A Sequence-to-Structure Approach to Document-level Targeted Sentiment Analysis (2023.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) has received wide attention in NLP for nearly two decades . previous studies focused on sentence-level ABSA, but document-level research has not received enough attention. |
| Approach: | They propose a Sequence-to-Structure approach to address the document-level targeted sentiment analysis task, which aims to extract the opinion targets consisting of multi-level entities from a review document and predict their sentiments. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach outperforms baselines on six domains on the document-level targeted sentiment analysis task. |

Seq2Path: Generating Sentiment Tuples as Paths of a Tree (2022.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing generative methods for extracting sentiment tuples do not have orders between the t-uples . a novel parallel generative framework for ABSA is proposed . |
| Approach: | They propose a parallel generative framework to generate sentiment tuples as paths of a tree . they train the model with an independent target and introduce a discriminative token . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method achieves state-of-the-art on AOPE, ASTE, TASD, UABSA, ACOS . it trains with the loss of ordinary Seq2Seq averaged over paths, and inferences automatically select valid paths. |
