Title
Target-aware convolutional neural network for target-level sentiment analysis.
Abstract
Target-level sentiment analysis (TLSA) is a classification task to extract sentiments from targets in text. In this paper, we propose target-dependent convolutional neural network (TCNN) tailored to the task of TLSA. The TCNN  leverages the distance information between the target word and its neighboring words to learn the importance of each word to the target. Experimental results show that the TCNN  achieves state-of-the-art performance on both single- and multi-target datasets. Qualitative evaluations were conducted to demonstrate the limitations of previous TLSA methods and also to verify that distance information is crucial for TLSA. Furthermore, by exploiting a convolutional neural network (CNN), the TCNN trains six times faster per epoch than other baselines based on recurrent neural networks.
