    Sentiment analysis based approaches for understanding user context in Web content
    (2013) Kamath S․, S.S.; Bagalkotkar, A.; Khandelwal, A.; Pandey, S.; Poornima, K.
    In our day to day lives, we highly value the opinions of friends in making decisions about issues like which brand to buy or which movie to watch. With the increasing popularity of blogs, online reviews and social networking sites, the current trend is to look up reviews, expert opinions and discussions on the Web, so that one can make an informed decision. Sentiment analysis, also known as opinion mining is the computational study of opinions, sentiments and emotions expressed in natural language for the purpose of decision making. Sentiment analysis applies natural language processing techniques and computational linguistics to extract information about sentiments expressed by authors and readers about a particular subject, thus helping users in making sense of huge volume of unstructured Web data. Applications like review classification, product review mining and trend prediction benefit from sentiment analysis based techniques. This paper presents a study of different approaches in this field, the state of the art techniques and current research in Sentiment Analysis based approaches for understanding user's context. © 2013 IEEE.

    (2013) Bhat, A.A.; Kamath S․, S.S.
    Research on automated systems for Stock price prediction has gained much momentum in recent years owing to its potential to yield profits. In this paper, we present an automatic trading system for Nifty for deciding the buying and selling calls for intra-day trading that combines various methods to improve the quality and precision of the prediction. Historical data has been used to implement the various technical indicators and also to train the Neural Network that predicts movement for intra-day Nifty. Further, Sentiment Analysis techniques are applied to popular blog articles written by domain experts and to user comments to find sentiment orientation, so that analysis can be further improved and better prediction accuracy can be achieved. The system makes a prediction for every trading day with these methods to forecast if next day will be a positive day or negative. Further, buy and sell calls for intra-day trading are also decided by the system thus achieving full automation in stock trading. © 2013 IEEE.
