| Description: | This thesis utilizes sentiment classification task within the field of artificial intelligence for financial news using the combination of machine learning, linguistics, and statistical methods. The motivation for this approach comes from human emotion and vital information that lies in the financial news like news reports and impacts on the market. In recent years, a huge amount of this information is accessible for investment and research analysis in a text format where investors and researchers can simply get access to the desired information through a variety of channels on the Internet. Despite the studies conducted in automated sentiment classification of financial news, there are still challenges in some parts of text mining and financial news classification that concerns feature extraction, feature selection, and classification processes. Most existing literature on sentiment financial news typically relies on very simple linguistic features, such as Bag-of-Words (BOW) in which each piece of news is represented using distinct words with frequencies as a feature type, and only a few numbers of the studies have employed complicated approaches. Obviously, not all words are needed to reflect a given text. The primary downside of the BOW or unigrams is the huge number of linguistic features that it produces. The secondary downside is that linguistic features have too much information to become features while it is not clear which ones are important to the sentiment of financial news classification. Furthermore, since the extraction of words is based on their high frequency, typically low frequency-based linguistic features can be worth ignored. This research proposes two feature process models, Ngram-based and the NgramPOS-based models for the sentiment classification of financial news. The Ngram-based model utilizes statistical approaches for feature processing in order to classify financial news. This high frequency-based model combines unigrams and bigrams along with Term Frequency-Inverse Document ... |
