World of technology provides everyone with a great outlet to give their opinion, using social media like Twitter and other platforms. This paper employs machine learning methods for text analysis to obtain sentiments of reviews by the people on twitter. Sentiment analysis of the text uses Natural language processing, a machine learning technique to tell the orientation of opinion of a piece of text. This system extracts attributes from the piece of writing such as a) The polarity of text, whether the speaker is criticizing or appreciating, b) The topic of discussion, subject of the text. A comparison of the work done so far on sentiment analysis on tweets has been shown. A detailed discussion on feature extraction and feature representation is provided.
