LDPSA: A Large Dataset of Persian Sentiment Analysis

Today, data is more valuable to us than gold. When observing the environment, a substantial amount of data, particularly textual information, can be identified, tagged, prepared, and published in the form of a corpus or datasets. The primary objective of our paper is to gather, prepare, tag, and develop a vast dataset of Fidibo users' opinions regarding educational content and e-books. This dataset enables in-depth analysis of emotions and opinion mining, particularly within the educational content realm. A common flaw in nearly all similar datasets in the Farsi language is their restriction to user opinions on services and products available on online platforms. The dataset we refer to as LDPSA (A Large Dataset of Persian Sentiment Analysis) offers several advantages over comparable datasets in the Persian language. Notably, this dataset consists of 253,368 comments, each categorized into 5 classes. LDPSA represents the sole extensive Iranian dataset suitable for scrutinizing educational content and e-books. Moreover, significant insights were gleaned from data analysis. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Iranian individuals dedicated more time to studying and engaging with educational platforms significantly. Nearly 80% of users expressed favorable opinions concerning the informational materials available on the Fidibo website. Users' inclination towards utilizing audio books has escalated, along with other analysis referenced in the paper.
