This dataset contains a number of user product reviews which are publicly available on the website of an established Czech online shop with electronic devices. Each review consists of negative and positive aspects of the product. This setting pushes the customer to rate important characteristics.
We have selected 2000 positive and negative segments from these reviews and manually tagged their targets. Additionally, we selected 200 of the longest reviews and annotated them in the same way. The targets were either aspects of the evaluated product or some general attributes (e.g. price, ease of use).
Czech subjectivity lexicon, i.e. a list of subjectivity clues for sentiment analysis in Czech. The list contains 4626 evaluative items (1672 positive and 2954 negative) together with their part of speech tags, polarity orientation and source information.
The core of the Czech subjectivity lexicon has been gained by automatic translation of a freely available English subjectivity lexicon downloaded from http://www.cs.pitt.edu/mpqa/subj_lexicon.html. For translating the data into Czech, we used parallel corpus CzEng 1.0 containing 15 million parallel sentences (233 million English and 206 million Czech tokens) from seven different types of sources automatically annotated at surface and deep layers of syntactic representation. Afterwards, the lexicon has been manually refined by an experienced annotator. and The work on this project has been supported by the GAUK 3537/2011 grant and by SVV project number 267 314.
