Distantly Supervised Attribute Detection from Reviews

WS 2018  ·  Lisheng Fu, Pablo Barrio ·

This work aims to detect specific attributes of a place (e.g., if it has a romantic atmosphere, or if it offers outdoor seating) from its user reviews via distant supervision: without direct annotation of the review text, we use the crowdsourced attribute labels of the place as labels of the review text. We then use review-level attention to pay more attention to those reviews related to the attributes. The experimental results show that our attention-based model predicts attributes for places from reviews with over 98{\%} accuracy. The attention weights assigned to each review provide explanation of capturing relevant reviews.
