These are more difficult to identify and may require world knowledge to do so. In this work, we evaluate frequency-based, hybrid, and machine learning methods, including the use of the pre-trained BERT language model, in the task of extracting aspect terms in opinionated texts in Portuguese, emphasizing the analysis of implicit aspects. Besides the comparative evaluation of methods, the differential of this work lies in the analysis’s novelty using a typology of implicit aspects that shows the knowledge needed to identify each implicit aspect term, thus allowing a mapping of the strengths and weaknesses of each method.","url_abs":"https://aclanthology.org/2022.lrec-1.407","url_pdf":"https://aclanthology.org/2022.lrec-1.407.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"evaluating-methods-for-extraction-of-aspect","repo_url":"https://github.com/mtarcinalli/lrec-extraction-of-aspect-terms","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"aspect-based-sentiment-analysis-1","task_name":"Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis"},{"task_slug":"aspect-based-sentiment-analysis","task_name":"Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA)"},{"task_slug":"language-modeling","task_name":"Language Modeling"},{"task_slug":"language-modelling","task_name":"Language Modelling"},{"task_slug":"sentiment-analysis","task_name":"Sentiment Analysis"},{"task_slug":"world-knowledge","task_name":"World Knowledge"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
