Abstract

As an important medium used to describe events, the short text is effective to convey emotions and communicate affective states. In this paper, we proposed a classification method based on probabilistic topic model, which greatly improve the performance of sentimental categorization methods on short text. To solve the problems of sparsity and context-dependency, we extract hidden topics behind the text and associate different words by the same topic. Evaluation on sentiment detection of short text verified the effectiveness of the proposed method.
