Özet

Sentiment analysis is the Natural Language Processing (NLP) task that aims to classify text to different classes such as positive, negative or neutral. In this paper, we focus on sentiment analysis for Arabic language. Most of the previous works use machine learning techniques combined with hand engineering features to do Arabic sentiment analysis (ASA). More recently, Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) were widely used for this task especially for English languages. In this work, we developed a system called CNN-ASAWR where we investigate the use of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for ASA on 2 datasets: ASTD and SemEval 2017 datasets. We explore the importance of various unsupervised word representations learned from unannotated corpora. Experimental results showed that we were able to outperform the previous state-of-the-art systems on the datasets without using any kind of hand engineering features.
