1. Introduction
Emotions are an integral ingredient of human life. Through the visible gestures, it can directly affect the
audience. It is very difficult to comprehend someone’s intention or sentiments only through texts without
any visibility. With the rise of digital era, and with the wide use of mobile, internet, digital media and
social networks, textual communication has turned out to be the main source of communication. Hence,
need has been felt in research community (Pandey et al., 2016) to create a model which can recognize the
sentiments behind the text and can make these digital communications more effective (Li and Wu., 2010;
Pang and Lee, 2008). This study focuses on text mining and sentiment analysis, which are nowadays most
popular methods for language processing. Polarity of emotions and views can be computed using these
models, these models assist to create meaningful insights out of unstructured data. In this study, our main
objectives are the identification of the impact of articles on sharing based on the metadata and to
understand sentiment of movie reviewers in twitter and comparison of different methods of sentimental
analysis. In case study 1, our objective is to find out the relationship between different keywords, shares,
and sentiments, which would help to make strategy for improved online advertising and better
communication with customers. In case study 2, our objective is to predict consumers’ review sentiments,
which would help to provide meaningful insights to improve the campaign tracking, customer-oriented
marketing strategy and brand awareness. During sentimental analysis, our target will be polarity
identification of twitter comments (positive, neutral, or negative) and mining the characteristics of a given
comment to uncover their polarities (Pak and Paroubek, 2010).
