Lyapunov filtering of objectivity for Spanish sentiment model
Conference Publication ResearchOnline@JCUAbstract
Objective sentences lack sentiments and, hence, can reduce the accuracy of a sentiment classifier. Traditional methods prior to 2001 used hand-crafted templates to identify subjectivity and did not generalize well for resource-deficient languages such as Spanish. Later works published between 2002 and 2009 proposed the use of deep neural networks to automatically learn a dictionary of features (in the form of convolution kernels) that is portable to new languages. Recently, recurrent neural networks are being used to model alternating subjective and objective sentences within a single review. Such networks are difficult to train for a large vocabulary of words due to the problem of vanishing gradients. Hence, in this paper we consider use of a Lyapunov linear matrix inequality to classify Spanish text as subjective or objective by combining Spanish features and features obtained from the corresponding translated English text. The aligned features for each sentence are next evolved using multiple kernel learning. The proposed Lyapunov deep neural network outperforms baselines by over 10% and the features learned in the hidden layers improve our understanding subjective sentences in Spanish.
