Kecenderungan Tanggapan Masyarakat terhadap Ekonomi Indonesia berbasis Lexicon Based Sentiment Analysis

Abstract

Sentiment analysis aims to find opinions, identify sentiments expressed, and then classify their polarity values. One method of sentiment analysis is Lexicon-based. This study implements the Lexicon based sentiment analysis to analyze the polarity of public responses to the topic of the development of "the Indonesian economy". The dataset is collected from social media from 2017 to 2019. Preprocessing used is folding cases, deleting newline characters, changing non-standard words, deleting mentions, deleting hashtags, removing URL strings, changing word negation, and translating text into English with TextBlob library. Then extract the sentiment values from adjectives, adverbs, nouns, and verbs found in the text. Based on the results of sentiment analysis, it can be seen that there are 63.6% positive responses from the public to the development of the Indonesian economy, 7.4% negative responses, and 29% neutral.
