Resumen

The purpose of aspect-based sentiment classification is to identify the sentiment polarity of each aspect in a sentence. Recently, due to the introduction of Graph Convolutional Networks (GCN), more and more studies have used sentence structure information to establish the connection between aspects and opinion words. However, the accuracy of these methods is limited by noise information and dependency tree parsing performance. To solve this problem, we proposed an attention-enhanced graph convolutional network (AEGCN) for aspect-based sentiment classification with multi-head attention (MHA). Our proposed method can better combine semantic and syntactic information by introducing MHA and GCN. We also added an attention mechanism to GCN to enhance its performance. In order to verify the effectiveness of our proposed method, we conducted a lot of experiments on five benchmark datasets. The experimental results show that our proposed method can make more reasonable use of semantic and syntactic information, and further improve the performance of GCN.
