          Issue Type: New Feature

The objective of the "Sentiment Analysis" component is to determine the 
sentiment of the author towards the object of his text.

Different techniques are proposed in the academic literature, and some state of 
the art approaches present very high accuracy.

Sentiment analysis can have different granularity levels:
- Binary classification: in this case, the text is to be classified into two 
classes which are "positive" and "negative".
- Ternary classification: in addition to the two classes present in the binary 
classification, a third class is added which is "neutral".
- Multi-class sentiment analysis: the two classes "positive" and "negative" are 
further divided into sub-classes (e.g., "love" happiness", etc. for the 
positive class; and "hate", "anger", etc. for the negative class). Therefore 
the classification objective is to determine the sentiment sub-class instead of 
the main polarity

In this component, we will implement some of the state of the art approaches, 
in particular the one presented here[1]. approaches use machine-learning 
techniques to learn a classifier from labeled training sets.
