Studying Positive Speech on Twitter
We present results of empirical studies on positive speech on Twitter. By positive speech we understand speech that works for the betterment of a given situation, in this case relations between different communities in a conflict-prone country. We worked with four Twitter data sets. Through semi-manual opinion mining, we found that positive speech accounted for < 1% of the data . In fully automated studies, we tested two approaches: unsupervised statistical analysis, and supervised text classification based on distributed word representation. We discuss benefits and challenges of those approaches and report empirical evidence obtained in the study.
