• Authors: Fan Yang, Mian Zhang, Gongzhen Hu and Xiabing Zhou
• Abstract summary: Aspect Sentiment Triplet Extraction aims to extract the triplet of an aspect term, an opinion term, and their corresponding sentiment polarity from the review texts. Due to the complexity of language and the existence of multiple aspect terms and opinion terms in a single sentence, current models often confuse the connections between an aspect term and the opinion term describing it. We propose a pairing enhancement approach for ASTE, which incorporates contrastive learning during the training stage to inject aspect-opinion pairing knowledge into the triplet extraction model.

• Abstract: Aspect Sentiment Triplet Extraction (ASTE) aims to extract the triplet of an aspect term, an opinion term, and their corresponding sentiment polarity from the review texts. Due to the complexity of language and the existence of multiple aspect terms and opinion terms in a single sentence, current models often confuse the connections between an aspect term and the opinion term describing it. To address this issue, we propose a pairing enhancement approach for ASTE, which incorporates contrastive learning during the training stage to inject aspect-opinion pairing knowledge into the triplet extraction model. Experimental results demonstrate that our approach performs well on four ASTE datasets (i.e., 14lap, 14res, 15res and 16res) compared to several related classical and state-of-the-art triplet extraction methods. Moreover, ablation studies conduct an analysis and verify the advantage of contrastive learning over other pairing enhancement approaches.

  We propose to explicitly teach the model to capture relevant contexts and entity types by supervising and augmenting intermediate steps (SAIS) for relation extraction. Based on a broad spectrum of carefully designed tasks, our proposed SAIS method not only extracts relations of better quality due to more effective supervision, but also retrieves the corresponding supporting evidence more accurately.

  This work focuses on extracting explanations that indicate that a relation exists while using only partially labeled data. We propose our model-agnostic framework, D-REX, a policy-guided semi-supervised algorithm that explains and ranks relations. We find that about 90% of the time, human annotators prefer D-REX's explanations over a strong BERT-based joint relation extraction and explanation model.

  We present a novel paradigm, ASTE-RL, by regarding the aspect and opinion terms as arguments of the expressed sentiment. We first focus on sentiments expressed in a sentence, then identify the target aspect and opinion terms for that sentiment. This takes into account the mutual interactions among the triplet's components while improving exploration and sample efficiency.

  Aspect Sentiment Triplet Extraction (ASTE) aims to extract triplets from a sentence, including target entities, associated sentiment polarities, and opinion spans which rationalize the polarities. Existing methods are short on building correlation between target-opinion pairs, and neglect the mutual interference among different sentiment triplets. We propose a novel two-stage method which enhances the correlation between targets and opinions through sequence tagging.

  Aspect Sentiment Triplet Extraction (ASTE) is the task of extracting the triplets of target entities, their associated sentiment, and opinion spans explaining the reason for the sentiment. Our observation is that the three elements within a triplet are highly related to each other, and this motivates us to build a joint model to extract such triplets. We propose the first end-to-end model with a novel position-aware tagging scheme that is capable of jointly extracting the triplets.
