Challenge: Existing models re-encode the sentence for each aspect or rely on static use of deep representations, leading to redundant computation and limited adaptivity.
Approach: They propose a single-pass inference framework that encodes each sentence once to construct a reusable, depth-ordered substrate.
Outcome: Experiments show that DABS reduces end-to-end computation by 60% in multi-aspect settings.
