Abstract
This paper presents a compact three-class sentiment analysis study for Indonesian social media text. The task is formulated with positive, negative, and neutral outputs derived from a fine-grained emotion dataset. The proposed practical baseline combines TF--IDF text features, three lightweight numeric metadata features, and a balanced multinomial Logistic Regression classifier. For comparison, the study also includes a neural baseline using a two-layer multilayer perceptron (MLP) over the same hybrid feature representation. The dataset originally contains 732 rows and 191 fine-grained emotion labels; after cleaning, deduplication, and label remapping, 707 samples remain with an imbalanced distribution of 459 positive, 188 negative, and 60 neutral instances. Experimental results show that the Logistic Regression deployment model reaches 0.8028 accuracy, 0.8003 weighted F1, and 0.7276 macro F1, while project documentation reports a higher-accuracy but non-production MLP baseline. These findings indicate that careful preprocessing, interpretable feature engineering, and class balancing remain competitive for small Indonesian sentiment datasets, whereas the neural baseline is better treated as a comparative experiment than as the default deployment model.
