Emotion recognition is one of the most important and challenging areas of computer vision. Nowadays, many studies on emotion recognition were conducted and the performance of models is also improving. but, more research is needed on emotion recognition and sentiment analysis of video viewers. In this paper, we propose an emotion analysis system the includes a sentiment analysis model and an interest prediction model. We analyzed the emotional patterns of people watching popular and unpopular videos and predicted the level of interest using the emotion analysis system. Experimental results showed that certain emotions were strongly related to the popularity of videos and the interest prediction model had high accuracy in predicting the level of interest.

Sentiment analysis is the process of determining whether a piece of document, text or conversation is positive, negative, neural or other emotion. Sentiment analysis has been applied for several real-world applications, such as chatbot. In the last five years, the practical use of the chatbot has been prevailing in many field of industry. In the chatbot applications, to recognize the user emotion, sentiment analysis must be performed in advance in order to understand the intent of speakers. The specific emotion is more than describing positive or negative sentences. In light of this context, we propose deep learning models for conducting multi-class sentiment analysis for identifying speaker's emotion which is categorized to be joy, fear, guilt, sad, shame, disgust, and anger. Thus, we develop convolutional neural network (CNN), long short term memory (LSTM), and multi-layer neural network models, as deep neural networks models, for detecting emotion in a sentence. In addition, word embedding process was also applied in our research. In our experiments, we have found that long short term memory (LSTM) model performs best compared to convolutional neural networks and multi-layer neural networks. Moreover, we also show the practical applicability of the deep learning models to the sentiment analysis for chatbot.

After emerging online communications, text mining and sentiment analysis has been frequently applied into analyzing electronic word-of-mouth. This study aims to develop a domain-specific lexicon of sentiment analysis to predict box office success in Korea film market and validate the feasibility of the lexicon. Natural language processing, a machine learning algorithm, and a lexicon-based sentiment classification method are employed. To create a movie domain sentiment lexicon, 233,631 reviews of 147 movies with popularity ratings is collected by a XML crawling package in R program. We accomplished 81.69% accuracy in sentiment classification by the Korean sentiment dictionary including 706 negative words and 617 positive words. The result showed a stronger positive relationship with box office success and consumers' sentiment as well as a significant positive effect in the linear regression for the predicting model. In addition, it reveals emotion in the user-generated content can be a more accurate clue to predict business success.

We propose the sentiment pattern as a novel sentiment feature for more accurate text sentiment analysis, and introduce the rating inference of movie reviews using it. The text sentiment analysis is a task that recognizes and classifies sentiment of text whether it is positive or negative. For that purpose, the sentiment feature is used, which includes sentiment words and phrase pattern that have specific sentiment like positive or negative. The previous researches for the sentiment analysis, however, have a limit to understand accurately total sentiment of either a sentence or text because they consider the sentiment of sentiment words and phrase patterns independently. Therefore, we propose the sentiment pattern that is defined by arranging semantically all sentiment in a sentence, and use them as a new sentiment feature for the rating inference that is one of the detail subjects of the sentiment analysis. In order to verify the effect of proposed sentiment pattern, we conducted experiments of rating inference. Ratings of test reviews is inferred by using a probabilistic method with sentiment features including sentiment patterns extracted from training reviews. As a result, it is shown that the result of rating inference with sentiment patterns are more accurate than that without sentiment patterns.

Sentiment analysis incorporates natural language processing and artificial intelligence and has evolved as an important research area. Sentiment analysis on product reviews has been used in widespread applications to improve customer retention and business processes. In this paper, we propose a method for performing an intensified sentiment analysis on customer product reviews. The method involves the extraction of two feature sets from each of the given customer product reviews, a set of acoustic features (representing emotions) and a set of lexical features (representing sentiments). These sets are then combined and used in a supervised classifier to predict the sentiments of customers. We use an audio speech dataset prepared from Amazon product reviews and downloaded from the YouTube portal for the purposes of our experimental evaluations.

Recently, a big text data has been produced by users, an opinion mining to analyze information and opinion about users is becoming a hot issue. Of the opinion mining, especially a sentiment analysis is a study for analysing emotions such as a positive, negative, happiness, sadness, and so on analysing personal opinions or emotions for commercial products, social issues and opinions of politician. To analyze the sentiment analysis, previous studies used a mapping method setting up a distribution of emotions using two dimensions composed of a valence and arousal. But previous studies set up a distribution of emotions arbitrarily. In order to solve the problem, we composed a distribution of 12 emotions through carrying out a survey using Korean emotion words list. Also, certain emotional states on two dimension overlapping multiple emotions, we proposed a selection method with Roulette wheel method using a selection probability. The proposed method shows to classify a text into emotion extracting emotion terms from a text.

The studies of opinion mining or sentiment analysis have been the focus with social web proliferation. Sentiment analysis requires sentiment resources to decide its polarity. In the existing sentiment analysis, they have been built resources designed with intensity of sentiment polarity and decided polarity of opinion using the ones. In this paper, I will present sentiment categories for not only polarity of opinion but also the basis of positive/negative opinion. I will define psychological emotions to primary sentiments for the reasonable classification. And I will extract the informations of sentiment from social web texts for the actual distribution of sentiments in social web. Re-classifying primary sentiments based on extracted sentiment information, I will organize sentiment categories for the social web. In this paper, I will present 23 categories of sentiment by using proposed method.

Emotional analysis is an application of opinion mining that analyzes opinions and tendencies of people appearing in unstructured text. Recently, emotional analysis of social media has attracted attention, but social media contains newly-created words and slang, so it is not easy to analyze with existing emotional analysis. In this study, I design a new emotional analysis system to solve these problems. The proposed system is possible to analyze various emotions as well as positive and negative in social media including newly-created words and slang. First, I collect newly-created words and slang related to emotions that appear in social media. Then, expand the existing emotional model and use it to quantify the degree of sentiment in emotional words. Also, a new sentiment dictionary is constructed by reflecting the degree of sentiment. Finally, I design an emotional analysis system that applies an sentiment dictionary that includes newly-created words and an extended emotional model.

A hotspot is a spatial pattern that properties or events of spaces are densely revealed in a particular area. Whereas location information is easily captured with increasing use of mobile devices, so is not our emotion unless asking directly through a survey. Tweet provides a good way of analyzing such spatial sentiment, but relevant research is hard to find. Therefore, we analyzed hotspots of emotion in the twitter using spatial autocorrelation. 10,142 tweets and related GPS data were extracted. Sentiment of tweets was classified into good or bad with a support vector machine algorithm. We used Moran's I and Getis-Ord $G_i^*$ for global and local spatial autocorrelation. Some hotspots were found significant and drawn on Seoul metropolitan area map. These results were found very similar to an earlier conducted official survey of happiness index.

User-created text data are increasing rapidly caused by development of social media. In opinion mining, User's opinions are extracted by analyzing user's text. A primary goal of sentiment analysis as a branch of opinion mining is to extract user's opinions from a text that is required to build a list of emotion terms. In this paper, we built a list of emotion terms to analyse a sentiment of social media using Facebook as a representative social media. We collected data from Facebook and selected a emotion terms, and measured the dimensions of valence and activation through a survey. As a result, we built a list of 267 emotion terms including the dimension of valence and activation.
