AI-Powered YouTube Comment Sentiment Analyzer with Real-Time NLP & Deep Learning Models

YouTube Comment Sentiment Analysis - AI-Powered NLP Project

Transform your understanding of audience engagement with our comprehensive YouTube Comment Sentiment Analysis system. This advanced final year project combines Machine Learning and Deep Learning to analyze emotions in YouTube comments with professional accuracy and beautiful visualizations.

🎯 Project Overview

This production-ready Flask web application performs real-time sentiment classification on YouTube comments, identifying Positive, Negative, and Neutral sentiments with 76% accuracy. Built using industry-standard NLP libraries including NLTK, TensorFlow, and scikit-learn, this project demonstrates advanced text preprocessing, feature engineering, and model deployment capabilities.

✨ Key Features & Capabilities

• Dual AI Model Architecture: Choose between traditional Machine Learning (Logistic Regression) or advanced Deep Learning (Bidirectional LSTM) models for sentiment prediction
• Real-Time Analysis: Instant sentiment detection with confidence scores and probability distributions for single comments
• Batch Processing Engine: Analyze multiple comments simultaneously with aggregated sentiment statistics and visual insights
• Advanced NLP Pipeline: Complete text preprocessing including tokenization, lemmatization, stop-word removal, and TF-IDF vectorization
• Interactive Data Visualizations: Beautiful Chart.js-powered pie charts, bar graphs, and confidence distribution displays
• Responsive Modern UI: Glassmorphism design with gradient backgrounds, smooth animations, and mobile-first responsive layout
• RESTful API Endpoints: Well-documented Flask API for easy integration with other applications
• Model Comparison Dashboard: Performance metrics across 5 different ML/DL algorithms with accuracy benchmarking

🏗️ Technical Architecture & Implementation

The system follows a three-tier architecture with a modern frontend (HTML5, Bootstrap 5.3, Chart.js), Flask backend with RESTful API design, and a sophisticated ML/DL layer featuring serialized models. The application processes text through comprehensive NLP preprocessing, converts to numerical features using TF-IDF or word embeddings, and delivers predictions through optimized model inference.

📊 Dataset & Model Performance

Trained on a comprehensive dataset of 18,408 real YouTube comments with balanced class distribution (62% Positive, 25% Neutral, 13% Negative). The project achieves 76% accuracy with the Logistic Regression model and 75% with Bidirectional LSTM, outperforming SVM (74%), Random Forest (73%), and Naive Bayes (71%) approaches.
