A majority voting framework for reliable sentiment analysis of product reviews

This article presents a tailored majority voting approach for enhancing the consistency and reliability of sentiment analysis in online product reviews. The methodology addresses discrepancies in sentiment classification by leveraging sentiment labels from multiple automated tools and implementing a robust majority decision rule. This consensus-based approach significantly enhances the trustworthiness and consistency of sentiment analysis outcomes, serving as a dependable foundation for training more precise sentiment analysis models. The data labeled with our method was utilized to train deep learning models, achieving competitive accuracy with significantly less data. The findings demonstrate the effectiveness of the method in producing results comparable to commercial tools while ensuring data consistency for model training.

Abstract

This article presents a tailored majority voting approach for enhancing the consistency and reliability of sentiment analysis in online product reviews. The methodology addresses discrepancies in sentiment classification by leveraging sentiment labels from multiple automated tools and implementing a robust majority decision rule. This consensus-based approach significantly enhances the trustworthiness and consistency of sentiment analysis outcomes, serving as a dependable foundation for training more precise sentiment analysis models. The data labeled with our method was utilized to train deep learning models, achieving competitive accuracy with significantly less data. The findings demonstrate the effectiveness of the method in producing results comparable to commercial tools while ensuring data consistency for model training.
