Challenge: Existing methods for ACSA fail to model relations of target words and opinion words in a sentence including multiple aspects.
Approach: They propose to incorporate AMR into a text generation model to model relations of target words and opinion words in a sentence including multiple aspects.
Outcome: The proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art methods on three datasets.

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.

Multi-Instance Multi-Label Learning Networks for Aspect-Category Sentiment Analysis (2020.emnlp-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing methods to detect sentiment toward aspect categories ignore the fact that the sentiment of an aspect category mentioned in a sentence is an aggregation of the sentiments of the words indicating the aspect category in the sentence, which leads to suboptimal performance.
Approach: They propose a multi-instance multi-label learning network for Aspect-Category sentiment analysis that treats sentences as bags, words as instances, and the words indicating an aspect category as key instances of the aspect category.
Outcome: The proposed model is based on three public datasets showing that it performs well.
