Abstract

We address in this paper the adaptation problem in sentiment classification. As we know, available labeled data required by sentiment classifiers does not always exist. Given a set of labeled data from different domains and a collection of unlabeled data of the target domain, it would be interesting to determine which subset of those domains has a feature distribution similar to the target domain. In this way, in the absence of labeled data for a particular target domain, it would be plausible to make use of the labeled data corresponding to the most similar domains.
