Arabic aspect sentiment polarity classification using BERT

As demonstrated by [1], Sentiment Analysis (SA) can be studied at three levels: the document level where the task is to identify sentiment polarities (positive, neutral, or negative) that is indicated throughout the entire document. The sentence level is concerned with classifying sentiments relevant to a single sentence. But the document contains many sentences and each sentence may contain multiple aspects with different sentiments, so the document and sentence level sentiment analysis may not be accurate and need another suitable type that makes this fine-grained analysis called ABSA. ABSA was first launched on SemEval-2014 [2], with the introduction of datasets containing annotated restaurant and laptop reviews. ABSA's work was largely replicated at SemEval over the next two years [3, 4] as the task has extended into various domains, languages, and challenges. SemEval-2016 provided 39 datasets in 7 domains and 8 languages for the ABSA task, additionally, the datasets were provided with Support Vector Machine (SVM) as a baseline evaluation procedure.
