how to use Turkish synonym and antonym word pairs to extend SWNetTR-PLUS by almost 33 % to obtain SWNetTR++, a Turkish sentiment lexicon of 49K words. The extension was done by transferring the problem into the graph domain, where nodes are words, and edges are synonym--antonym relations between words, and propagating the existing tone and polarity scores to the newly added words using an algorithm we have developed. We tested the existing and new lexicons …


A Polarity Calculation Approach For Lexicon-Based Turkish Sentiment Analysis, Gökhan Yurtalan, Murat Koyuncu, Çi̇ğdem Turhan Jan 2019

A Polarity Calculation Approach For Lexicon-Based Turkish Sentiment Analysis, Gökhan Yurtalan, Murat Koyuncu, Çi̇ğdem Turhan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Sentiment analysis attempts to resolve the senses or emotions that a writer or speaker intends to send across to the people about an object or event. It generally uses natural language processing and/or artificial intelligence techniques for processing electronic documents and mining the opinion specified in the content. In recent years, researchers have conducted many successful sentiment analysis studies for the English language which consider many words and word groups that set emotion polarities arising from the English grammar structure, and then use datasets to test their performance. However, there are only a limited number of studies for the Turkish …


A Hybrid Sentiment Analysis Method For Turkish, Buket Erşahi̇n, Özlem Aktaş, Deni̇z Kilinç, Mustafa Erşahi̇n Jan 2019

A Hybrid Sentiment Analysis Method For Turkish, Buket Erşahi̇n, Özlem Aktaş, Deni̇z Kilinç, Mustafa Erşahi̇n

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper presents a hybrid methodology for Turkish sentiment analysis, which combines the lexicon-based and machine learning (ML)-based approaches. On the lexicon-based side, we use a sentiment dictionary that is extended with a synonyms lexicon. Besides this, we tackle the classification problem with three supervised classifiers, naive Bayes, support vector machines, and J48, on the ML side. Our hybrid methodology combines these two approaches by generating a new lexicon-based value according to our feature generation algorithm and feeds it as one of the features to machine learning classifiers. Despite the linguistic challenges caused by the morphological structure of Turkish, the …


Intellimote: A Hybrid Classifier For Classifying Learners' Emotion In A Distributed E-Learning Environment, Lopa Mandal, Rohan Das, Samar Bhattacharya, Pramatha Nath Basu Jan 2017

Intellimote: A Hybrid Classifier For Classifying Learners' Emotion In A Distributed E-Learning Environment, Lopa Mandal, Rohan Das, Samar Bhattacharya, Pramatha Nath Basu

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A huge collection of textual, graphical, audio, and video contents are readily available on the Internet to be used for the purpose of learning. Sentimental feedbacks of learners posted at the end of many of these contents may be considered as genuine reactions of the learners who have gone through the contents. Such learners' sentiments are important inputs for judging the acceptability of a learning material. Analyzing such feedbacks using sentiment analysis techniques can identify the best reusable learning contents that may be used for developing new courseware. This can significantly reduce the time and effort of authoring, which is …


Scalable Sentiment Analytics, Aslan Baki̇rov, Kevser Nur Çoğalmiş, Ahmet Bulut Jan 2016

Scalable Sentiment Analytics, Aslan Baki̇rov, Kevser Nur Çoğalmiş, Ahmet Bulut

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Spark has become a widely popular analytics framework that provides an implementation of the equally popular MapReduce programming model. Hadoop is an Apache foundation framework that can be used for processing large datasets on a cluster of computers using the MapReduce programming model. Mahout is an Apache foundation project developed for building scalable machine learning libraries, which includes built-in machine learning classifiers. In this paper, we show how to build a simple text classifier on Spark, Apache Hadoop, and Apache Mahout for extracting out sentiments from a text collection containing millions of text documents. Using a collection of 7 million …
