Abstract

We investigate the effectiveness of both the standard evaluation measures and the opinion component for topical opinion retrieval. We analyze how relevance is affected by opinions by perturbing relevance ranking by the outcomes of opinion-only classifiers built by Monte Carlo sampling. Topical opinion rankings are obtained by either re-ranking or filtering the documents of a first-pass retrieval of topic relevance.

The proposed approach establishes the correlation between the accuracy and the precision of the classifier and the performance of the topical opinion retrieval. Among other results, it is possible to assess the effectiveness of the opinion component by comparing the effectiveness of the relevance baseline with the topical opinion ranking.

A unified relevance model for opinion retrieval
CIKM '09: Proceedings of the 18th ACM conference on Information and knowledge management

Representing the information need is the greatest challenge for opinion retrieval. Typical queries for opinion retrieval are composed of either just content words, or content words with a small number of cue "opinion" words. Both are inadequate for ...
Improve the effectiveness of the opinion retrieval and opinion polarity classification
CIKM '08: Proceedings of the 17th ACM conference on Information and knowledge management

Opinion retrieval is a document retrieving and ranking process. A relevant document must be relevant to the query and contain opinions toward the query. Opinion polarity classification is an extension of opinion retrieval. It classifies the retrieved ...
A generation model to unify topic relevance and lexicon-based sentiment for opinion retrieval
