Abstract
Intent mining is a special kind of document analysis whose goal is to assess the attitude of the document author with respect to a given subject. Opinion mining is a kind of intent mining where the attitude is a positive or negative opinion. Techniques based on extracting dependency relations have proven more effective for intent mining than traditional bag-of-word approaches. We propose an approach to opinion mining which uses frequent dependency sub-trees as features for classifying documents and extracting opinions. We developed an efficient multi-language dependency parser to analyze documents and extracting dependency relations which can be used on large scale collections. An opinion retrieval system has been built and is being tested on the TREC 2006 Blog Opinion task.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
