AuthorSentiment analysis is one of the prominent research areas in data mining and knowledge discovery, which has proven to be an effective technique for monitoring public opinion. The big data era with a high volume of data generated by a variety of sources has provided enhanced opportunities for utilizing sentiment analysis in various domains. In order to take best advantage of the high volume of data for accurate sentiment analysis, it is essential to clean the data before the analysis, as irrelevant or redundant data will hinder extracting valuable information. In this paper, we propose a hybrid feature selection algorithm to improve the performance of sentiment analysis tasks. Our proposed sentiment analysis approach builds a binary classification model based on two feature selection techniques: an entropy-based metric and an evolutionary algorithm. We have performed comprehensive experiments in two different domains using a benchmark dataset, Stanford Sentiment Treebank, and a real-world dataset we have created based on World Health Organization (WHO) public speeches regarding COVID-19. The proposed feature selection model is shown to achieve significant performance improvements in both datasets, increasing classification accuracy for all utilized machine learning and text representation technique combinations. Moreover, it achieves over 70% reduction in feature size, which provides efficiency in computation time and space.

PROGRESSIVE CLUSTERING OF MANIFOLD-MODELED DATA BASED ON TANGENT SPACE VARIATIONS Gokdogan, Gokhan; Vural, Elif (2017-09-28) An important research topic of the recent years has been to understand and analyze manifold-modeled data for clustering and classification applications. Most clustering methods developed for data of non-linear and low-dimensional structure are based on local linearity assumptions. However, clustering algorithms based on locally linear representations can tolerate difficult sampling conditions only to some extent, and may fail for scarcely sampled data manifolds or at high-curvature regions. In this paper, w...
Integrating machine learning techniques into robust data enrichment approach and its application to gene expression data Erdogdu, Utku; TAN, MEHMET; Alhajj, Reda; Polat, Faruk; Rokne, Jon; Demetrick, Douglas (Inderscience Publishers, 2013-01-01) The availability of enough samples for effective analysis and knowledge discovery has been a challenge in the research community, especially in the area of gene expression data analysis. Thus, the approaches being developed for data analysis have mostly suffered from the lack of enough data to train and test the constructed models. We argue that the process of sample generation could be successfully automated by employing some sophisticated machine learning techniques. An automated sample generation framewo...
Data mining analysis of economic indicators of countries Güngör, Erdem; Yozgatlıgil, Ceylan; Department of Statistics (2020-8) Data Mining is becoming a famous analysis day by day to reveal the hidden information within big data. In the study, we use data mining techniques on the economic indicators of the countries. The four data mining techniques are to be implemented on the dataset. Making homogenous groups of the countries whose economic characteristics are similar are obtained by the Clustering Algorithm. After the clustering algorithm is performed, we pass to Association Rule Data Mining to investigate the most exported produ...
Deep learning approach for laboratory mice grimace scaling Eral, Mustafa; Halıcı, Uğur; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2016) Deep learning is extremely attractive research topic in pattern recognition and machine learning areas. Applications in speech recognition, natural language processing, and machine vision fields gained huge acceleration in performance by employing deep learning. In this thesis, deep learning is used for medical purposes in order to scale pain degree of drug stimulated mice by examining facial grimace. For this purpose each frame in the videos in the training set were scaled manually by experts according to ...
Activity prediction from auto-captured lifelog images Belli, Kader; Akbaş, Emre; Department of Computer Engineering (2019) The analysis of lifelogging has generated great interest among data scientists because large-scale, multidimensional and multimodal data are generated as a result of lifelogging activities. In this study, we use the NTCIR Lifelog dataset where daily lives of two users are monitored for a total of 90 days, and archived as a set of minute-based records consisting of details like semantic location, body measurements, listening history, and user activity. In addition, images which are captured automatically by ...
