I have a a question regarding my current project, i am trying to do a lexicon based sentiment analysis on my data, where iI calculate the sentiment score as followingfollows:
$$ Score = \frac{\sum_{i}{word_i}}{\mid words \mid} $$
So according to the score the word will be classified in either negative or positive. But iI have also calculated for every word in the article its salience and frequency and would like to know if its:
words | salience | frequency |
---|---|---|
sad | 0.8 | 3 |
happy | 0.5 | 2 |
Is it possible to use them in my sentiment analysis formula above.?
words| salience| frequence
sad 0.8 3
happy 0.5 2
