In this paper, we present InstructABSA, Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) using instruction learning paradigm for all ABSA subtasks: Aspect Term Extraction (ATE), Aspect Term Sentiment Classification (ATSC), and Joint Task modeling. Our method introduces positive, negative, and neutral examples to each training sample, and instruction tunes the model (Tk-Instruct Base) for each ABSA subtask, yielding significant performance improvements. Experimental results on the Sem Eval 2014 dataset demonstrate that InstructABSA outperforms the previous state-of-the-art (SOTA) approaches on all three ABSA subtasks (ATE, ATSC, and Joint Task) by a significant margin, outperforming 7x larger models. In particular, InstructABSA surpasses the SOTA on the restaurant ATE subtask by 7.31% points and on the Laptop Joint Task by 8.63% points. Our results also suggest a strong generalization ability to unseen tasks across all three subtasks.

我们提出了InstructABSA，使用指令学习范式进行基于方面的情感分析，并在Aspect Term Extraction，Aspect Term Sentiment Classification和Joint Task构建的所有ABSA子任务上进行了表现显着的性能改进。
