SAIL is a tool which gives users the convenience of doing sentiment analysis using pre-trained models. The tool also supports incremental learning of the existing models by adding new labeled data.
The model accuracy can be improved by using domain specific lexicons and query terms.
Our software architecture is as follows:
- Shubhanshu Mishra - smishra8@illinois.edu
- Liang Tao - ltao3@illinois.edu
- Chieh-Li Chin - cchin6@illinois.edu
Advisor: Jana Diesner - jdiesner@illinois.edu

For training the word model, which is part of SAIL, we have used the SEMEVAL 2013 Task 2 part B - Twitter sentiment analysis data which contains tweet level sentiment labels for more than 20,000 tweets. We have trained our model on TRAIN+DEV+TEST data. We have only trained the model on the tweets which were labelled as positive or negative in the dataset. The data is released under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/).
