The task in this assignment is to produce sentiment predictions over a collection of IMDB reviews by various text data representation such as unigram, unigram with tf-idf, bigram and bigram with tf-idf.

Tasks

• Combine raw DB into a single CSV file (imdb_tr.csv with 3 cols: row_number, text, polarity).
• Remove all common stopwords.
• transform text col in imdb_tr.csv into a term-document matrix using unigram model.
• Train a SGC classifier on it with loss="hinge" and penalty="l1".
• train a SGD classifier using unigram representation, predict sentiments on imdb_te.csv, and write output to unigram.output.txt
• train a SGD classifier using bigram representation, predict sentiments on imdb_te.csv, and write output to unigram.output.txt
• train a SGD classifier using unigram representation with tf-idf, predict sentiments on imdb_te.csv, and write output to unigram.output.txt
• train a SGD classifier using bigram representation with tf-idf, predict sentiments on imdb_te.csv, and write output to unigram.output.txt
