M. Ali Fauzi

Abstract


Sentiment analysis become very useful since the rise of social media and online review website and, thus, the requirement of analyzing their sentiment in an effective and efficient way. We can consider sentiment analysis as text classification problem with sentiment as its categories. In this study, we explore the use of Random Forest for sentiment classification in Indonesian language. We also explore the use of bag of words (BOW) features with some term weighting methods variation such as Binary TF, Raw TF, Logarithmic TF and TF.IDF. The experiment result showed that sentiment analysis system using random forest give good performance with average OOB score 0.829. The result also depicted that all of the four term weighting method has competitive result. Since the score difference is not very significant, we can say that the term weighting method variation in study has no remarkable effect for sentiment analysis using Random Forest.
