Aspect terms extraction (ATE), a key subtask for aspect-based sentiment analysis, opinion summarization, and topic modeling aims at extracting grammatical elements (nouns, phrases, and adjectives) from user reviews that reveal the discussed features of the entity under review. These aspect terms are usually the targets of the opinions expressed. Id...

This paper presents Zenon, an affective, multi-modal conversational agent (chatbot) specifically designed for treatment of brain diseases like multiple sclerosis and stroke. Zenon collects information from patients in a non-intrusive way and records user sentiment using two different modalities: text and video. A user-friendly interface is designed...

Sentiment analysis is a fast-accelerating discipline that develops algorithms for knowledge discovery from opinionated content. The challenges however, when it comes to analyzing user reviews are plenty. Bad-quality, informal use of language and lack of labels, are only a few obstacles. Most importantly, users, consciously or subconsciously, use di...

As forecasting becomes more and more appreciated in situations and activities of everyday life that involve prediction and risk assessment, more methods and solutions make their appearance in this exciting arena of uncertainty. However, less is known about what makes a promising or a poor forecast. In this article, we provide a multi-factor analysi...

This commentary introduces a correlation analysis of the top-10 ranked forecasting methods that participated in the M4 forecasting competition. The M competitions attempt to promote and advance research in the field of forecasting by inviting both industry and academia to submit forecasting algorithms to be evaluated over a large corpus of real-wor...

This article reports on a research project carried out to detect and correct tense mistakes that students, who learn English as a Foreign Language, tend to make in their free written production at the stage of secondary education. While writing their compositions, learners mainly locate events along a timeline by means of verb tenses. However, fail...

The ability to accurately understand opinionated content is critical for a large set of applications. Models targeting at learning from such content should overcome the inherent difficulties of the data. We propose a novel hybrid neural network embedded in a deep learning framework that can be used for sentiment classification. Our method consists...

Sentiment analysis is a challenging task that attracted increasing interest during the last years. The availability of online data along with the business interest to keep up with consumer feedback generates a constant demand for online analysis of user-generated content.

This paper examines the connectivity among political networks on Twitter. We explore dynamics inside and between the far right and the far left, as well as the relation between the structure of the network and sentiment. The 2015 Greek political context offers a unique opportunity to investigate political communication in times of political intensi...

The task of opinion mining has attracted interest during the last years. This is mainly due to the vast availability and value of opinions on-line and the easy access of data through conventional or intelligent crawlers. In order to utilize this information, algorithms make exten-sive use of word sets with known polarity. This approach is known as...
