Sentiment analysis

Sentiment analysis is the task of classifying the polarity of a given text.

IMDb

The IMDb dataset is a binary sentiment analysis dataset consisting of 50,000 reviews from the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) labeled as positive or negative. The dataset contains an even number of positive and negative reviews. Only highly polarizing reviews are considered. A negative review has a score ≤ 4 out of 10, and a positive review has a score ≥ 7 out of 10. No more than 30 reviews are included per movie. Models are evaluated based on accuracy.

SST

The Stanford Sentiment Treebank contains of 215,154 phrases with fine-grained sentiment labels in the parse trees of 11,855 sentences in movie reviews. Models are evaluated either on fine-grained (five-way) or binary classification based on accuracy.

Yelp

The Yelp Review dataset consists of more than 500,000 Yelp reviews. There is both a binary and a fine-grained (five-class) version of the dataset. Models are evaluated based on error (1 - accuracy; lower is better).

SemEval

SemEval (International Workshop on Semantic Evaluation) has a specific task for Sentiment analysis. Latest year overview of such task (Task 4) can be reached at: http://www.aclweb.org/anthology/S17-2088

SemEval-2017 Task 4 consists of five subtasks, each offered for both Arabic and English:

  1. Subtask A: Given a tweet, decide whether it expresses POSITIVE, NEGATIVE or NEUTRAL sentiment.

  2. Subtask B: Given a tweet and a topic, classify the sentiment conveyed towards that topic on a two-point scale: POSITIVE vs. NEGATIVE.

  3. Subtask C: Given a tweet and a topic, classify the sentiment conveyed in the tweet towards that topic on a five-point scale: STRONGLYPOSITIVE, WEAKLYPOSITIVE, NEUTRAL, WEAKLYNEGATIVE, and STRONGLYNEGATIVE.

  4. Subtask D: Given a set of tweets about a topic, estimate the distribution of tweets across the POSITIVE and NEGATIVE classes.

  5. Subtask E: Given a set of tweets about a topic, estimate the distribution of tweets across the five classes: STRONGLYPOSITIVE, WEAKLYPOSITIVE, NEUTRAL, WEAKLYNEGATIVE, and STRONGLYNEGATIVE.

Aspect-based sentiment analysis

Sentihood

Sentihood is a dataset for targeted aspect-based sentiment analysis (TABSA), which aims to identify fine-grained polarity towards a specific aspect. The dataset consists of 5,215 sentences, 3,862 of which contain a single target, and the remainder multiple targets.

SemEval-2014 Task 4

The SemEval-2014 Task 4 contains two domain-specific datasets for laptops and restaurants, consisting of over 6K sentences with fine-grained aspect-level human annotations.

The task consists of the following subtasks:

  • Subtask 1: Aspect term extraction

  • Subtask 2: Aspect term polarity

  • Subtask 3: Aspect category detection

  • Subtask 4: Aspect category polarity

Sentiment classification with user and product information

This is the same task on sentiment classification, where the given text is a review, but we are also additionally given (a) the user who wrote the text, and (b) the product which the text is written for. There are three widely used datasets, introduced by Tang et. al (2015): IMDB, Yelp 2013, and Yelp 2014. Evaluation is done using both accuracy and RMSE, but for brevity, we only provide the accuracy here. Please look at the papers for the RMSE values.

Subjectivity analysis

A related task to sentiment analysis is the subjectivity analysis with the goal of labeling an opinion as either subjective or objective.
