Sentiment-Oriented Information Retrieval: Affective Analysis of Documents Based on the SenticNet Framework

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Studies in Computational Intelligence ((SCI,volume 639))

Abstract

Sentiment analysis research has acquired a growing importance due to its applications in several different fields. A large number of companies have included the analysis of opinions and sentiments of costumers as a part of their mission. Therefore, the analysis and automatic classification of large corpora of documents in natural language, based on the conveyed feelings and emotions, has become a crucial issue for text mining purposes. This chapter aims to relate the sentiment-based characterization inferred from books with the distribution of emotions within the same texts. The main result consists in a method to compare and classify texts based on the feelings expressed within the narrative trend.
