Abstract
Engineering teams need timely signals about evolving requirements and release risk, yet multilingual fan discourse around live sports is noisy, code-switched, and saturated with sarcasm and event-driven drift. We present Hybrid DeepSentX, an AI-driven framework that converts crowd commentary into actionable requirements insight and sprint-level risk scores. The pipeline couples multilingual transformer encoders with an inductive GraphSAGE conversation graph to inject relational context across posts, and adds a reinforcement learner whose reward is shaped to prioritize correct decisions on sarcasm-heavy items and rapidly shifting events. We assembled a million-plus posts from X, Reddit, and sports forums and evaluated the framework against strong baselines, including BERT, long short-term memory, support-vector machines, and recent hybrid models, with significance tests, calibration analysis, ablations, and efficiency profiling. DeepSentX achieved higher macro-averaged accuracy and F1 on code-switched and sarcastic subsets, reduced missed risk flags, and produced developer-facing artefacts that directly support backlog grooming and defect triage. Relative to prior hybrids that combine transformers with either graph reasoning or reinforcement alone, our contributions are fourfold: (i) a unified multilingual design that integrates transformer, graph, and reinforcement components for sarcasm and drift robustness, (ii) an annotated multi-platform corpus with explicit code switching and sarcasm labels and per platform language balance, (iii) a rigorous comparative study reporting accuracy, calibration, latency, memory, and parameter count, and (iv) deployment artefacts that turn model outputs into requirement clusters and sprint risk scores suitable for continuous planning.
