Big Data Aspect-Based Opinion Mining Using the SLDA and HME-LDA Models

In order to make better use of massive network comment data for decision-making support of customers and merchants in the big data era, this paper proposes two unsupervised optimized LDA (Latent Dirichlet Allocation) models, namely, SLDA (SentiWordNet WordNet-Latent Dirichlet Allocation) and HME-LDA (Hierarchical Clustering MaxEnt-Latent Dirichlet Allocation), for aspect-based opinion mining. One scheme of each of two optimized models, which both use seed words as topic words and construct the inverted index, is designed to enhance the readability of experiment results. Meanwhile, based on the LDA topic model, we introduce new indicator variables to refine the classification of topics and try to classify the opinion target words and the sentiment opinion words by two different schemes. For better classification effect, the similarity between words and seed words is calculated in two ways to offset the fixed parameters in the standard LDA. In addition, based on the SemEval2016ABSA data set and the Yelp data set, we design comparative experiments with training sets of different sizes and different seed words, which prove that the SLDA and the HME-LDA have better performance on the accuracy, recall value, and harmonic value with unannotated training sets
