Abstract

Sentiment analysis is the technique of determining the point of view, polarity, and intensity of a text. A poll found that 93% of consumers read online evaluations before making a decision. Manually analysing these judgements is challenging. To determine the review's overall sentiment or thinking polarity, sentiment analysis may be employed. This study's goal is to classify product assessment qualities as positive, negative, or neutral. Polarity labelling, feature extraction, and associated descriptor extraction are all included. The suggested method expands on feature-based categorisation by considering the impact of different linguistic hedges. In order to mimic the effects of modifiers, concentrators, and dilators, this technique uses fuzzy functions. The system was put to the test, and the outcomes show how well fuzzy logic based sentiment analysis performs.
