Sentiment analysis and topic modelling of 2024 U.S. and Indonesian election tweets: a study of political discourse and public opinion by Widawati, Elisia Brispalma

“…Results demonstrate that LLMs significantly outperform LSTM and Transformer models in sentiment classification; BERTopic successfully captures the dynamic shifts in conversations, highlighting the evolving focus on key election-related issues; and SARIMA models fairly reliably forecast sentiment trends, though they struggle with predicting extreme fluctuations. These findings underscore the importance of combining advanced LLMs and topic modelling techniques with forecasting to provide a nuanced understanding of public sentiment and discourse and inform future research and applications in these areas.…”
