This paper focuses on learning domain-oriented language models driven by end tasks, which aims to combine the worlds of both general-purpose language models (such as ELMo and BERT) and domain-specific language understanding. We propose…
Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) involves extracting opinions from textual data about specific entities and their corresponding aspects through various complementary subtasks. Several prior research has focused on developing ad hoc…
Recent neural-based aspect-based sentiment analysis approaches, though achieving promising improvement on benchmark datasets, have reported suffering from poor robustness when encountering confounder such as non-target aspects. In this…
Sentiment analysis methods are rapidly being adopted by the field of Urban Design and Planning, for the crowdsourced evaluation of urban environments. However, most models used within this domain are able to identify positive or negative…
Aspect-level sentiment classification aims to identify the sentiment polarity towards a specific aspect term in a sentence. Most current approaches mainly consider the semantic information by utilizing attention mechanisms to capture the…
Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) aims to predict fine-grained sentiments of comments with respect to given aspect terms or categories. In previous ABSA methods, the importance of aspect has been realized and verified. Most existing…
Learning segmentation from synthetic data and adapting to real data can significantly relieve human efforts in labelling pixel-level masks. A key challenge of this task is how to alleviate the data distribution discrepancy between the…
Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA), a popular research area in NLP has two distinct parts -- aspect extraction (AE) and labeling the aspects with sentiment polarity (ALSA). Although distinct, these two tasks are highly correlated. The…
Aspect based sentiment analysis (ABSA) involves three fundamental subtasks: aspect term extraction, opinion term extraction, and aspect-level sentiment classification. Early works only focused on solving one of these subtasks individually.…
