Abstract

In this paper we present an approach to identify opinion of web users from opinionated texts and to classify web users opinion into positive or negative. Today web users express their opinion using multimodal opinion elements such as opinion phrases, emoticons and short words. These form of multimodal opinion expressions are very popular and are used by a large number of web users to document their opinion. In this paper we use semantic based approach to find users opinion from multimodal opinion elements like phrases, emoticons and short words. Our approach detects these multimodal opinion elements and uses them to obtain semantic orientation scores. These scores are later used to identify users opinion from opinionated texts. Our approach is effective and provides better results compared to other approaches on different data sets comprising of opinion.
