Monday Computer Science Seminar (14.12.2023 – Thursday) – online

TITLE:
Sentiment Analysis (SA) of the Bosnian Language (the overview of contributions to SA in Bosnian)

ABSTRACT:
On the seminar, the contributions to Sentiment Analysis in the Bosnian language will be presented. Insights into the lexicon creation process will be provided first, followed by the discussion of ideas for annotating and ensuring lexicon coverage. The speaker will introduce the MERI (Modifying Emotion-related Intensity) equation for sentiment calculation and demonstrate how Negation clues and AnAwords (Affirmative and non-affirmative) words influence the overall sentiment value of the text through two models they developed: BoSa and BOSentiment. Additionally, a comparison of these models with other ML techniques and CNN will be presented.
