Proposed Model

Based on the aspect-level sentiment analysis is typical of fine-grained emotional classification that assigns sentiment polarity for each of the aspects in a review. For better handle the emotion classification task, this paper put forward a new model which apply Long Short-Term Memory network combine multiple attention with aspect context. Where multiple attention mechanism (i.e., location attention, content attention and class attention) refers to takes the factors of context location, content semantics and class balancing into consideration. Therefore, the proposed model can adaptively integrate location and semantic information between the aspect targets and their contexts into sentimental features, and overcome the model data variance introduced by the imbalanced training dataset. In addition, the aspect context is encoded on both sides of the aspect target, so as to enhance the ability of the model to capture semantic information. The Multi-Attention mechanism (MATT) and Aspect Context (AC) allow our model to perform better when facing reviews with more complicated structures. The result of this experiment indicate that the accuracy of the new model is up to 80.6% and 75.1% for two datasets in SemEval-2014 Task 4 respectively, While the accuracy of the data set on twitter 71.1%, and 81.6% for the Chinese automotive-domain dataset. Compared with some previous models for sentiment analysis, our model shows a higher accuracy.

Proposed Model

Membrane proteins play essential roles in modern medicine. In recent studies, some membrane proteins involved in ectodomain shedding events have been reported as the potential drug targets and biomarkers of some serious diseases. However, there are few effective tools for identifying the shedding event of membrane proteins. So, it is necessary to design an effective tool for predicting shedding event of membrane proteins. In this study, we design an end-to-end prediction model using deep neural networks with long short-term memory (LSTM) units and attention mechanism, to predict the ectodomain shedding events of membrane proteins only by sequence information. Firstly, the evolutional profiles are encoded from original sequences of these proteins by Position-Specific Iterated BLAST (PSI-BLAST) on Uniref50 database. Then, the LSTM units which contain memory cells are used to hold information from past inputs to the network and the attention mechanism is applied to detect sorting signals in proteins regardless of their position in the sequence. Finally, a fully connected dense layer and a softmax layer are used to obtain the final prediction results. Additionally, we also try to reduce overfitting of the model by using dropout, L2 regularization, and bagging ensemble learning in the model training process. In order to ensure the fairness of performance comparison, firstly we use cross validation process on training dataset obtained from an existing paper. The average accuracy and area under a receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of five-fold cross-validation are 81.19% and 0.835 using our proposed model, compared to 75% and 0.78 by a previously published tool, respectively. To better validate the performance of the proposed model, we also evaluate the performance of the proposed model on independent test dataset. The accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity are 83.14%, 84.08%, and 81.63% using our proposed model, compared to 70.20%, 71.97%, and 67.35% by the existing model. The experimental results validate that the proposed model can be regarded as a general tool for predicting ectodomain shedding events of membrane proteins.

Real-time messaging and opinion sharing in social media websites have made them valuable sources of different kinds of information. This source provides the opportunity for doing different kinds of analysis. Sentiment analysis as one of the most important of these analyses gains increasing interests. However, the research in this field is still facing challenges. The mainstream of the sentiment analysis research on social media websites and microblogs just exploits the textual content of the posts. This makes the analysis hard because microblog posts are short and noisy. However, they have lots of contexts which can be exploited for sentiment analysis. In order to use the context as an auxiliary source, some recent papers use reply/retweet to model the context of the target post. We claim that multiple sequential contexts can be used jointly in a unified model. In this article, we propose a context-aware multi-thread hierarchical long short-term memory (MHLSTM) that jointly models different kinds of contexts, such as tweep, hashtag and reply besides the content of the target post. Experimental evaluations on a real-world Twitter data set demonstrate that our proposed model can outperform some strong baseline models by 28.39% in terms of relative error reduction.

Background & Objective: This paper proposes a Fourier transform inspired method to classify human activities from time series sensor data. Methods: Our method begins by decomposing 1D input signal into 2D patterns, which is motivated by the Fourier conversion. The decomposition is helped by Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) which captures the temporal dependency from the signal and then produces encoded sequences. The sequences, once arranged into the 2D array, can represent the fingerprints of the signals. The benefit of such transformation is that we can exploit the recent advances of the deep learning models for the image classification such as Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Results: The proposed model, as a result, is the combination of LSTM and CNN. We evaluate the model over two data sets. For the first data set, which is more standardized than the other, our model outperforms previous works or at least equal. In the case of the second data set, we devise the schemes to generate training and testing data by changing the parameters of the window size, the sliding size, and the labeling scheme. Conclusion: The evaluation results show that the accuracy is over 95% for some cases. We also analyze the effect of the parameters on the performance.

Text Sentiment analysis is the process of predicting whether a segment of text has opinionated or objective content and analyzing the polarity of the text’s sentiment. Understanding the needs and behavior of the target customer plays a vital role in the success of the business so the sentiment analysis process would help the marketer to improve the quality of the product as well as a shopper to buy the correct product. Due to its automatic learning capability, deep learning is the current research interest in Natural language processing. Skip-gram architecture is used in the proposed model for better extraction of the semantic relationships as well as contextual information of words. However, the main contribution of this work is Adaptive Particle Swarm Optimization (APSO) algorithm based LSTM for sentiment analysis. LSTM is used in the proposed model for understanding complex patterns in textual data. To improve the performance of the LSTM, weight parameters are enhanced by presenting the Adaptive PSO algorithm. Opposition based learning (OBL) method combined with PSO algorithm becomes the Adaptive Particle Swarm Optimization (APSO) classifier which assists LSTM in selecting optimal weight for the environment in less number of iterations. So APSO - LSTM ‘s ability in adjusting the attributes such as optimal weights and learning rates combined with the good hyper parameter choices leads to improved accuracy and reduces losses. Extensive experiments were conducted on four datasets proved that our proposed APSO-LSTM model secured higher accuracy over the classical methods such as traditional LSTM, ANN, and SVM. According to simulation results, the proposed model is outperforming other existing models.

