Public Reaction to Scientific Research via Twitter Sentiment Prediction
arXiv:2209.07333 · doi:10.2478/jdis-2022-0003
Abstract
Social media users share their ideas, thoughts, and emotions with other users. However, it is not clear how online users would respond to new research outcomes. This study aims to predict the nature of the emotions expressed by Twitter users toward scientific publications. Additionally, we investigate what features of the research articles help in such prediction. Identifying the sentiments of research articles on social media will help scientists gauge a new societal impact of their research articles.
