Abstract

In recent times, people share their opinions, ideas through social networking site, electronic media etc. Different organizations always want to find public opinions about their products and services. Individual consumers also want to know the opinions from existing users before purchasing product. Sentiment analysis is the computational treatment of user’s opinions, sentiments and subjectivity of text. In this paper we propose a framework for sentiment analysis using R software which can analyze sentiment of users on Twitter data using Twitter API. Our methodology involves collection of data from Twitter, its pre-processing and followed by a lexicon based approach to analyze user’s sentiment.
