Abstract

Aspect-Opinion Pair Extraction (AOPE) is an emerging combination task of fine-grained sentiment analysis. Traditional works devise pipeline frameworks for AOPE, which potentially suffer from error propagation. To solve this problem, numerous joint methods have been proposed recently. However, these joint methods have not simultaneously considered the following three points: (1) hierarchically linguistic information captured by pre-trained language models (PLMs), (2) comprehensive word-level semantic relation learning, (3) explicit and overall subtask interaction modeling. In this paper, we propose a Multi-Representation Collaborative Enhancement (MRCE) model, which can address the above three issues with a joint framework. Extensive experiments on three widely used datasets demonstrate that our model outperforms the state-of-the-art methods.
