Appraisal expression extraction based on semantic and dependency parsing

Published: 19 December 2019 Publication History

Abstract

Fine-grained sentiment analysis of online product reviews is important to both potential consumers and sellers. Automatically extracting appraisal expressions from online reviews is one of the key issues in fine-grained sentiment analysis. The existing method of using conditional random fields (CRF) extraction has achieved good results, but the mining of semantic features is not deep enough. On the basis of in-depth analysis of the semantic information of online reviews, we propose four semantic features, which are related word, distance from the beginning of sentence, forward-pointed turning word and backward-pointed adverb. CRF model with our features and traditional features is used to extract the appraisal expressions, then dependency parsing rules are used to supplement opinion phrases corresponding to isolated opinion targets. Experimental results on the mobile phone reviews corpus show that the accuracy of the proposed method is greatly improved compared with the baseline method 1. Compared with the baseline method 2, the accuracy of the method is not improved obviously, but the cost of manually marking the corpus is saved.
