• Authors: Hongjiang Jing, Zuchao Li, Hai Zhao and Shu Jiang
• Abstract summary: We propose a joint ABSA model, which not only enjoys the benefits of encoder sharing but also focuses on the difference to improve the effectiveness of the model. In detail, we introduce a dual-encoder design, in which a pair encoder especially focuses on candidate aspect-opinion pair classification, and the original encoder keeps attention on sequence labeling. Empirical results show that our proposed model shows robustness and significantly outperforms the previous state-of-the-art on four benchmark datasets.

• Abstract: Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) task consists of three typical subtasks: aspect term extraction, opinion term extraction, and sentiment polarity classification. These three subtasks are usually performed jointly to save resources and reduce the error propagation in the pipeline. However, most of the existing joint models only focus on the benefits of encoder sharing between subtasks but ignore the difference. Therefore, we propose a joint ABSA model, which not only enjoys the benefits of encoder sharing but also focuses on the difference to improve the effectiveness of the model. In detail, we introduce a dual-encoder design, in which a pair encoder especially focuses on candidate aspect-opinion pair classification, and the original encoder keeps attention on sequence labeling. Empirical results show that our proposed model shows robustness and significantly outperforms the previous state-of-the-art on four benchmark datasets.

  Multi-perspective approach yields better classification performance than the baseline which uses the single label. This entails that designing more inclusive perspective-aware AI models is not only an essential first step in implementing responsible and ethical AI, but it can also achieve superior results than using the traditional approaches.

  We propose an entity-aware biaffine attention model for constituent parsing. This model incorporates entity information into the biaffine attention mechanism by using additional entity role vectors for potential phrases. We introduce a new metric, the Entity Violating Rate (EVR), to quantify the extent of entity violations in parsing results.

  RDA is a pioneering approach designed to address two primary deficiencies prevalent in previous endeavors aiming at stealing pre-trained encoders. It is accomplished via a sample-wise prototype, which consolidates the target encoder's representations for a given sample's various perspectives. For more potent efficacy, we develop a multi-relational extraction loss that trains the surrogate encoder to Discriminate mismatched embedding-prototype pairs.

  'Model guidance' is the idea of regularizing the models' explanations to ensure that they are "right for the right reasons" We conduct an in-depth evaluation across various loss functions, attribution methods, models, and 'guidance depths' on the PASCAL VOC 2007 and MS COCO 2014 datasets. Specifically, we guide the models via bounding box annotations, which are much cheaper to obtain than the commonly used segmentation masks.

  We propose to reduce spurious correlations for aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) via a novel Contrastive Variational Information Bottleneck framework (called CVIB) The proposed CVIB framework is composed of an original network and a self-pruned network, and these two networks are optimized simultaneously via contrastive learning. Our approach achieves better performance than the strong competitors in terms of overall prediction performance, robustness, and generalization.

Existing methods solve this problem by performing subtasks of classification and localization utilizing a shared component. We present that a general few-shot detector should consider the explicit decomposition of two subtasks, as well as leveraging information from both of them to enhance feature representations.
