MSMO-ABSA: Multi-Scale and Multi-Objective Optimization for Cross-Lingual Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (2026.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) has seen success with English texts, but real-world social media interactions often involve multiple languages. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework for cross-lingual ABSA that incorporates code-switched bilingual sentences into the language discriminator and consistency training modules to enhance cross-linguistic alignment. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework achieves cross-lingual sentence-level and aspect-level alignment, aligning features of aspect terms in different contextual environments. |
