Abstract

Social media sites, namely Facebook and Twitter, have gained popularity in current times. These sites generate huge data that expresses thoughts and opinions of its users on issues. In this context, private individuals become the sources of information through online sharing of opinions and thoughts. These thoughts and opinions can be extracted to show patterns on sentiments of its users. Sentiment analysis, also referred as opinion mining, studies the “opinions, attitudes and emotions” of peoples. Sentiment analysis is a text classification problem, and identifying and extracting the right sentiment from huge data on social media sites are challenge. In this chapter, we presented different approaches to sentiment analysis on social media sites and social media business communication.
