Abstract
A prototype digital library of social media content was developed to present a summarized view of public opinion in a visual interface. The domain of the study was movie reviews of multiple genres harvested from weblogs, discussion boards, user and critic review Web sites, and Twitter. The system performs fine-grained analysis to determine both the sentiment orientation and sentiment strength of the reviewer towards various aspects of a movie, such as overall opinion, director, cast, story, scene, and music. Various visual interface components were developed to present an overview of public opinion on multiple aspects of each movie, and a usability evaluation was conducted to observe their effectiveness. Aspect-based sentiment summarization interface has the highest score for usefulness while a sentiment link analysis graph visualizing how positive and negative sentiment terms are associated with review aspects has the highest score for overall rating.
