Abstract

Systems and methods for sentiment lexicon expansion receive at least a domain specific corpus comprising a plurality of words, and a generic sentiment lexicon; parse the plurality of words in the domain specific corpus into a plurality of dependency relations; identify, using one or more syntactic dependency rules and at least one of the plurality of dependency relations, a set of one or more sentiment candidates in the domain specific corpus; filter from the set of one or more sentiment candidates any sentiment candidate having an expected performance below a predefined threshold; sample the filtered set of one or more sentiment candidates to be used in a qualitative evaluation; and, for each sentiment candidate that passes the qualitative evaluation, add the sentiment candidate to the generic sentiment lexicon.
