Abstract

Sentiment analysis (SA) is a process of extensive exploration of data stored on the Web to identify and categorize the views expressed in a part of the text. The intended outcome of this process is to assess the author attitude toward a particular topic, movie, product, etc. The result is positive, negative, or neutral. These study illustrated different techniques in SA approach for extracting and analytics sentiments associated with the polarity of positive, negative, or neutral on the topic selected. Social networks SA can be a useful source of information and data. SA acquires important in many areas of business, politics, and thought. So, this study contains a comprehensive overview of the most important studies in this field from the past to the recent studies till 2017. The main aim of this study is to provide full concept about SA techniques and its classification and methods used it. Also, we give a brief overview of big data techniques and its relation and use in SA field. Because the recent period has witnessed a remarkable development in the use of Big Data (Hadoop) in the process collection of data and reviews from social networks for analysis.
