Customer reviews on the Internet reflect users&rsquo: sentiments about the product, service, and social events. As sentiments can be divided into positive, negative, and neutral forms, sentiment analysis processes identify the polarity of information in the source materials toward an entity. Most studies have focused on document-level sentiment classification. In this study, we apply an unsupervised machine learning approach to discover sentiment polarity not only at the document level but also at the word level. The proposed topic document sentence (TDS) model is based on joint sentiment topic (JST) and latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) topic modeling techniques. The IMDB dataset, comprising user reviews, was used for data analysis. First, we applied the LDA model to discover topics from the reviews: then, the TDS model was implemented to identify the polarity of the sentiment from topic to document, and from document to word levels. The LDAvis tool was used for data visualization. The experimental results show that the analysis not only obtained good topic partitioning results, but also achieved high sentiment analysis accuracy in document- and word-level sentiment classifications.
