Navigate to the Web folder to launch the Flask application (python ngram.py
).
In addition to Flask, this project requires nltk. After installing nltk, make sure to download the vader_lexicon.txt data file. The download GUI is available via:
import nltk
nltk.download()
In the GUI, navigate to the "All Packages" tab and search for the identifier "vader_lexicon". Confirm data download by running:
from nltk.sentiment.vader import SentimentIntensityAnalyzer
sid = SentimentIntensityAnalyzer()
The "IW Presentation" folder contains a slide deck explaining the project.
My final research paper for this project can be found here.
