Challenge: Existing few-shot learning methods focus on single-label predictions, which can not work well for ACD since a sentence may contain multiple aspect categories.
Approach: They propose a few-shot learning method that uses the prototypical network to learn aspects from a set of aspects.
Outcome: The proposed method significantly outperforms baseline methods on three datasets.
