چکیده

This paper describes the system we submitted to the SemEval-2014 shared task on sentiment analysis in Twitter. Our system is a hybrid combination of two system developed for a course project at CMUQatar. We use an SVM classifier and couple a set of features from one system with feature and parameter optimization framework from the second system. Most of the tuning and feature selection efforts were originally aimed at task-A of the shared task. We achieve an F-score of 84.4% for task-A and 62.71% for task-B and the systems are ranked 3rd and 29th respectively.

CMUQ$@$Qatar: Using Rich Lexical Features for Sentiment Analysis on Twitter

In this paper, we describe our system for the Sentiment Analysis of Twitter shared task in SemEval 2014. Our system uses an SVM classifier along with rich set of lexical features to detect the sentiment of a phrase within a tweet (Task-A) and also the sentiment of the whole tweet (TaskB). We start from the lexical features that were used in the 2013 shared tasks, we enhance the underlying lexic...

Proposing a Novel Cost Sensitive Imbalanced Classification Method based on Hybrid of New Fuzzy Cost Assigning Approaches, Fuzzy Clustering and Evolutionary Algorithms

In this paper, a new hybrid methodology is introduced to design a cost-sensitive fuzzy rule-based classification system. A novel cost metric is proposed based on the combination of three different concepts: Entropy, Gini index and DKM criterion. In order to calculate the effective cost of patterns, a hybrid of fuzzy c-means clustering and particle swarm optimization algorithm is utilized. This ...

Stock Price Prediction using Machine Learning and Swarm Intelligence

Background and Objectives: Stock price prediction has become one of the interesting and also challenging topics for researchers in the past few years. Due to the non-linear nature of the time-series data of the stock prices, mathematical modeling approaches usually fail to yield acceptable results. Therefore, machine learning methods can be a promising solution to this problem. Methods: In this...

Feature extraction of hyperspectral images using boundary semi-labeled samples and hybrid criterion

Feature extraction is a very important preprocessing step for classification of hyperspectral images. The linear discriminant analysis (LDA) method fails to work in small sample size situations. Moreover, LDA has poor efficiency for non-Gaussian data. LDA is optimized by a global criterion. Thus, it is not sufficiently flexible to cope with the multi-modal distributed data. We propose a new fea...
