Abstract
To study the problem that the polarity and strength of the sentiment words not in lexicon cannot be calculated and classified effectively by lexicon-based classifiers, the EM-SO algorithm was proposed based on expectation maximization (EM) model for constructing and updating sentiment lexicon. Negative and intensifying components were designed upon semantic orientation calculator (SO-CAL) for capturing the combined effects of appraisal words and their modifiers. Experiments showed that the EM-SO algorithm and designed components outperform SO-CAL for the calculation performance of the polarity and strength of sentiment words on review sets.
