The usergenerated opinion-rich reviews will not only help other users make better judgements but they are also useful resources for manufacturers of products to keep track and manage customer opinions. However, as the number of product reviews grows, it becomes difficult for a user to manually learn the panorama of an interesting topic from existing online information. Faced with this problem, research works, e.g., (Hu and Liu, 2004; Liu et al., 2005; Lu et al., 2009) , of sentiment analysis on product reviews were proposed and have become a popular research topic at the crossroads of information retrieval and computational linguistics.", |

| "text": "First of all, product reviews constitute domainspecific knowledge. The product's attributes mentioned in reviews might have some relationships between each other. For example, for a digital camera, comments on image quality are usually mentioned. However, a sentence like \"40D handles noise very well up to ISO 800\", also refers to image quality of the camera 40D. Here we say \"noise\" is a sub-attribute factor of \"image quality\". We argue that the hierarchical relationship between a product's attributes can be useful knowledge if it can be formulated and utilized in product reviews analysis. Secondly, Vocabularies used in product reviews tend to be highly overlapping. Especially, for same attribute, usually same words or synonyms are involved to refer to them and to describe sentiment on them. We believe that labeling existing product reviews with attributes and corresponding sentiment forms an effective training resource to perform sentiment analysis. Thirdly, sentiments expressed in a review or even in a sentence might be opposite on different attributes and not every attributes mentioned are with sentiments. For example, it is common to find a fragment of a review as follows: Example 1: \"...I am very impressed with this camera except for its a bit heavy weight especially with Figure 1 : an example of part of a SOT for digital camera extra lenses attached. It has many buttons and two main dials. The first dial is thumb dial, located near shutter button. The second one is the big round dial located at the back of the camera...\" In this example, the first sentence gives positive comment on the camera as well as a complaint on its heavy weight. Even if the words \"lenses\" appears in the review, it is not fair to say the customer expresses any sentiment on lens. The second sentence and the rest introduce the camera's buttons and dials. It's also not feasible to try to get any sentiment from these contents. We argue that when performing sentiment analysis on reviews, such as in the Example 1, more attention is needed to distinguish between attributes that are mentioned with and without sentiment.", |

| "text": "In this paper, we study the problem of sentiment analysis on product reviews through a novel method, called the HL-SOT approach, namely Hierarchical Learning (HL) with Sentiment Ontology Tree (SOT). By sentiment analysis on product reviews we aim to fulfill two tasks, i.e., labeling a target text 1 with: 1) the product's attributes (attributes identification task), and 2) their corresponding sentiments mentioned therein (sentiment annotation task). The result of this kind of labeling process is quite useful because it makes it possible for a user to search reviews on particular attributes of a product. For example, when considering to buy a digital camera, a prospective user who cares more about image quality probably wants to find comments on the camera's image quality in other users' reviews. SOT is a tree-like ontology structure that formulates the relationships between a product's attributes. For example, Fig. 1 is a SOT for a digital camera 2 . The root node of the SOT is a camera itself. Each of the non-leaf nodes (white nodes) of the SOT represents an attribute of a camera 3 . All leaf nodes (gray nodes) of the SOT represent sentiment (positive/negative) nodes respectively associated with their parent nodes. A formal definition on SOT is presented in Section 3.1. With the proposed concept of SOT, we manage to formulate the two tasks of the sentiment analysis to be a hierarchical classification problem. We further propose a specific hierarchical learning algorithm, called HL-SOT algorithm, which is developed based on generalizing an online-learning algorithm H-RLS (Cesa-Bianchi et al., 2006) . The HL-SOT algorithm has the same property as the H-RLS algorithm that allows multiple-path labeling (input target text can be labeled with nodes belonging to more than one path in the SOT) and partial-path labeling (the input target text can be labeled with nodes belonging to a path that does not end on a leaf). This property makes the approach well suited for the situation where complicated sentiments on different attributes are expressed in one target text. Unlike the H-RLS algorithm , the HL-SOT algorithm enables each classifier to separately learn its own specific threshold. The proposed HL-SOT approach is empirically analyzed against a human-labeled data set. The experimental results demonstrate promising and reasonable performance of our approach.", |

| "text": "The task of sentiment analysis on product reviews was originally performed to extract overall sentiment from the target texts. However, in (Turney, 2002) , as the difficulty shown in the experiments, the whole sentiment of a document is not necessarily the sum of its parts. Then there came up with research works shifting focus from overall document sentiment to sentiment analysis based on product attributes (Hu and Liu, 2004; Popescu and Etzioni, 2005; Ding and Liu, 2007; Liu et al., 2005) . Document overall sentiment analysis is to summarize the overall sentiment in the document. Research works related to document overall sentiment analysis mainly rely on two finer levels sentiment annotation: word-level sentiment annotation and phrase-level sentiment annotation. The wordlevel sentiment annotation is to utilize the polarity annotation of words in each sentence and summarize the overall sentiment of each sentimentbearing word to infer the overall sentiment within the text (Hatzivassiloglou and Wiebe, 2000; Andreevskaia and Bergler, 2006; Esuli and Sebastiani, 2005; Esuli and Sebastiani, 2006; Hatzivassiloglou and McKeown, 1997; Kamps et al., 2004; Devitt and Ahmad, 2007; Yu and Hatzivassiloglou, 2003) . The phrase-level sentiment annotation focuses sentiment annotation on phrases not words with concerning that atomic units of expression is not individual words but rather appraisal groups (Whitelaw et al., 2005) . In (Wilson et al., 2005) , the concepts of prior polarity and contextual polarity were proposed. This paper presented a system that is able to automatically identify the contextual polarity for a large subset of sentiment expressions. In (Turney, 2002) , an unsupervised learning algorithm was proposed to classify reviews as recommended or not recommended by averaging sentiment annotation of phrases in reviews that contain adjectives or adverbs. However, the performances of these works are not good enough for sentiment analysis on product reviews, where sentiment on each attribute of a product could be so complicated that it is unable to be expressed by overall document sentiment.", |

