Sentiment analysis is becoming increasingly important for both academia and business. However, most current methods only identify the overall sentiment of a sentence rather than the sentiment of each aspect mentioned. Aspect-based sentiment analysis aims to identify the aspects discussed in a sentence and the sentiment associated with each aspect. The paper proposes two ensemble models based on multilingual BERT that transform aspect-based sentiment analysis into a sentence-pair classification task.

Sentiment Analysis is becoming an essential task for
academics, as well as for commercial companies. However,
most current approaches only identify the overall polarity of a sentence, instead of the polarity of each aspect mentioned in the sentence. Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis(ABSA) identifies the aspects within the given sentence, and the sentiment that was expressed foreach aspect. Recently, the use of pre-trained models such as BERT has achieved state of-the-art results in the field of natural language processing. In this paper, we propose two ensemble modelsbased on multilingual-BERT, namely, mBERT-E-MV and mBERTE AS. Using different methods, we construct an auxiliary sentence from this aspect and convert the ABSA problem to a sentence-pair classification task. We then ne-tune deferent pre-trained BERT models and ensemble them for a final prediction based on the proposed model; we achieve new, state-of-the-art results for data sets belonging to different domains in the Hindi language.
Sentiment Analysis is becoming increasingly crucial for both
academia and the business world. Nevertheless, many existing methods only detect the general sentiment of a sentence rather than the polarity of each aspect mentioned in it. Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) aims to identify the aspects discussed in a sentence along with the sentiment associated with each aspect. Recent advancements in natural language processing have led to the development of pre- trained models such as BERT, which have achieved state-of- the-art results in this field. In this study, we introduce two ensemble models based on multilingual-BERT, namely, mBERT-E-MV and mBERT-E-AS. By constructing an auxiliary sentence from each aspect using different methods, we transform the ABSA problem into a sentence-pair classification task. Subsequently, we fine-tune various pre- trained BERT models and ensemble them to predict the final outcome based on the proposed model. Our approach sets new state-of-the-art benchmarks for datasets from different domains in the Odia language.
