Emergent Mind

Abstract

In today's interconnected and multilingual world, code-mixing of languages on social media is a common occurrence. While many NLP tasks like sentiment analysis are mature and well designed for monolingual text, techniques to apply these tasks to code-mixed text still warrant exploration. This paper describes our feature engineering approach to sentiment analysis in code-mixed social media text for SemEval-2020 Task 9: SentiMix. We tackle this problem by leveraging a set of hand-engineered lexical, sentiment, and metadata features to design a classifier that can disambiguate between "positive", "negative" and "neutral" sentiment. With this model, we are able to obtain a weighted F1 score of 0.65 for the "Hinglish" task and 0.63 for the "Spanglish" tasks
