Sentiment analysis
View Patent ↗Data is received from multiple data sources. At least one of the data sources is an active audio or video communication. The received data is analyzed by extracting instances of a keyword from the received data and analyzing contextual data near the keyword. Sentiment about the extracted keyword is gauged based on the contextual data. The derived sentiment data from the multiple data sources is aggregated, and an aggregated view of the derived sentiment data is presented.
1. A method for analyzing received data, the method comprising:
using at least one processor to perform:
receiving data from multiple data sources, wherein at least one of the data sources is an active audio or video communication, the active audio or video communication being a live bi-directional communication between a plurality of devices;
analyzing the received data by extracting instances of a keyword from the received data and analyzing contextual data near the instances of the keyword;
deriving sentiment data about the keyword based on the contextual data;
aggregating the derived sentiment data from the multiple data sources; and
presenting an aggregated view of the derived sentiment data to a user, wherein the aggregated view includes an active call section corresponding to the live bi-directional active audio or video communication, the active call section including an icon corresponding to the keyword in a case that the keyword is mentioned by a party to the live communication other than the user, wherein, selecting the icon causes a control to be presented enabling adjustment of the party's sentiment towards the keyword and causes at least a portion of the contextual data to be presented, wherein an alert is issued when a sentiment threshold for the keyword is reached, and
wherein the active call section is configured to receive a command to perform at least one of:
toggling between analyzing and not analyzing the received data from the active audio or video communication; and
defining an additional keyword during the active audio or video communication.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein at least another one of the data sources is an active audio or video broadcast, and wherein voice-to-text transcription is used to extract keywords and contextual data from the received data.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the voice-to-text transcription of the active audio or video broadcast is displayed along with the sentiment data.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the keyword and the contextual data are extracted from a live text-based communication.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein positive and negative sentiment about the keyword are displayed as a graph of sentiment for the keyword.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a particular set of data sources can be selected to display sentiment data associated with those particular data sources.
7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein one or more keywords are defined by the user, either directly or indirectly based on existing data sources in use by the user.
8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the aggregated view and the derived sentiment data are shared among multiple users.
9. A system for displaying a user interface, the system comprising at least one processor, wherein the processor is configured to:
receive data from multiple data sources, wherein at least one of the data sources is an active audio or video communication, the active audio or video communication being a live bi-directional communication between a plurality of devices;
analyze the received data by extracting instances of a keyword from the received data and analyzing contextual data near the instances of the keyword;
derive sentiment data about the keyword based on the contextual data;
aggregate the derived sentiment data from the multiple data sources; and
present an aggregated view of the derived sentiment data to a user, wherein the aggregated view includes an active call section corresponding to the live bi-directional active audio or video communication, the active call section including an icon corresponding to the keyword in a case that the keyword is mentioned by a party to the live communication other than the user, wherein, selecting the icon causes a control to be presented enabling adjustment of the party's sentiment toward the keyword and causes at least a portion of the contextual data to be presented, wherein an alert is issued when a sentiment threshold for the keyword is reached, and
wherein the active call section is configured to receive a command to perform at least one of:
toggling between analyzing and not analyzing the received data from the active audio or video communication; and
defining an additional keyword during the active audio or video communication.
10. The system according to claim 9 , wherein at least another one of the data sources is an active audio or video broadcast, and wherein voice-to-text transcription is used to extract keywords and contextual data from the received data.
11. The system according to claim 10 , wherein the voice-to-text transcription of the active audio or video broadcast is displayed along with the sentiment data.
12. The system according to claim 9 , wherein the keyword and the contextual data are extracted from a live text-based communication.
13. The system according to claim 9 , wherein positive and negative sentiment about the keyword are displayed as a graph of sentiment for the keyword.
14. The system according to claim 9 , wherein a particular set of data sources can be selected to display sentiment data associated with those particular data sources.
15. The system according to claim 9 , wherein one or more keywords are defined by the user, either directly or indirectly based on existing data sources in use by the user.
16. The system according to claim 9 , wherein the aggregated view and the derived sentiment data are shared among multiple users.
17. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon sequences of instructions, the sequences of instructions including instructions, which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform:
receiving data from multiple data sources, wherein at least one of the data sources is an active audio or video communication, the active audio or video communication being a live bi-directional communication between a plurality of devices;
analyzing the received data by extracting instances of a keyword from the received data and analyzing contextual data near the instances of the keyword;
deriving sentiment data about the keyword based on the contextual data;
aggregating the derived sentiment data from the multiple data sources; and
presenting an aggregated view of the derived sentiment data to a user, wherein the aggregated view includes an active call section corresponding to the live bi-directional active audio or video communication, the active call section including an icon corresponding to the keyword in a case that the keyword is mentioned by a party to the live communication other than the user, wherein, selecting the icon causes a control to be presented enabling adjustment of the party's sentiment toward the keyword and causes at least a portion of the contextual data to be presented, wherein an alert is issued when a sentiment threshold for the keyword is reached, and
wherein the active call section is configured to receive a command to perform at least one of:
toggling between analyzing and not analyzing the received data from the active audio or video communication; and
defining an additional keyword during the active audio or video communication.
18. The method according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the active audio or video communication contains trader data.
19. The system according to claim 9 , wherein at least one of the active audio or video communication contains trader data.
20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 17 , wherein at least one of the active audio or video communication contains trader data.
