Most existing visual sentiment analysis methods mainly construct visual sentiment feature representation based on the whole image. However, the local regions with objects in the image are able to highlight the sentiment better. Concerning the problem of ignorance of local regions sentiment representation in visual sentiment analysis, a visual sentiment analysis method by combining global and local regions of image was proposed. Image sentiment representation was mined by combining a whole image with local regions of the image. Firstly, an object detection model was used to locate the local regions with objects in the image. Secondly, the sentiment features of the local regions with objects were extracted by deep neural network. Finally, the deep features extracted from the whole image and the local region features were utilized to jointly train the image sentiment classifier and predict the sentiment polarity of the image. Experimental results show that the classification accuracy of the proposed method reaches 75.81% and 78.90% respectively on the real datasets TwitterⅠand TwitterⅡ, which is higher than the accuracy of sentiment analysis methods based on features extracted from the whole image or features extracted from the local regions of image.
