Abstract

An authoring assistant includes a parser which automatically identifies opinion expressions in input text. The text may include an author's review of an item, such as a product or service. A computer-implemented opinion review component generates an analysis of the text, which is based on the identified opinion expressions. The opinion review component computes an effective opinion of the text as a function of a measure of polarity associated with the identified opinion expressions. A representation generator generates a representation of the analysis for display on an associated user interface. The representation of the analysis includes a representation of the effective opinion. In the case of a review, the authoring assistant may allow the author to modify the review to reduce incoherence with a rating of the item.
