With Western culture and science been widely accepted in China, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has become a controversial issue. So, it is important to study the public’s sentiment and opinions on TCM. The rapid development of online social network, such as twitter, make it convenient and efficient to sample hundreds of millions of people for the aforementioned sentiment study. To the best of our knowledge, the present work is the first attempt that applies sentiment analysis to the fields of TCM on Sina Weibo (a twitter-like microblogging service in China). In our work, firstly, we collected tweets topics about TCM from Sina Weibo, and labelled the tweets as supporting TCM or opposing TCM automatically based on user tags. Then, a Support Vector Machine classifier was built to predict the sentiment of TCM tweets without tags. Finally, we presented a method to adjust the classifier results. The performance of F-measure attained by our method is 97 %.
