This editedvolume provides the reader with a fully updated, in-depth treatise on the emergingprinciples, conceptual underpinnings, algorithms and practice of ComputationalIntelligence in the realization of concepts and implementation of models ofsentiment analysis and ontology -oriented engineering.

The volume involves studies devotedto key issues of sentiment analysis, sentiment models, and ontologyengineering. The book is structured into three main parts. The first partoffers a comprehensive and prudently structured exposure to the fundamentals ofsentiment analysis and natural language processing. The second part consists ofstudies devoted to the concepts, methodologies, and algorithmic developmentselaborating on fuzzy linguistic aggregation to emotion analysis, carrying outinterpretability of computational sentiment models, emotion classification,sentiment-oriented information retrieval, a methodology of adaptive dynamics inknowledge acquisition. The third part includes a plethora of applicationsshowing how sentiment analysis and ontologies becomes successfully applied toinvestment strategies, customer experience management, disaster relief,monitoring in social media, customer review rating prediction, and ontologylearning.

This book isaimed at a broad audience of researchers and practitioners. Readers involved inintelligent systems, data analysis, Internet engineering, ComputationalIntelligence, and knowledge-based systems will benefit from the exposure to thesubject matter.  The book may also serveas a highly useful reference material for graduate students and seniorundergraduate students.
