Abstract

The increasing popularity of social media takes the attention of the internet users across the word wide to discuss and share the events/things they are interested on social media blogs/sites. Consequently, an explosive increase of social media data spread on the web has been promoting the development of analysis of social media news depending on the news or events, the latest trend of the social big data. The sentiment analysis of news event becomes an important research area for many real-world applications, such as public opinion monitoring for government and news recommendation of news websites.  In this paper, we perform sentiment analysis for news events based on posts, and comments of the users upon a news event. We use two data mining techniques namely naïve Bayesian and support vector machine to reveal what the polarity/meaning of the post is such as positive, negative or polarity. There are two main stages in performing this task called training and testing phases. The first phase uses the training datasets of the news event and the second phase use newly inputted data of the user to classify the polarity of the user news posts or comments. We then execute the experiments for each algorithm and then collect the experimental results and compare them with accuracy with known and unknown test data with different volumes of tweet transactions. According to the results, both of them can accurately reveal the opinions of the social network users.
