Language-Agnostic Model for Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis
Md Shad Akhtar, Kumar Abhishek, Asif Ekbal, Chris Biemann, Pushpak Bhattacharyya · 2019
In this paper, we propose a language-agnostic deep neural network architecture for aspect-based sentiment analysis.The proposed approach is based on Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM) network, which is further assisted with extra hand-crafted features.We define three different architectures for the successful combination of word embeddings and hand-crafted features.We evaluate the proposed approach for six languages (i.e.English, Spanish, French, Dutch, German and Hindi) and two problems (i.e.aspect term extraction and aspect sentiment classification).Experiments show that the proposed model attains state-of-the-art performance in most of the settings.
