This repository contains a pretrained model (and an easy-to-run wrapper for it) for structured sentiment analysis in Norwegian language, pre-trained on the NoReC_fine dataset. This is an implementation of the method described in

The main repository that also contains the scripts for training the model, can be found on the project github. The model is also available in the form of a HF space.

The sentiment graph model is based on an underlying masked language model – NorBERT 2. The proposed method suggests three different ways to encode the sentiment graph: "node-centric", "labeled-edge", and "opinion-tuple". The current model

• uses "labeled-edge" graph encoding
• does not use character-level embedding
• all other hyperparameters are set to default values , and it achieves the following results on the held-out set of the dataset:

The model can be easily used for predicting sentiment tuples as follows:

>>> import model_wrapper
>>> model = model_wrapper.PredictionModel()
>>> model.predict(['vi liker svart kaffe'])
[{'sent_id': '0',
  'text': 'vi liker svart kaffe',
  'opinions': [{'Source': [['vi'], ['0:2']],
    'Target': [['svart', 'kaffe'], ['9:14', '15:20']],
    'Polar_expression': [['liker'], ['3:8']],
    'Polarity': 'Positive'}]}]