| "text": "Attributes-based sentiment analysis is to analyze sentiment based on each attribute of a product. In (Hu and Liu, 2004) , mining product features was proposed together with sentiment polarity annotation for each opinion sentence. In that work, sentiment analysis was performed on product attributes level. In (Liu et al., 2005) , a system with framework for analyzing and comparing consumer opinions of competing products was proposed. The system made users be able to clearly see the strengths and weaknesses of each product in the minds of consumers in terms of various product features. In (Popescu and Etzioni, 2005 ), Popescu and Etzioni not only analyzed polarity of opinions regarding product features but also ranked opinions based on their strength. In , Liu et al. proposed Sentiment-PLSA that analyzed blog entries and viewed them as a document generated by a number of hidden sentiment factors. These sentiment factors may also be factors based on product attributes. In (Lu and Zhai, 2008) , Lu et al. proposed a semi-supervised topic models to solve the problem of opinion integration based on the topic of a product's attributes. The work in (Titov and McDonald, 2008) presented a multi-grain topic model for extracting the ratable attributes from product reviews. In (Lu et al., 2009) , the problem of rated attributes summary was studied with a goal of generating ratings for major aspects so that a user could gain different perspectives towards a target entity. All these research works concentrated on attribute-based sentiment analysis. However, the main difference with our work is that they did not sufficiently utilize the hierarchical relationships among a product attributes. Although a method of ontologysupported polarity mining, which also involved ontology to tackle the sentiment analysis problem, was proposed in (Zhou and Chaovalit, 2008) , that work studied polarity mining by machine learning techniques that still suffered from a problem of ignoring dependencies among attributes within an ontology's hierarchy. In the contrast, our work solves the sentiment analysis problem as a hierarchical classification problem that fully utilizes the hierarchy of the SOT during training and classification process.", |

The requirement of a generated label vector y \u2208 Y ensures that a target text is to be labeled with a node only if its parent attribute node is labeled with the target text. For example, in Fig. 1 a review is to be labeled with \"image quality +\" requires that the review should be successively labeled as related to \"camera\" and \"image quality\". This is reasonable and consistent with intuition, because if a review cannot be identified to be related to a camera, it is not safe to infer that the review is commenting a camera's image quality with positive sentiment.", |

On the contrary, if the corrective step is set too small, it might cause the algorithm not sensitive enough to the observed mistakes. Hence, the corrective step \u03f5 is a factor that might impact the performance of the proposed approach. Fig. 2 demonstrates the impact of \u03f5 on O-Loss, S-Loss, and H-Loss. The dimensionality of index term space d is set to be 110 and 220. The value of \u03f5 is set to vary from 0.001 to 0.1 with each step of 0.001. Fig. 2 shows that the parameter \u03f5 impacts the classification performance significantly. As the value of \u03f5 increase, the O-Loss, S-Loss, and H-Loss generally increase (performance decrease). In Fig. 2c it is obviously detected that the H-Loss decreases a little (performance increase) at first before it increases (performance decrease) with further increase of the value of \u03f5. This indicates that a finer-grained value of \u03f5 will not necessarily result in a better performance on the H-loss.

Fig. 3 shows the impacts of the parameter d respectively on O-Loss, S-Loss, and H-Loss, where d varies from 50 to 300 with each step of 10 and the \u03f5 is set to be 0.005.

However, Fig. 4 shows that the computational complexity of our approach is non-linear increased with d's growing, which indicates that indexing more terms will improve the accuracy of our proposed approach although this is paid by decreasing the computing efficiency.", |

| "text": "In this paper, we propose a novel and effective approach to sentiment analysis on product reviews. In our proposed HL-SOT approach, we define SOT to formulate the knowledge of hierarchical relationships among a product's attributes and tackle the problem of sentiment analysis in a hierarchical classification process with the proposed algorithm. The empirical analysis on a humanlabeled data set demonstrates the promising results of our proposed approach. The performance comparison shows that the proposed HL-SOT approach outperforms two baselines: the HL-flat and the H-RLS approach. This confirms two intuitive motivations based on which our approach is proposed: 1) separately learning threshold values for each classifier improve the classification accuracy; 2) knowledge of hierarchical relationships of labels improve the approach's performance. The experiments on analyzing the impact of parameter \u03f5 indicate that a fine-grained corrective step generally makes a better performance than a coarsegrained corrective step. The experiments on analyzing the impact of the dimensionality d show that indexing more terms will improve the accuracy of our proposed approach while the computing efficiency will be greatly decreased.", |

However, the framework of our proposed approach can be generalized to deal with a mix of review texts of more than one products. In this generalization for sentiment analysis on multiple products reviews, a \"big\" SOT is constructed and the SOT for each product reviews is a sub-tree of the \"big\" SOT. The sentiment analysis on multiple products reviews can be performed the same way the HL-SOT approach is applied on single product reviews and can be tackled in a hierarchical classification process with the \"big\" SOT.", |

The SOT is defined to formulate this knowledge in the proposed approach. However, what attributes to be included in a product's SOT and how to structure these attributes in the SOT is an effort of human beings. The sizes and structures of SOTs constructed by different individuals may vary. How the classification performance will be affected by variances of the generated SOTs is worthy of study. In addition, an automatic method to learn a product's attributes and the structure of SOT from existing product review texts will greatly benefit the efficiency of the proposed approach. We plan to investigate on these issues in our future work.", |
