Sentiment Analysis from Indonesian Twitter Data Using Support Vector Machine And Query Expansion Ranking

Abstract

Sentiment analysis is a computational study of a sentiment opinion and an overflow of feelings expressed in textual form. Twitter has become a popular social network among Indonesians. As a public figure running for president of Indonesia, public opinion is very important to see and consider the popularity of a presidential candidate. Media has become one of the important tools used to increase electability. However, it is not easy to analyze sentiments from tweets on Twitter apps, because it contains unstructured text, especially Indonesian text. The purpose of this research is to classify Indonesian twitter data into positive and negative sentiments polarity using Support Vector Machine and Query Expansion Ranking so that the information contained therein can be extracted and from the observed data can provide useful information for those in need. Several stages in the research include Crawling Data, Data Preprocessing, Term Frequency – Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF), Feature Selection Query Expansion Ranking, and data classification using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) method. To find out the performance of this classification process, it will be entered into a configuration matrix. By using a discussion matrix, the results show that calcification using the proposed reached accuracy and F-measure score in 77% and 68% respectively.
