Now that we have trained our sentiment analyzer, we need a way to reuse this model to predict the sentiment of new product reviews. Python provides a very convenient way for us to do this through the pickle module. Pickling in Python refers to serializing and deserializing Python object structures. In other words, by using the pickle module, we can save the Python objects that are created as part of model training for reuse. The following code snippet shows how easily the trained classifier model and the feature matrix, which are created as part of the training process, can be saved in your local machine:
import pickle
pickle.dump(vectorizer, open("vectorizer_sa", 'wb')) # Save vectorizer for reuse
pickle.dump(classifier, open("nb_sa", 'wb')) # Save classifier for reuse
Running the previous lines of code will save the Python object's vectorizer and classifier, which were created as part of the model...
