• Authors: Arunava Kumar Chakraborty, Sourav Das and Anup Kumar Kolya
• Abstract summary: This paper represents the sentiment analysis on collected large number of tweets on Coronavirus or Covid-19. We analyze the trend of public sentiment on the topics related to Covid-19 epidemic using an evolutionary classification followed by the n-gram analysis. We trained the long-short term network using two types of rated tweets to predict sentiment on Covid-19 data and obtained an overall accuracy of 84.46%.

• Abstract: As the Covid-19 outbreaks rapidly all over the world day by day and also affects the lives of million, a number of countries declared complete lock-down to check its intensity. During this lockdown period, social media plat-forms have played an important role to spread information about this pandemic across the world, as people used to express their feelings through the social networks. Considering this catastrophic situation, we developed an experimental approach to analyze the reactions of people on Twitter taking into ac-count the popular words either directly or indirectly based on this pandemic. This paper represents the sentiment analysis on collected large number of tweets on Coronavirus or Covid-19. At first, we analyze the trend of public sentiment on the topics related to Covid-19 epidemic using an evolutionary classification followed by the n-gram analysis. Then we calculated the sentiment ratings on collected tweet based on their class. Finally, we trained the long-short term network using two types of rated tweets to predict sentiment on Covid-19 data and obtained an overall accuracy of 84.46%.

  We analyze the hoarding and anti-hoarding patterns of over 42,000 unique Twitter users in the United States from March 1 to April 30, 2020. We find the percentage of females in both hoarding and anti-hoarding groups is higher than that of the general Twitter user population. The LIWC anxiety mean for the hoarding-related tweets is significantly higher than the baseline Twitter anxiety mean.

  Natural language analysis of this text enables near-to-real-time monitoring of indicators of public risk perception. We compare epidemiological indicators of the progression of the pandemic with indicators of the public perception of the pandemic constructed from 20 million unique Covid-19-related tweets. We find evidence of psychophysical numbing: Twitter users increasingly fixate on mortality, but in a decreasingly emotional and increasingly analytic tone.
