Abstract

Developing and improving hospital services, with a focus on meeting the needs of patients, is crucial. Therefore, feedback or comments related to the hospital, both positive and negative, are particularly beneficial for de velopment and improvement. To facilitate the reading of messages by hospital staff and to quickly address negative feedback, we analyzed the sentiment of feedback or comments. The research methodology involved analyzing data using the pyThaiNLP library in Python and evaluating the results in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. The research results indicate that the SVM (Support Vector Machine) model outperformed Naïve Bayes in the test dataset, achieving 86% accuracy compared to 80% accuracy. Both models achieved the same accuracy, which is 76%, in the test dataset.
