Project Overview

🎯 Business Problem

Organizations need to understand customer sentiment from reviews, social media, and feedback at scale. Manual analysis is time-consuming and subjective. This system automates sentiment classification with high accuracy and provides actionable insights.

🔍 Solution Approach

Multi-model ensemble system combining rule-based (VADER), statistical (TextBlob), traditional ML (Logistic Regression), and deep learning (RoBERTa transformers) approaches. Each model brings unique strengths for comprehensive sentiment analysis.

📊 Data Pipeline

Automated data collection from multiple sources, preprocessing with NLTK (tokenization, lemmatization, stopword removal), TF-IDF vectorization for ML models, and real-time prediction API. Handles 1000+ reviews per minute.

✨ Key Features

• Real-time sentiment classification
• Interactive visualization dashboards
• Confidence scoring & uncertainty quantification
• Batch processing capabilities

# Example: Quick Sentiment Analysis
from src.sentiment_analyzer import SentimentAnalyzer

analyzer = SentimentAnalyzer()
result = analyzer.get_ensemble_prediction(
    "This product exceeded my expectations!"
)

print(f"Sentiment: {result['sentiment']}")
print(f"Confidence: {result['confidence']:.2f}")
# Output: Sentiment: positive, Confidence: 0.89
