Basic tasks of sentiment analysis
Subjectivity detection is the task of identifying objective and subjective
sentences. Objective sentences are those which do not exhibit any sentiment.
So, it is desired for a sentiment analysis engine to find and separate the
objective sentences for further analysis, e.g., polarity detection. In
subjective sentences, opinions can often be expressed on one or multiple
topics. Aspect extraction is a subtask of sentiment analysis that consists in
identifying opinion targets in opinionated text, i.e., in detecting the
specific aspects of a product or service the opinion holder is either praising
or complaining about
A Multi-modal Approach to Fine-grained Opinion Mining on Video Reviews
Despite the recent advances in opinion mining for written reviews, few works
have tackled the problem on other sources of reviews. In light of this issue,
we propose a multi-modal approach for mining fine-grained opinions from video
reviews that is able to determine the aspects of the item under review that are
being discussed and the sentiment orientation towards them. Our approach works
at the sentence level without the need for time annotations and uses features
derived from the audio, video and language transcriptions of its contents. We
evaluate our approach on two datasets and show that leveraging the video and
audio modalities consistently provides increased performance over text-only
baselines, providing evidence these extra modalities are key in better
understanding video reviews.Comment: Second Grand Challenge and Workshop on Multimodal Language ACL 202
Comprehensive Review of Opinion Summarization
The abundance of opinions on the web has kindled the study of opinion summarization over the last few years. People have introduced various techniques and paradigms to solving this special task. This survey attempts to systematically investigate the different techniques and approaches used in opinion summarization. We provide a multi-perspective classification of the approaches used and highlight some of the key weaknesses of these approaches. This survey also covers evaluation techniques and data sets used in studying the opinion summarization problem. Finally, we provide insights into some of the challenges that are left to be addressed as this will help set the trend for future research in this area.unpublishednot peer reviewe
