Moulik Kumar, Satish Gopalani, Pranav Gupta . Multi-Modal Machine Learning for Political Video Advertisement Analysis: Integrating Audio, Textual, and Visual Features. International Journal of Computer Applications. 186, 46 ( Nov 2024), 49-55. DOI=10.5120/ijca2024924115
This paper presents a novel framework for the automated classification, tagging, and issue level sentiment analysis of video advertisements using advanced machine-learning techniques. The proposed multi-pass approach leverages audio transcription, Optical Character Recognition (OCR), and video feature extraction to achieve high accuracy in distinguishing between political and non-political content. The research introduces robust methods for candidate identification for political videos using phrase matching and fuzzy logic, as well as issue tagging and senti- ment analysis utilizing natural language processing algorithms. The system demonstrates significant improvements over existing methods, achieving 99.2% accuracy in political ad classification when combining audio and OCR data. Furthermore, the developed issue level sentiment analysis provides granular insights into the emotional tone of political messaging. This research con- tributes to the growing field of content moderation in digital ad- vertising, offering valuable insights for publishers, researchers, and policymakers in the realm of political communication.
