Text processing and analysis are crucial in understanding emotions and categorizing content. Sentiment analysis and text classification help businesses gauge customer feedback and organize information. These techniques face challenges like language ambiguity and sarcasm detection.
Preprocessing steps like tokenization and vectorization prepare text for deep learning models. CNNs and LSTMs, along with attention mechanisms and transfer learning, power sentiment analysis. Performance metrics like accuracy and F1 score help evaluate model effectiveness.

Sentiment analysis determines emotional tone or attitude in text used for customer feedback analysis and social media monitoring
Text classification assigns predefined categories to documents applied in spam detection and topic categorization
Sentiment analysis focuses on emotional content while text classification deals with broader categorization tasks
Challenges include ambiguity in language, sarcasm detection, and handling multiple languages (English, Spanish, Mandarin)
Text preprocessing for classification
Tokenization breaks text into individual words or subwords
Lowercasing converts all text to lowercase for consistency
Remove punctuation and special characters
Handle stop words by removing or keeping common words (the, and, is)
Stemming or lemmatization reduces words to base form (running → run)
Text vectorization techniques:
Bag of Words (BoW) represents text as word frequency vector
TF-IDF weights words based on importance in document and corpus
Word embeddings provide dense vector representations (Word2Vec, GloVe)
Character-level encodings represent text as character sequences
Handle out-of-vocabulary words and pad/truncate sequences for fixed-length input
Deep learning models for sentiment
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for text:
1D convolutions process sequence data
Pooling operations (max pooling, average pooling) reduce dimensionality
Multiple filter sizes capture different n-gram patterns
Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks:
Recurrent architecture processes sequential data
Gating mechanisms (input gate, forget gate, output gate) control information flow
Bidirectional LSTMs capture context from both directions
Embedding layers learn word representations
Dropout and regularization prevent overfitting
Attention mechanisms focus on important input parts
Transfer learning fine-tunes pre-trained models (BERT, GPT)
Hyperparameter tuning optimizes learning rate, batch size, and network architecture
Performance metrics in text analysis
Confusion matrix shows true positives, true negatives, false positives, false negatives
Accuracy measures overall prediction correctness: A c c u r a c y = T P + T N T P + T N + F P + F N Accuracy = \frac{TP + TN}{TP + TN + FP + FN} A cc u r a cy = TP + TN + FP + FN TP + TN
Precision calculates proportion of correct positive predictions: P r e c i s i o n = T P T P + F P Precision = \frac{TP}{TP + FP} P rec i s i o n = TP + FP TP
Recall determines proportion of actual positives identified: R e c a l l = T P T P + F N Recall = \frac{TP}{TP + FN} R ec a ll = TP + FN TP
F1 score computes harmonic mean of precision and recall: F 1 = 2 ∗ P r e c i s i o n ∗ R e c a l l P r e c i s i o n + R e c a l l F1 = 2 * \frac{Precision * Recall}{Precision + Recall} F 1 = 2 ∗ P rec i s i o n + R ec a ll P rec i s i o n ∗ R ec a ll
ROC curve and AUC evaluate binary classification performance
Cross-validation techniques (k-fold, stratified k-fold) assess model generalization
Handle class imbalance through oversampling, undersampling, or adjusting class weights
