Abstract

Sentiment analysis is to identify the polarity of people's emotions toward entities as expressed in their opinions. With the development of science and technology, opinions published on social networks become more diverse in forms, including texts, images, sounds, and videos. Among them, opinions expressed through images increasingly dominate. Many image sentiment analysis methods have been published in recent years. Methods based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are notable. However, previous methods based on CNNs often cannot extract features well from low-resolution images. To solve the mentioned problem, in this study, we propose a method to improve the performance of sentiment analysis on images by combining two transfer learning models and a CNN model. Unlike other CNN-based models, our method can better extract local and global features on images. The proposed method was experimented on the FER2013 dataset and shown that it can improve accuracy by up to 9.03% compared to baseline methods.
