How AI is Making Sentiment Analysis Easy
It's a far more complex way of analyzing how consumers feel about our products and services, using not just simple words but longer sentence fragments. Yes, AI is becoming smart enough to understand the tone of a statement, rather than simply understanding whether certain words within a group of text have a positive or negative connotation. This is incredibly impactful for companies seeking to optimize their message, improve customer engagement, or even identify top influencers in their customer base. The possibilities of sentiment analysis are incredibly far-reaching. The types of information that AI can gather from both unstructured data and affective computing in sentiment analysis are huge.
Semantic Similarity To Improve Question Understanding in a Virtual Patient
Laleye, Frรฉjus A. A., Blaniรฉ, Antonia, Brouquet, Antoine, Behnamou, Dan, de Chalendar, Gaรซl
Abstract--In medicine, a communicating virtual patient or doctor allows students to train in medical diagnosis and dev elop skills to conduct a medical consultation. In this paper, we describe a conversational virtual standardized patient sy stem to allow medical students to simulate a diagnosis strategy o f an abdominal surgical emergency. We exploited the semantic properties captured by distributed word representations t o search for similar questions in the virtual patient dialogue syste m. We created two dialogue systems that were evaluated on dataset s collected during tests with students. The first system based on handcrafted rules obtains 92.29% as F 1-score on the studied clinical case while the second system that combines rules an d semantic similarity achieves 94.88%. It represents an error reduction of 9.70% as compared to the rules-only-based system. The medical diagnosis practice is traditionally bedside taught. Theoretical courses are supplemented by internshi ps in hospital services. The medical student observes the practi ce of doctors and interns and practices himself under their contr ol. This type of learning has the disadvantage to confront immediately the medical student with complex situations withou t practical training (technical and human) beforehand.
Model Deployment for Data Scientists Using TensorFlow: Part 1 - Nightfall AI
In the world of machine learning, model deployment is a crucial piece of the puzzle. While data scientists excel at other parts of the pipeline, deploying machine learning models tends to fall under the umbrella of software engineering or IT operations. And for good reason--successful deployments require a myriad of complex tasks, including building infrastructure, implementing APIs, load balancing, and integrating with data pipelines. We'll briefly walk you through a basic model deployment example by picking out tools and planning out an approach to construct a simple sentiment classification model. By the end of this post you will have the tools to serve your deep learning (DL) models via an API.
Event Outcome Prediction using Sentiment Analysis and Crowd Wisdom in Microblog Feeds
Iyer, Rahul Radhakrishnan, Zheng, Ronghuo, Li, Yuezhang, Sycara, Katia
--Sentiment Analysis of microblog feeds has attracted considerable interest in recent times. Most of the current work focuses on tweet sentiment classification. But not much work has been done to explore how reliable the opinions of the mass (crowd wisdom) in social network microblogs such as twitter are in predicting outcomes of certain events such as election debates. In this work, we investigate whether crowd wisdom is useful in predicting such outcomes and whether their opinions are influenced by the experts in the field. We work in the domain of multi-label classification to perform sentiment classification of tweets and obtain the opinion of the crowd. This learnt sentiment is then used to predict outcomes of events such as: US Presidential Debate winners, Grammy A ward winners, Super Bowl Winners. We find that in most of the cases, the wisdom of the crowd does indeed match with that of the experts, and in cases where they don't (particularly in the case of debates), we see that the crowd's opinion is actually influenced by that of the experts. I NTRODUCTION Over the past few years, microblogs have become one of the most popular online social networks. Microblogging websites have evolved to become a source of varied kinds of information. This is due to the nature of microblogs: people post real-time messages about their opinions and express sentiment on a variety of topics, discuss current issues, complain, etc. Twitter is one such popular microblogging service where users create status messages (called "tweets"). With over 400 million tweets per day on Twitter, microblog users generate large amount of data, which cover very rich topics ranging from politics, sports to celebrity gossip. Because the user generated content on microblogs covers rich topics and expresses sentiment/opinions of the mass, mining and analyzing this information can prove to be very beneficial both to the industrial and the academic community. Tweet classification has attracted considerable attention because it has become very important to analyze peoples' sentiments and opinions over social networks.
Artificial Intelligence Development Best Software Company - Vegavid
Sentiment Analysis is a valuable apparatus to discover not only what your clients need dependent on their activities on the internet or their search history, but also by processing their words and searching for their conclusion on a specific subject or theme. You may realize that your client looks for a specific thing on your platform, but how would you know how they truly feel about your customer services? Sentiment analysis can enable you to discover their needs and preferences.

Enriching Existing Conversational Emotion Datasets with Dialogue Acts using Neural Annotators
Bothe, Chandrakant, Weber, Cornelius, Magg, Sven, Wermter, Stefan
The recognition of emotion and dialogue acts enrich conversational analysis and help to build natural dialogue systems. Emotion makes us understand feelings and dialogue acts reflect the intentions and performative functions in the utterances. However, most of the textual and multi-modal conversational emotion datasets contain only emotion labels but not dialogue acts. To address this problem, we propose to use a pool of various recurrent neural models trained on a dialogue act corpus, with or without context. These neural models annotate the emotion corpus with dialogue act labels and an ensemble annotator extracts the final dialogue act label. We annotated two popular multi-modal emotion datasets: IEMOCAP and MELD. We analysed the co-occurrence of emotion and dialogue act labels and discovered specific relations. For example, Accept/Agree dialogue acts often occur with the Joy emotion, Apology with Sadness, and Thanking with Joy. We make the Emotional Dialogue Act (EDA) corpus publicly available to the research community for further study and analysis.
KRM-based Dialogue Management
Qu, Wenwu, Chi, Xiaoyu, Zheng, Wei
A KRM-based dialogue management (DM) is proposed using to implement human-computer dialogue system in complex scenarios. KRM-based DM has a well description ability and it can ensure the logic of the dialogue process. Then a complex application scenario in the Internet of Things (IOT) industry and a dialogue system implemented based on the KRM-based DM will be introduced, where the system allows enterprise customers to customize topics and adapts corresponding topics in the interaction process with users. The experimental results show that the system can complete the interactive tasks well, and can effectively solve the problems of topic switching, information inheritance between topics, change of dominance.
