Challenge: Syntactic structures are crucial for capturing aspect-opinion relationships . syntactically based models struggle with linguistic complexities .
Approach: They propose a syntactic-opinion-sentiment reasoning framework that leverages syntaktic information to improve ABSA performance.
Outcome: The proposed framework improves ABSA performance, though smaller LLMs exhibit weaker performance.
