R functions using SentiWordNet


I am doing sentiment analysis and text mining on an e-mail box dedicated for client feedback. I use R for this work. I based the sentiment analysis on the work done by Jeffrey Breen. It works fine but I want to take it a step further. During my research I came across SentiWordnet.

I searched for R-code/functions to be able to apply SentiWordNet but only came up with Java and Python resources. I am not at all familiar with either of these.

Is there someone who applied SentiWordNet in R? I will appreciate any assistance.


Solution

  • I can't find any example of SentiWordNet accessed solely from R, however you could call the Python package from R using rPython, or the Java implementation using rJava (some notes provided here). Unfortunately the python implementation is not currently available for Windows.
