Adversarial Training in Affective Computing and Sentiment Analysis: Recent Advances and Perspectives
Over the past few years, adversarial training has become an extremely active
research topic and has been successfully applied to various Artificial
Intelligence (AI) domains. As a potentially crucial technique for the
development of the next generation of emotional AI systems, we herein provide a
comprehensive overview of the application of adversarial training to affective
computing and sentiment analysis. Various representative adversarial training
algorithms are explained and discussed accordingly, aimed at tackling diverse
challenges associated with emotional AI systems. Further, we highlight a range
of potential future research directions. We expect that this overview will help
facilitate the development of adversarial training for affective computing and
sentiment analysis in both the academic and industrial communities
Attentional Encoder Network for Targeted Sentiment Classification
Targeted sentiment classification aims at determining the sentimental
tendency towards specific targets. Most of the previous approaches model
context and target words with RNN and attention. However, RNNs are difficult to
parallelize and truncated backpropagation through time brings difficulty in
remembering long-term patterns. To address this issue, this paper proposes an
Attentional Encoder Network (AEN) which eschews recurrence and employs
attention based encoders for the modeling between context and target. We raise
the label unreliability issue and introduce label smoothing regularization. We
also apply pre-trained BERT to this task and obtain new state-of-the-art
results. Experiments and analysis demonstrate the effectiveness and lightweight
of our model.Comment: 7 page
Recent Advances in Transfer Learning for Cross-Dataset Visual Recognition: A Problem-Oriented Perspective
This paper takes a problem-oriented perspective and presents a comprehensive
review of transfer learning methods, both shallow and deep, for cross-dataset
visual recognition. Specifically, it categorises the cross-dataset recognition
into seventeen problems based on a set of carefully chosen data and label
attributes. Such a problem-oriented taxonomy has allowed us to examine how
different transfer learning approaches tackle each problem and how well each
problem has been researched to date. The comprehensive problem-oriented review
of the advances in transfer learning with respect to the problem has not only
revealed the challenges in transfer learning for visual recognition, but also
the problems (e.g. eight of the seventeen problems) that have been scarcely
studied. This survey not only presents an up-to-date technical review for
researchers, but also a systematic approach and a reference for a machine
learning practitioner to categorise a real problem and to look up for a
possible solution accordingly
