| 1 | +# **Sentiment Analysis of Movie Reviews** |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +This project implements **sentiment analysis** using **NLP (Natural Language Processing)** techniques to classify movie reviews as **positive, negative, or neutral**. The goal is to process unstructured text data, extract meaningful features, and train classification models to predict the sentiment of each review. |

| 21 | +## **Tech Stack** |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +The following technologies and libraries are used in this project: |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +- **Python 3.8+**: Core programming language for building the project. |
| 26 | +- **pandas**: For data manipulation and analysis. |
| 27 | +- **scikit-learn**: Machine learning library used for feature extraction and building classifiers. |
| 28 | +- **nltk (Natural Language Toolkit)**: For text preprocessing (tokenization, stopword removal, etc.). |
| 29 | +- **TF-IDF Vectorizer**: Converts text data into numerical features. |
| 30 | +- **Naive Bayes and SVM**: Machine learning algorithms used for classification. |
| 31 | +- **GitHub Codespaces**: Cloud-based development environment for coding and collaboration. |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +--- |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +## **Features** |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +- **Text Preprocessing:** |
| 38 | + - Removes punctuation, converts text to lowercase, tokenizes, and removes stopwords. |
| 39 | +- **Feature Extraction:** |
| 40 | + - Uses **TF-IDF vectorization** to convert reviews into numerical form for model input. |
| 41 | +- **Classification Models:** |
| 42 | + - Implements **Multinomial Naive Bayes** and **Support Vector Machine (SVM)** classifiers. |
| 43 | +- **Evaluation Metrics:** |
| 44 | + - Outputs **accuracy score** and a **classification report** with precision, recall, and F1-score. |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +--- |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +## **Benefits** |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +1. **Scalable and Automated Analysis:** |
| 51 | + Automates the sentiment analysis of large volumes of reviews, eliminating the need for manual reading. |
| 52 | +2. **Improved Decision-Making:** |
| 53 | + Helps platforms like Netflix or Amazon identify audience reactions and improve content recommendations. |
| 54 | +3. **Proactive Issue Detection:** |
| 55 | + Identifies negative sentiment early to help brands respond to user concerns in real-time. |
| 56 | +4. **Versatile Solution:** |
| 57 | + Can be extended to other text-based sentiment use cases, such as product reviews or social media posts. |
| 58 | +5. **Brand Reputation Management:** |
| 59 | + Helps brands track public opinion trends and address customer feedback proactively. |
