Text Mining and Sentiment Analysis

 

Text mining is the process of analyzing and filtering relatable text from many forums such as feedback forms, Facebook posts, Tweets, Instagram posts, and any other medium used by a person to express themselves. Sentiment analysis stems from text mining. After the text is filtered, sentiment analysis is used to determine the attitude of a speaker or writer. Sentiment analysis is crucial to data analytics because it is a form of data analytics. Many companies text mine and collect data and sentiment analysis analyzes the collected data to make good use of the data.

Text mining and sentiment analysis relates to many topics discussed in the MIS2502 Data Analytics course. One of the programs taught in the Data Analytics course is R Studio. This program provides visuals based on data sheets. A few visuals we generated were histograms and decision trees. Sentiment analysis can be used to generate decision trees as once the data is collected, it can be broken down into different decisions and the percentage of selecting that decision. 

One example of how text mining and sentiment analysis is applied in practice is with R Studio. The data is collected on an excel sheet through text mining. Then it is imported into R Studio. Thereafter, a script is written to generate a decision tree. For example, the decision is what genre is preferred most when selecting to watch a movie.  All the genres are listed on the excel sheet along with the data of which genres consumers selected. Then, R Studio generates a decision tree based on the written script with how likely consumers are to select genres whether it be based on previous reviews and ratings. This is all generated because of the sentiment analysis on generated from the reviews and rating collected through text mining.