Real World Applications

Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA), a fine-grained task of opinion mining, which aims to extract sentiment of specific target from text, is an important task in many real-world applications, especially in the legal field. Therefore, in this paper, we study the problem of limitation of labeled training data required and ignorance of in-domain knowledge representation for End-to-End Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (E2E-ABSA) in legal field. We proposed a new method under deep learning framework, named Semi-ETEKGs, which applied E2E framework using knowledge graph (KG) embedding in legal field after data augmentation (DA). Specifically, we pre-trained the BERT embedding and in-domain KG embedding for unlabeled data and labeled data with case elements after DA, and then we put two embeddings into the E2E framework to classify the polarity of target-entity. Finally, we built a case-related dataset based on a popular benchmark for ABSA to prove the efficiency of Semi-ETEKGs, and experiments on case-related dataset from microblog comments show that our proposed model outperforms the other compared methods significantly.

Contextual Feature

The accurate exploration of the sentiment information in comments for Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) courses plays an important role in improving its curricular quality and promoting MOOC platform’s sustainable development. At present, most of the sentiment analyses of comments for MOOC courses are actually studies in the extensive sense, while relatively less attention is paid to such intensive issues as the polysemous word and the familiar word with an upgraded significance, which results in a low accuracy rate of the sentiment analysis model that is used to identify the genuine sentiment tendency of course comments. For this reason, this paper proposed an ALBERT-BiLSTM model for sentiment analysis of comments for MOOC courses. Firstly, ALBERT was used to dynamically generate word vectors. Secondly, the contextual feature vectors were obtained through BiLSTM pre-sequence and post-sequence, and the attention mechanism that could calculate the weight of different words in a sentence was applied together. Finally, the BiLSTM output vectors were input into Softmax for the classification of sentiments and prediction of the sentimental tendency. The experiment was performed based on the genuine data set of comments for MOOC courses. It was proved in the result that the proposed model was higher in accuracy rate than the already existing models.

The Impact

The sentiment analysis of microblog text has always been a challenging research field due to the limited and complex contextual information. However, most of the existing sentiment analysis methods for microblogs focus on classifying the polarity of emotional keywords while ignoring the transition or progressive impact of words in different positions in the Chinese syntactic structure on global sentiment, as well as the utilization of emojis. To this end, we propose the emotion-semantic-enhanced bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) network with the multi-head attention mechanism model (EBILSTM-MH) for sentiment analysis. This model uses BiLSTM to learn feature representation of input texts, given the word embedding. Subsequently, the attention mechanism is used to assign the attentive weights of each words to the sentiment analysis based on the impact of emojis. The attentive weights can be combined with the output of the hidden layer to obtain the feature representation of posts. Finally, the sentiment polarity of microblog can be obtained through the dense connection layer. The experimental results show the feasibility of our proposed model on microblog sentiment analysis when compared with other baseline models.

Long Short Term Memory

Traffic prediction is based on modeling the complex non-linear spatiotemporal traffic dynamics in road network. In recent years, Long Short-Term Memory has been applied to traffic prediction, achieving better performance. The existing Long Short-Term Memory methods for traffic prediction have two drawbacks: they do not use the departure time through the links for traffic prediction, and the way of modeling long-term dependence in time series is not direct in terms of traffic prediction. Attention mechanism is implemented by constructing a neural network according to its task and has recently demonstrated success in a wide range of tasks. In this paper, we propose an Long Short-Term Memory-based method with attention mechanism for travel time prediction. We present the proposed model in a tree structure. The proposed model substitutes a tree structure with attention mechanism for the unfold way of standard Long Short-Term Memory to construct the depth of Long Short-Term Memory and modeling long-term dependence. The attention mechanism is over the output layer of each Long Short-Term Memory unit. The departure time is used as the aspect of the attention mechanism and the attention mechanism integrates departure time into the proposed model. We use AdaGrad method for training the proposed model. Based on the datasets provided by Highways England, the experimental results show that the proposed model can achieve better accuracy than the Long Short-Term Memory and other baseline methods. The case study suggests that the departure time is effectively employed by using attention mechanism.

Novel Variant

Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) aims to predict fine-grained sentiments of comments with respect to given aspect terms or categories. In previous ABSA methods, the importance of aspect has been realized and verified. Most existing LSTM-based models take aspect into account via the attention mechanism, where the attention weights are calculated after the context is modeled in the form of contextual vectors. However, aspect-related information may be already discarded and aspect-irrelevant information may be retained in classic LSTM cells in the context modeling process, which can be improved to generate more effective context representations. This paper proposes a novel variant of LSTM, termed as aspect-aware LSTM (AA-LSTM), which incorporates aspect information into LSTM cells in the context modeling stage before the attention mechanism. Therefore, our AA-LSTM can dynamically produce aspect-aware contextual representations. We experiment with several representative LSTM-based models by replacing the classic LSTM cells with the AA-LSTM cells. Experimental results on SemEval-2014 Datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of AA-LSTM.
