Score Range

[dorofino]

Hi Arafat,
Thank for make it this NuGet so simple to implement, I'm new with ML.

I have a question in regards to the SentimentPrediction.score.

I was wondering if there is any way I set up a range for the score between 0 to 1
For example:
0.5 > positive
0.5 = neutral
0.5 < negative

I'm currently using Cognitive Service Text Analytics API, and as you probably know their score between 0-1 Link

The sentiment analyzer classifies text as predominantly positive or negative, assigning a score in the range of 0 to 1. Values close to 0.5 are neutral or indeterminate. A score of 0.5 indicates neutrality. When a string cannot be analyzed for sentiment or has no sentiment, the score is always 0.5 exactly. For example, if you pass in a Spanish string with an English language code, the score is 0.5.

Let me know if you know an easy way to implement this method.

Best Regards,
Diego

Hi Diego

Sure, let me look into that this weekend and I will get back to you.

This sort of problem looks like more than classification i.e. (not true or false type) so let me dig into this first and then will update you.

Thanks
Arafat
