Aspect Sentiment Quad Prediction (ASQP)

This repo contains the annotated data and code for our paper Aspect Sentiment Quad Prediction as Paraphrase Generation in EMNLP 2021.

Short Summary

  • We aim to tackle the aspect sentiment quad prediction (ASQP) task: given a sentence, we predict all sentiment quads (aspect category, aspect term, opinion term, sentiment polarity)

Data

  • We release two new datasets, namely rest15 and rest16 under the data dir.
  • Each data instance contains the original sentence, as well as a list of sentiment quads, separated by ####.
  • The annotations are from the combination of the existing TASD data and ASTE data. We conduct further annotations to obtain the complete quad label for each sentence.
  • You can also access the ABSA triplet data from the repo Generative-ABSA.

Requirements

We highly recommend you to install the specified version of the following packages to avoid unnecessary troubles:

  • transformers==4.0.0
  • sentencepiece==0.1.91
  • pytorch_lightning==0.8.1

Quick Start

  • Set up the environment as described in the above section
  • Download the pre-trained T5-base model (you can also use larger versions for better performance depending on the availability of the computation resource), put it under the folder T5-base.
    • You can also skip this step and the pre-trained model would be automatically downloaded to the cache in the next step
  • Run command sh run.sh, which runs the ASQP task on the rest15 dataset.
  • More details can be found in the paper and the help info in the main.py.
