Description

Sentiment analysis is a detection of attitude. It is getting information about the feelings, emotions, sentiments, views or attitude of the person based on the comment he/she has written or uploaded on any data source (e.g., reviews, forum discussions, blogs, micro blogs, Twitter and other social networks). Others' opinions can be very important in making decisions between various alternatives (Erik et al., 2013). People depended on the communication with friends, relatives and other people like consultants for the opinion on the product they wanted to buy. But with the increase in the influence and use of social media and other e-commerce websites, people now rely upon the reviews of the products along with the opinions of their friends and relatives. Now these reviews and opinions are analyzed and extracted using sentiment mining.
