Emerging Technologies in Data Mining and Information Security

Abstract

Natural language processing (NLP) is a booming field in this era of data, where almost all businesses and organizations have access to many review sites, social media, and e-commerce websites. Recently, deep learning models have shown state-of-the-art results in NLP tasks. With the help of complex models like long-short term memory, various problems such as vanishing gradient problem have been diminished and new models like the attention model or aspect embedding increases accuracy. These made a drastic change in the field of sentiment analysis and made it more business-oriented, like most of the big business organizations, for example, Amazon and Flipkart, where it is used for analyzing details about their customer review. Some researchers have shown us a way to not even using complex models like LSTM we can do so, even better with adding gating mechanism to our well-known CNN. Watching all of these, we are going to do a brief review of many technologies discovered by many scientists across the world and focus on some of the state-of-the-art works done in the domain of sentiment analysis.
