Sentiment analysis has attracted increasing attention recently due to its potential wide applications in opinion analysis, recommendation system, etc. Visual-textual sentiment analysis aims to improve the performance of sentiment analysis by leveraging both visual and textual signals. In this paper, we address the visual-textual sentiment analysis in product reviews. Our main contributions are two-fold. First, instead of crawling data from Flickr or Twitter with positive and negative labels in existing works, we introduce a new dataset for visual-textual sentiment analysis, termed as Product Reviews150K (PR-150K), which is collected from the product reviews of online shopping websites. Second, we propose a deep Tucker fusion method for visual-textual sentiment analysis, which efficiently combines visual and textual deep representations based on the Tucker decomposition and a bilinear pooling operation. Extensive experiments on our PR-150K, MVSO, and VSO datasets show that our method outperforms several state-of-the-art methods.
