Traditional 2D convolutional models suffer from loss of semantic information and lack of sequential feature expression ability in sentiment classification. Aiming at these problems, a hybrid model based on 1D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) was proposed. Firstly, 2D convolution was replaced by 1D convolution to retain richer local semantic features. Then, a pooling layer was used to reduce data dimension and the output was put into the recurrent neural network layer to extract sequential information between the features. Finally, softmax layer was used to realize the sentiment classification. The experimental results on multiple standard English datasets show that the proposed model has 1-3 percentage points improvement in classification accuracy compared with traditional statistical method and end-to-end deep learning method. Analysis of each component of network verifies the value of introduction of 1D convolution and recurrent neural network for better classification accuracy.
