| Title: | Unpaired sentiment-to-sentiment translation : a cycled reinforcement learning approach | Authors: | Xu, J Sun, X Zeng, Q Ren, X Zhang, X Wang, H Li, W |
Issue Date: | 2018 | Source: | In Proceedings of the 56th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics, Melbourne, Australia, 15-20 July 2018, (Vol. 1: Long Papers) , p. 979-988. Stroudsburg : Association for Computational Linguistics, 2018. | Abstract: | The goal of sentiment-to-sentiment “translation” is to change the underlying sentiment of a sentence while keeping its content. The main challenge is the lack of parallel data. To solve this problem, we propose a cycled reinforcement learning method that enables training on unpaired data by collaboration between a neutralization module and an emotionalization module. We evaluate our approach on two review datasets, Yelp and Amazon. Experimental results show that our approach significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art systems. Especially, the proposed method substantially improves the content preservation performance. The BLEU score is improved from 1.64 to 22.46 and from 0.56 to 14.06 on the two datasets, respectively. | Publisher: | Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) | DOI: | 10.18653/v1/p18-1090 | Rights: | © 2017 Association for Computational Linguistics ACL materials are Copyright © 1963–2021 ACL; other materials are copyrighted by their respective copyright holders.
