A Hierarchical Sequence-to-Set Model with Coverage Mechanism for Aspect Category Sentiment Analysis (2024.lrec-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Aspect category sentiment analysis (ACSA) aims to detect aspect categories and their corresponding sentiment polarities (category-sentiment pairs) generative models face three challenges, including addressing the missing predictions and focusing on relevant sentiment words.
Approach: They propose to use sequence-to-set learning to tackle all three challenges simultaneously.
Outcome: The proposed model is able to detect aspect categories and their corresponding sentiment polarities (category-sentiment pairs) but it is unable to predict all aspect categories within a sentence due to the disordered set.
