Challenge: Existing models for finding aspects and sentiments in opinionated texts ignore sentiments and are not supervised.
Approach: They propose a probabilistic model that finds aspects and sentiments in opinionated texts . they use authors, discourse relations, and word embeddings to capture regularities .
Outcome: The proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art models in topic cohesion and sentiment classification.

Complementary Learning of Aspect Terms for Aspect-based Sentiment Analysis (2022.lrec-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing ABSA models do not pay attention to aspect terms and their contexts . a discriminator is introduced to improve ABSA, allowing for better understanding of aspect terms .
Approach: They propose to improve ABSA by complementary learning of aspect terms . they explicitly recover aspect terms from each input sentence to better understand aspects .
Outcome: The proposed approach improves ABSA on five widely used English benchmark datasets.
