Introduction to Twitter Sentiment
Analysis
Sentiment analysis gauges the emotional tone behind text. For Twitter, it's
crucial for understanding public opinion, brand perception, and market trends.
This analysis helps businesses and researchers alike.

Understanding Public Opinion


Gauge public reaction to events or products.

Brand Monitoring
Track brand mentions and sentiment trends.

Market Research
Understand consumer preferences and opinions.
Overview of Machine Learning Algorithms
Several algorithms excel at sentiment classification. We'll compare Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, and Support Vector Machines (SVM).
Each algorithm offers unique strengths and weaknesses.

Naive Bayes Logistic Regression Support Vector Machines


Simple, efficient, probabilistic classifier. Predicts probability of sentiment. Widely Effective in high-dimensional spaces.
