"abstract": "Syntactic structures have been good features for opinion analysis, but it is not easy to use them. To find these features by supervised learning methods, correct syntactic labels are indispensible. Two possible sources to acquire syntactic structures are parsing trees and dependency trees. For the annotation processing, parsing trees are more readable for annotators, while dependency trees are easier to use by programs. To use syntactic structures as features, this paper tried to annotate on human friendly materials and transform these annotations to the corresponding machine friendly materials. We annotated the gold answers of opinion syntactic structures on the parsing tree from Chinese Treebank, and then proposed methods to find their corresponding dependency relations on the dependency trees generated from the same sentence. With these relations, we could train a model to annotate opinion dependency relations automatically to provide an opinion dependency parser, which is language independent if language resources are incorporated. Experiment results show that the annotated syntactic structures and their corresponding dependency relations improve at least 8% of the performance of opinion analysis.", |

To find opinions in product reviews, modification relations were used to identify the product and their features (Lu et al., 2009) , e.g., a good price (feature) of this camera (product). To find opinion holders and targets, templates and linguistic rules were adopted (Breck et al., 2007) . To find more opinion words, dependency relations were utilized (Qiu et al., 2011) . Even when applying the basic negation rule that flips opinion polarity over, we need to find its modified word first by syntactic clues.

"text": "Syntactic relations are obtained usually from all kinds of syntax trees. Parsing trees (phrase structured) and dependency trees (grammatical) are the most commonly seen ones. Parsing trees are in-order trees which keep the order of words in sentences, so they are more readable for people. Instead, nodes in dependency trees are displayed by the head-modifier relations, in which the sentence sequence probably is not remained. People could find the opinion passages if they can understand the whole sentence, i.e. from parsing trees. However, when the linguistic background is needed, it could be difficult for most people to reconstruct the whole sentence from the dependency trees in order to find the opinion passage. Therefore, if we want to find annotators to build a corpus which could be used to train an opinion relation recognizer, parsing trees are the better materials compared to dependency trees. However, compared to relations between words, complicated tree structures are more challenge to be utilized by algorithms (Doan et al., 2008) . This paper focuses on extracting opinionated dependency relations from relations generated by the Stanford parser. We design an annotation mechanism on the syntactic structures on the sentence from Chinese Treebank to create an annotation environment with a lower entry barrier so that sufficient annotations can be labeled. Then these annotations are aligned to the relations in the corresponding dependency trees generated by the same parser from the same sentence as the gold standard for training the automatic annotator of the opinion dependency relations. We conduct experiments on the annotated opinion syntactic structures in parsing trees, and on the opinion dependency relations corresponding to them. The proposed process demonstrates a feasible direction toward the development of an opinion dependency parser.", |

"text": "Given a set of non-collapsed dependencies parsed from a specific sentence by the Stanford dependency parser (de Marneffe and Manning, 2008; Chang et al., 2009) , each associated with a dependency relation between two words in this sentence, our goal is to identify which of them are with sentiment, i.e., those which reveal a part of opinions or the aroused emotions. For example, in the sentence \"\u6d3b\u52a8 \u53d6\u5f97 \u4e86 \u5706\u6ee1 \u6210\u529f (Activities scored le perfect success)\", the Stanford dependency parser gives three relations: nmod(\u6210\u529f <success>, \u5706 \u6ee1 <perfect>), nsubj( \u53d6 \u5f97 <scored>, \u6d3b \u52a8 <activities>), dobj(\u53d6\u5f97 <scored>, \u6210\u529f<success>), and asp(\u53d6\u5f97 <scored>, \u4e86<le>). The goal is to identify the former three may bear sentiment or opinions. The corresponding dependency tree is shown in Figure 1 . From Figure 1 we can also see that it is not easy to read the original sentence without the linguistic background. Formally, the collection of the noncollapsed dependency relations of a sentence S, generated by the Stanford dependency parser, is denoted by Rdep(S) = {r 1 , r 2 , \u2026}, where each ) (S Rdep r i \uf0ce is associate with an opinion judgment of op(r).", |

At the end, a total of 54,753 relations gop(r) were set to true. Table 2 . Statistics of structural trios. Table 1 shows the distribution of the opinion and polarity labels. Table 2 shows the statistics of trios. Trios of the Substantive-Modifier and Verb-Object types are the majority in opinion sentences, while trios of the Verb-Complement type are few. Table 3 further shows the distribution of dependency relations. It shows that previously the most adopted dependency relations for opinion analysis, e.g., amod (adjective modifier) or advmod (adverb modifier), do not certainly bear opinions or appear in opinion sentences. In Section 4.3, we will further test the performance of finding the opinionated relations with the help of the opinion word dictionary, which was also widely adopted by previous work (Feng et al., 2009) .", |

The percentage of a relation appearing in dependency trees of opinion sentences when bearing opinions (gop(r) equals true), i.e., the value in F column, is taken as the support value. The support value indicates that in what degree this relation bears opinions. If the support value is high, it is confident to say that the relation is opinionated; otherwise, considering the content words is necessary. This idea conforms to the previous observation in Section 4.2: some of the opinions are structural, but not all of them. According to the support value, dependency relations were divided into four categories. The Chinese opinion word dictionary NTUSD is involved to help identify opinion dependency relations when the support value is not high. The selecting criteria are listed as follows. \uf06c Very supportive: with the support value above 0.8, e.g., dvpmod. Relations in this category are viewed as opinionated and their gop(r) are automatically set to true. \uf06c Supportive: with the support value above 0.35 but lower than 0. 8, e.g., pass, dobj, npsubj, ba, top, nsubj, neg, amod, rcmod Table 6 .

In order to make use of these structural cues, opinion analysis methods proposed by were selected. Their methods calculated opinion scores of sentences from characters and words accumulatively, so syntactic cues can be added in and function jointly. Five settings for opinion analysis were experimented: \uf06c C+W+N: characters, words, and negations were used as cues for calculating opinion scores. It was the original method proposed by Ku et al. \uf06c C+W+N+goldTrio: annotated opinion trios were utilized additionally. \uf06c C+W+N+Trio: predicted opinion trios were utilized additionally. \uf06c C+W+N+goldDep: opinion dependency relations aligned from the annotated trios were utilized additionally. \uf06c C+W+N+Dep: predicted opinion dependency relations were utilized additionally. The results were shown in Table 7 . The performance of the opinion extraction improves 10.40% (0.7162->0.7993) when utilizing opinion trios and 8.66% (0.7162->0.7782) when utilizing opinion dependency relations. These results clearly indicate that the syntactic information benefit opinion analysis. Because of the possible information loss in the automatic alignment process, that the performance of using trios is a little better than using dependency relations matches our expectation. Table 7 .

Yet there are still several lines of related work, including (i) opinion analysis (ii) opinion corpora (iii) syntactic information. Several dozen papers have been published on the topic of opinion analysis. Two general approaches have been proposed previously. They are machine learning approaches and heuristicrule approaches. For both approaches, syntactic structures could be utilized. For the former, they can be used as features (Abbasi et al., 2008) ; for the later, rules can be designed according to them (Ku et al., 2009) .
