Challenge: Existing sentiment lexicons assume words’ sentiments are invariant within a domain, but this assumption is weak for fine-granularity analyses of text sentiments.
Approach: They propose a "perturb-and-see" method to extract commonsense sentiments from large-scale datasets by binding a word's sentiment to its collocation words instead of domain labels.
Outcome: The proposed framework is able to achieve highly competitive performances on the unsupervised opinion relation extraction task.

Outcome: The proposed method allows for the construction of a more reliable sentiment lexicon . the proposed method is partially automated, but it's performance drops in cross-domain applications .
