Abstract

Aspect-level sentiment analysis detects the sentiment polarity of given aspect terms from a fine-grained perspective, providing decision support for e-commerce, consumers, and other groups by mining textual aspect sentiment. Different syntactic dependencies were treated equally in existing methods resulting in the influence of relation types in convolutional networks and the global information from semantic perspective being overlooked. To address these issues, considering the flexibility and complexity of graph structures, the excellent performance of auxiliary tasks in capturing aspect sentiment based on global semantic information and completing fine-grained aspect information, the model WRCN-CL (weight relational convolutional networks and complementary task) which incorporates two tasks: WRCN(weighted relational convolutional networks) and CL (complementary learning) was proposed. Specifically, Bi-LSTM (bidirectional long short-term memory network) was used to extract textual features, which were entered into WRCN and CL tasks separately. Aspect-related semantic information was collected from a global perspective to enhance knowledge, while the aspect representations from CL combined with GCN (graph convolutional networks) to deeply explore syntactic information based on positional and type-aware relational information in WRCN. The fused global and local features were then input into a pooling layer to obtain comprehensive information representation for improved classification performance. Experimental results demonstrate significant improvements with the accuracy of 83.49%、78.19%、75.89% on three public datasets compared to baseline models, proving the effectiveness of the proposed model in aspect-level sentiment analysis classification task.
