	%X Sentiment analysis is a very active research topic.
Every day, Facebook, Twitter, Weibo, and other social media,
as well as significant e-commerce websites, generate a massive
amount of comments, which can be used to analyse peoples
opinions or emotions. The existing methods for sentiment analysis
are based mainly on sentiment dictionaries, machine learning, and
deep learning. The first two kinds of methods rely on heavily
sentiment dictionaries or large amounts of labelled data. The third
one overcomes these two problems. So, in this paper, we focus
on the third one. Specifically, we survey various sentiment analysis
methods based on convolutional neural network, recurrent neural
network, long short-term memory, deep neural network, deep belief
network, and memory network. We compare their futures, advantages,
and disadvantages. Also, we point out the main problems of
these methods, which may be worthy of careful studies in the
future. Finally, we also examine the application of deep learning in
multimodal sentiment analysis and aspect-level sentiment analysis.
