The present system and method for analyzing sentiment is based on fuzzy set theory and clustering to classify text as positive, negative, or objective. The method for training and testing a document collection to analyze sentiment comprises computing a frequency matrix comprising at least one row and at least column vectors, executing term reduction of the terms, enumerating categories, computing centroids of the enumerated categories and computing a fuzzy polarity map. The row vectors may correspond to terms and the column vectors may correspond to documents. The frequencies of terms in a document indicate the relevance of the document to a query.
