While many methods exist for identifying sentiment in OSNs such as communication pattern mining and classification based on emoticon and parts of speech, the majority of them utilize a suboptimal batch mode learning approach when analyzing a large amount of real time data. As an alternative we present a stream algorithm using Modified Balanced Winnow for sentiment analysis on OSNs. Tested on three real-world network datasets, the performance of our sentiment predictions is close to that of batch learning with the ability to detect important features dynamically for sentiment analysis in data streams. These top features reveal key words important to the analysis of sentiment.展开更多
