Abstract
Twitter Sentiment analysis, also refers as opinion mining, is a subset of machine learning
task where we want to determine which is the general sentiment of a given document. Using
machine learning techniques and natural language processing we can extract the subjective
information of a document and try to classify it according to its polarity such as positive,
neutral or negative. It is a useful analysis since we could possibly determine the overall
opinion about a selling object, or predict stock markets for a given company like, if most
people think positive about it, possibly its stock markets will increase, and so on. Sentiment
analysis is actually far from to be solved since the language is very complex
(objectivity/subjectivity, negation, vocabulary, grammar) .
In this project I focus on classifying tweets from Twitter into “positive” or “negative”
sentiment by building a model based on probabilities. Twitter is a microblogging website
where people can share their feelings quickly and spontaneously by sending a tweet limited
by 140 characters. You can directly address a tweet to someone by adding the target sign “@”
or participate to a topic by adding an has tag “#” to your tweet. With the help of twitter
sentimental analysis, we will able to extract data and evaluate that data in order to perform
sentimental analysis.
EXISTING SYSTEM:-
The state-of-the-art approaches for solving this problem always adopt the target-independent
strategy, which may assign irrelevant sentiments to the given target. Moreover, the state-of-
the-art approaches only take the tweet to be classified into consideration when classifying the
sentiment; they ignore its context (i.e., related tweets). However, because tweets are usually
short and more ambiguous, sometimes it is not enough to consider only the current tweet for
sentiment classification. In this paper, we propose to improve target-dependent Twitter
sentiment classification by 1) incorporating target-dependent features; and 2) taking related
tweets into consideration. According to the experimental results, our approach greatly
improves the performance of target-dependent sentiment classification.
PROPOSED SYSTEM:-
This project will be helpful to the companies, political parties as well as the common people.
It will be helpful to political parties for reviewing the program that they are going to do or the
program they have performed. similarly, companies will also get a review of the new
products on newly released hardware or software. Also, movie makers can take a review of
the current movie. By analysing the new twitter Sentiment analysis can get results on how
positive or negative or neutral are people about it
MODULES:-
Collecting – in this stage data to be analysed is crawled from various sources like
Blogs, Social networks (Twitter, MySpace, etc.) depending upon the area of
application.:
Pre-processing – In this stage, the acquired data is cleaned and made ready for
feeding it into the classifier. Cleaning includes extraction of keywords and symbols.
For instance – Emoticons are the smiley used in textual form to represent emotions
e.g. “:-)”, “:)”, “=)”, “:D”, “:-(“, “:(“, “=(“, “;(“, etc.. Correcting the all uppercase and
all lowercase to a common case, removing the non-English (or proffered language
texts), removing un-necessary white spaces and tabs, etc.
Training Data – A hand-tagged collection of data is prepared by most commonly
used crowd-sourcing method. This data is the fuel for the classifier; it will be fed to
the algorithm for learning purpose.
Classification – This is the heart of the whole technique. Depending upon the
requirement of the application SVM or Naïve bayes is deployed for analysis. The
classifier (after completing the training) is ready to be deployed to the real time
tweets/text for sentiment extraction purpose.
Results – Results are plotted based on the type of representation selected i.e. charts,
graphs, etc. Performance tuning is done prior to the release of the algorithm

Conclusion
Twitter is a demandable micro blogging service which has been built to discover what is
happening at any moment of time and anywhere in the world. In the survey, we found that
social media related features can be used to predict sentiment in Twitter. We will use three
machine learning algorithms which will contribute to outperform three models namely
unigram, feature based model and tree kernel model by using Weka. So, our proposed system
concludes the sentiments of tweets which are extracted from twitter. The difficulty increases
with the nuance and complexity of opinions expressed. Product reviews, etc are relatively
easy. Books, movies, art, music are more difficult. We can also implement features like
emoticons, neutralization, negation handling and capitalization/internationalization as they
have recently become a huge part of the internet.
