SentiME is an ensemble system consisted by five individual sub-classifiers.
With the red color it has been illustrated the training process.

With the blue it has been illustrated the test process.

SentiME system is a system created in order to classify sentences in natural language.
SentiME classifies tweets and Amazon reviews given in standard format.

The training of the system is done by the first 4 sub-classifiers. Each one of them classifies each sentence separately and the final classification result is computed by the average of confident scores for each one of the classes. The class with the bigger average score is the dominant. Also during the training process we aplly bagging (Bootsrap Aggregating Algorithm) of 150% of the initial dataset.

The test of the system is been done by all of the classifiers. We use the 5th (Stanford Sentiment System) sub-classifier with pre-trained models.

There are a lot of external libraries needed for the Sentiment Ensemble System. You can Download Them From Google Drive, put them in directory: sentime/lib/ and add them to your Java Build Path. :)

package: fr.eurecom.sentime SentimeSystem

You can train a single individual system using the command below:

train <training_data> -trainmodel <select the system> ...

You can train all the system on the same training data using the command below:

train <training_dataset> [-arffname name_of_the_arff_file]...

Other parameters:

-testmodel Only test one sub-classifier, use 0-4 to specify which sub-classifier to be tested. Use 5 to test only the original Stanford Sentiment System.
-trainmodel Only train one sub-classifier, use 0-3 to specify which sub-classifer to be trained
-bsize Enables bagging training process and specify the size of bootstrap samples.
-experiment Using to disable Stanford Sentiment System; using to exclude TeamX; using to exclude both systems
-disablefilter Disable the default filter mechanism: using to disable duplicate input tweets; using to disable duplicate tweet filtering when scoring.
-format Change the input format to xml which converts to tsv files.Use for xml input or for tsv input dataset
-folder Choose the folder of the 10 fold cross-validation folder: using <1> for the first folder, <2 for the second>...
Example
java -Xms512m -Xmx120g -jar SentiMEa.jar train SemEval2013-train+dev-B -arffname _Bagging_150a -bsize 17007 -format tsv
###Test command

test <test_dataset> [-arffname name_of_the_arff_file]

Example

java -Xms512m -Xmx110g -jar SentiMEb.jar test SemEval2015-test-gold-B -arffname _Bagging_150b1  -format tsv

java -Xms512m -Xmx110g -jar SentiMEb.jar single
Please enter the tweet:

• If you don't explicitly specify the path of system parameter file, the default system parameter files will be used.

• Training and Testing dataset in SemEval's form (tweets) have to be put into resources/Amazon-reviews/eval_tsv/
• Training and Testing dataset in ESWC's form (Amazon Reviews) have to be put into resources/Amazon-reviews/eval_xml/
• The output (the classifications for input tweets) of system will be generated in output/result.txt
• All the wrong classifications will be generated in output/SentiMEa/ with a filename ending with "WrongClassified.tsv"

"I drove a Linconl and it's a truly dream" -> positive

"I drove a Linconl and it was awful" -> negative
