TensorTalk@DravidianLangTech 2025: Sentiment Analysis in Tamil and Tulu using Logistic Regression and SVM

K Anishka, Anne Jacika J


Abstract
Words are powerful; they shape thoughts that influence actions and reveal emotions. On social media, where billions of people share theiropinions daily. Comments are the key to understanding how users feel about a video, an image, or even an idea. But what happens when these comments are messy, riddled with code-mixed language, emojis, and informal text? The challenge becomes even greater when analyzing low-resource languages like Tamil and Tulu. To tackle this, TensorTalk deployed cutting-edge machine learning techniques such as Logistic regression for Tamil language and SVM for Tulu language , to breathe life into unstructured data. By balancing, cleaning, and processing comments, TensorTalk broke through barriers like transliteration and tokenization, unlocking the emotions buried in the language.
