Sentiment Analysis using DistilBERT

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference PaperResearch

Abstract

Transformers is an architecture that performs well in NLP task. To understand and improve its performance on sentiment analysis, DistilBERT is employed as the base model. Sentiment analysis is a process that extracts subjective information from textual data and categorizes them into different classes. The classification classes may include polarity (positive, neutral, negative) or emotions (happy, sad, angry). In addition, multiple techniques such as fine tuning, regularization and hyperparameter tuning are applied to improve the performance of the model. The proposed solution acquired an accuracy score of 85.41% on Internet Movie Database (IMDB) dataset and 86.59% on Customer Reviews (CR) dataset.
