The opening post



Sentiment analysis is the task of predicting opinion/sentiment in text


My exploration in sentiment analysis and opinion mining began in 2009 and continues till date. It is a fascinating field that touches three areas of research: psychology, linguistics and computer science. In addition to useful applications, sentiment analysis also finds its roots firmly into the classic Turing test presented by Alan Turing in 1950.

I start this blog with multiple intentions:
1) Publish my notes on papers that I read. It's been for ever that I wanted one place to put it - and find it.
2) Put out fundamental content on sentiment analysis and opinion mining.

Ciao!
