Abstract

As more and more users express their opinions on many topics on Twitter, the sentiments contained in these opinions are becoming a valuable source of data for politicians, researchers, producers, and celebrities. These sentiments significantly affect the decision-making process for users when they assess policies, plan events, design products, etc. Therefore, users need a method that can aid them in making decisions based on the sentiments contained in tweets. Many studies have attempted to address this problem with a variety of methods. However, these methods have not mined the level of users’ satisfaction with objects related to specific topics, nor have they analyzed the level of users’ satisfaction with that topic as a whole. This paper proposes a decision-making support method to deal with the aforementioned limitations by combining object sentiment analysis with data mining on a binary decision tree. The results prove the efficacy of the proposed approach in terms of the error ratio and received information.
