由于它们在方面及其上下文词的语义对齐方面的固有能力,注意力机制和卷积神经网络(CNN)被广泛应用于基于方面的情感分类。然而,这些模型缺乏一种机制,以占相关的句法约束和长范围的词的依赖关系,因此可能会错误地识别句法无关的上下文单词作为线索,判断方面的情绪。为了解决这个问题,我们建议在句子的依赖树上构建一个图卷积网络(GCN),以利用句法信息和单词依赖关系。在此基础上,提出了一种新颖的面向特定方面的情感分类框架。三个基准集合上的实验表明,我们提出的模型具有相当的有效性,一系列的国家的最先进的模型,并进一步证明,语法信息和长范围的单词依赖关系被正确捕获的图卷积结构。
Due to their inherent capability in semantic alignment of aspects and their context words, attention mechanism and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are widely applied for aspect-based sentiment classification. However, these models lack a mechanism to account for relevant syntactical constraints and long-range word dependencies, and hence may mistakenly recognize syntactically irrelevant contextual words as clues for judging aspect sentiment. To tackle this problem, we propose to build a Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) over the dependency tree of a sentence to exploit syntactical information and word dependencies. Based on it, a novel aspect-specific sentiment classification framework is raised. Experiments on three benchmarking collections illustrate that our proposed model has comparable effectiveness to a range of state-of-the-art models, and further demonstrate that both syntactical information and long-range word dependencies are properly captured by the graph convolution structure.
