Background and Objectives: With the extensive web applications, review sentiment classification has attracted increasing interest among text mining works. Traditional approaches did not indicate multiple relationships connecting words while emphasizing the preprocessing phase and data reduction techniques, making a huge performance difference in classification. Methods: This study suggests a model as an efficient model for sentiment classification combining preprocessing techniques, sampling methods, feature selection methods, and ensemble supervised classification to increase the classification performance. In the feature selection phase of the proposed model, we applied n-grams, which is a computational method, to optimize the feature selection procedure by extracting features based on the relationships of the words. Then, the best-selected feature through the particle swarm optimization algorithm to optimize the feature selection procedure by iteratively trying to improve feature selection. Results: In the experimental study, a comprehensive range of comparative experiments conducted to assess the effectiveness of the proposed model using the best in the literature on Twitter datasets. The highest performance of the proposed model obtains 97.33, 92.61, 97.16, and 96.23% in terms of precision, accuracy, recall, and f-measure, respectively. Conclusion: The proposed model classifies the sentiment of tweets and online reviews through ensemble methods. Besides, two sampling techniques had applied in the preprocessing phase. The results confirmed the superiority of the proposed model over state-of-the-art systems.======================================================================================================Copyrights©2020 The author(s).

Background and Objectives: Twitter Sentiment Classification is one of the most popular fields in information retrieval and text mining. Millions of people of the world intensity use social networks like Twitter. It supports users to publish tweets to tell what they are thinking about topics. There are numerous web sites built on the Internet presenting Twitter. The user can enter a sentiment target and seek for tweets containing positive, negative, or neutral opinions. This is remarkable for consumers to investigate the products before purchase automatically. Methods: This paper suggests a model for sentiment classification. The goal of this model is to investigate what is the role of n-grams and sampling techniques in Sentiment Classification application using an ensemble method on Twitter datasets. Also, it examines both binary and multiple classifications, which are classified datasets into positive, negative, or neutral classes. Results: Twitter Classification is an outstanding problem, which has very few free resources and not available due to modified authorization status. However, all Twitter datasets are not labeled and free, except for our applied dataset. We reveal that the combination of ensemble methods, sampling techniques, and n-grams can improve the accuracy of Twitter Sentiment Classification. Conclusion: The results confirmed the superiority of the proposed model over state-of-the-art systems. The highest results obtained in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, and f-measure.======================================================================================================Copyrights©2020 The author(s).
