How to Perform Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis Using DeBERTa

Category :

Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) allows you to understand consumers’ opinions towards specific features of products or services. In this blog, we’ll explore how to use the DeBERTa model, specifically the `yanghengdeberta-v3-large-absa-v1.1`, to perform ABSA effectively.

Understanding the Model and Datasets

The `yanghengdeberta-v3-large-absa-v1.1` model is a powerful tool trained on over 30,000 ABSA samples. Think of it like a chef who has prepared thousands of meals, learning the best ingredients for perfect dishes. Because of its vast training, this model excels at discerning sentiments directed towards specific aspects in reviews.

We will use the following datasets:

  • Laptop14
  • Restaurant14
  • Restaurant16
  • ACL-Twitter
  • MAMS
  • Television
  • TShirt
  • Yelp

Setting Up Your Environment

First, you need to install the necessary libraries. Ensure you have installed the Transformers library and additional dependencies from PyABSA.

Loading the Model

The following Python code loads the model and tokenizer:

python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('yanghengdeberta-v3-large-absa-v1.1')
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained('yanghengdeberta-v3-large-absa-v1.1')

This snippet can be thought of as preparing your workspace in a cooking show: gathering all the necessary ingredients (model and tokenizer) before you start creating your dish (analyzing sentiment).

Example Usage

After loading the model, you can use it to classify sentiments in your text data. Here’s a quick example:

python
text = "[CLS] when tables opened up, the manager sat another party before us. [SEP] manager [SEP]"
inputs = tokenizer(text, return_tensors='pt')

# Get predictions
outputs = model(**inputs)

In this example, we are analyzing a situation where the manager’s actions affect customer sentiment, sort of like how the timing of a pizza delivery can change your mood while watching a movie. Based on the input, the model will determine if the sentiment is positive, negative, or neutral regarding the ‘manager’ aspect.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

If you encounter issues while implementing the model, here are some troubleshooting strategies:

  • Error in Loading Model: Ensure the correct version of the model string is used. Typing errors might lead to this issue.
  • No Response from Model: Check if you have the required version of PyTorch or TensorFlow installed.
  • Unexpected Predictions: Verify your input format aligns with what the model expects. The text should include both sentiments and their associated aspects with appropriate tokens.
