Sentiment Analysis

Sentiment analysis refers to the use of natural language processing to systematically study subjective information and affective states. It involves identifying and quantifying opinions, emotions and attitudes from text. There are three main approaches: rules-based systems use manually defined rules, automatic systems rely on machine learning, and hybrid systems combine both. While sentiment analysis is widely used, it faces challenges from context, sarcasm, comparisons and more. Its applications include social media monitoring, customer service, marketing research and clinical medicine.

Hybrid systems: combine both rule-based and
automatic approaches

fed these predefined lists, it will count
