Structured Sentiment Analysis Using Sequence Labeling as Dependency Graph Parsing

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.11695v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This study addresses the problem of structured sentiment analysis, whose goal is to obtain a fine-grained sentiment graph where the nodes represent spans of sentiment holders, targets, and expressions, while the arcs define the relationships among them. Our proposed approach casts the task as dependency graph parsing, but departs from traditional parsing methods by solving it through sequence labeling. To do so, we leverage recent advances in linearized graph encodings that allow each word in the input to be assigned a label, effectively capturing the structure of the dependency graph. We conducted experiments on seven datasets spanning five languages (English, Spanish, Norwegian, Basque, and Catalan), showing performance competitive with lea
