• Abstract: In this paper, we discuss the nlpBDpatriots entry to the shared task on Sentiment Analysis of Bangla Social Media Posts organized at the first workshop on Bangla Language Processing (BLP) co-located with EMNLP. The main objective of this task is to identify the polarity of social media content using a Bangla dataset annotated with positive, neutral, and negative labels provided by the shared task organizers. Our best system for this task is a transfer learning approach with data augmentation which achieved a micro F1 score of 0.71. Our best system ranked 12th among 30 teams that participated in the competition.

  We propose a unified framework called NICE that can jointly learn two panoptic narrative recognition tasks. By linking PNS and PND in series with the barycenter of segmentation as the anchor, our approach naturally aligns the two tasks. NICE surpasses all existing methods by a large margin, achieving 4.1% for PND and 2.9% for PNS over the state-of-the-art.

  We propose a novel GNN-based framework named Contextualized Factorized Attention for Group identification (CFAG) We devise tripartite graph convolution layers to aggregate information from different types of neighborhoods among users, groups, and items. To cope with the data sparsity issue, we devise a novel propagation augmentation layer, which is based on our proposed factorized attention mechanism.

  We explore the task of sentiment analysis on Hinglish (code-mixed Hindi-English) tweets as participants of Task 9 of the SemEval-2020 competition, known as the SentiMix task. We had two main approaches: 1) applying transfer learning by fine-tuning pre-trained BERT models and 2) training feedforward neural networks on bag-of-words representations. During the evaluation phase of the competition, we obtained an F-score of 71.3% with our best model, which placed $4th$ out of 62 entries in the official system rankings.
