| Challenge: | Existing approaches to model aspect-level sentiment analysis neglect the position information of aspect terms. |
| Approach: | They propose a position-aware bidirectional attention network (PBAN) that mutually models the relation between aspect terms and sentences by employing bidirectional mechanism. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can distinguish sentiment polarity of aspect terms in sentences . it can also model relation between aspect terms and sentences based on position information . |
