| Abstract | The internet and the Web 2.0 gave rise to a wide variety of user generated content. This caused a massive growth in the amount and availability of opinionated information. This collection of complex, unstructured information is often referred as Big Data. A common practical application of such Big Data is social media sentiment analysis. The general aim of sentiment analysis is to determine/extract the opinion contained within a piece of text. A very active line of work focuses on the application of existing machine learning methods to sentiment analysis problems, for example support vector machine, which is a popular kernel method for text classification. This paper focuses on sequence kernels, which have been successfully employed for various natural language processing tasks including sentiment analysis. There have been developments in advanced methods for combining multiple information sources in a single kernel function - in particular the factored sequence kernel, which is a natural fit for text classification tasks, due to each element in a piece of text having other linguistic dimensions or factors. This paper proposes an extension of the gap-weighted soft-matching factored sequence kernel that is not only proportional to the number of factors considered but also proportional to the number of total matching factors. This allows the kernel to make a stronger distinction between composite sub sequences where only a single feature is matched and where more (or all) features are matched - that is not always possible through weighting. We make use of a tridimensional representation where each sentence is a composite sequence of its words, its part-of-speech tags, and its sentiment features. We evaluate the impact of the proposed methodology on two sentiment classification tasks - subjectivity and polarity classification. We perform a series of 10 fold cross validation experiments on two publicly available corpuses. Our experimental results show that our approach surpasses the original factored sequence kernel in almost every experiment, opening the way for future research on other extensions to the factored kernel. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
