Results show that by using attention to model the contribution of each word in a sentence with respect to the target, this model gives significantly improved results over two standard benchmarks.
Abstract
Neural network models have been used for target-dependent sentiment analysis. Previous work focus on learning a target specific representation for a given input sentence which is used for classification. However, they do not explicitly model the contribution of each word in a sentence with respect to targeted sentiment polarities. We investigate an attention model to this end. In particular, a vanilla LSTM model is used to induce an attention value of the whole sentence. The model is further extended to differentiate left and right contexts given a certain target following previous work. Results show that by using attention to model the contribution of each word with respect to the target, our model gives significantly improved results over two standard benchmarks. We report the best accuracy for this task.

Aspect-based Sentiment Classification with Aspect-specific Graph Convolutional Networks.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) over the dependency tree of a sentence to exploit syntactical information and word dependencies, and a novel aspect-specific sentiment classification framework was raised.

Neural Machine Translation by Jointly Learning to Align and Translate

TL;DR: It is conjecture that the use of a fixed-length vector is a bottleneck in improving the performance of this basic encoder-decoder architecture, and it is proposed to extend this by allowing a model to automatically (soft-)search for parts of a source sentence that are relevant to predicting a target word, without having to form these parts as a hard segment explicitly.

Thumbs up? Sentiment Classiflcation using Machine Learning Techniques

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of classifying documents not by topic, but by overall sentiment, e.g., determining whether a review is positive or negative, was considered and three machine learning methods (Naive Bayes, maximum entropy classiflcation, and support vector machines) were employed.
