Using relational discourse structure information in Basque sentiment analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a study in sentiment analysis which exploits information of the relational discourse structure in a Basque corpus consisting of literature reviews. The QWN-PPV method was employed to label all the texts at element level and the Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST) was used to extract discourse structure information. The preliminary results show that discourse structure is effective for opinion mining.
