Adaptive Semi-supervised Learning for Cross-domain Sentiment Classification
We consider the cross-domain sentiment classification problem, where a
sentiment classifier is to be learned from a source domain and to be
generalized to a target domain. Our approach explicitly minimizes the distance
between the source and the target instances in an embedded feature space. With
the difference between source and target minimized, we then exploit additional
information from the target domain by consolidating the idea of semi-supervised
learning, for which, we jointly employ two regularizations -- entropy
minimization and self-ensemble bootstrapping -- to incorporate the unlabeled
target data for classifier refinement. Our experimental results demonstrate
that the proposed approach can better leverage unlabeled data from the target
domain and achieve substantial improvements over baseline methods in various
experimental settings.Comment: Accepted to EMNLP201
