Task: Question Generation
Input (English): In order to obtain insights about why the more fine-grained bi-sense emoji embedding helps in understanding the complexed sentiments behind tweets, we visualize the attention weights for ATT-E-LSTM and MATT-BiE-LSTM for comparison. Therefore, we construct the new input INLINEFORM0 to each LSTM unit by concatenating the original word embedding and the attention vector in Equation EQREF21 to distribute the senti-emoji information to each step. This model is called Multi-level Attention-based LSTM with Bi-sense Emoji Embedding (MATT-BiE-LSTM) Attention-based LSTM with emojis:We also use the word-emoji embedding to calculate the emoji-word attention following Equation EQREF20 and EQREF21 , and the only difference is that we replace the attention-derived senti-emoji embedding with the pre-trained word-emoji embedding by fasttext, denoted as ATT-E-LSTM. In Figure FIGREF27 (a), the ATT-E-LSTM model (baseline) assigns relatively more weights on the word “no” and “pressure”, while MATT-BiE-LSTM attends mostly on the word “happy” and “lovely”. The different attention distributions suggest that the proposed senti-emoji embedding is capable of recognizing words with strong sentiments that are closely related to the true sentiment even with the presence of words with conflicting sentiments, such as “pressure” and “happy”. while ATT-E-LSTM tends to pick up all sentimental words which could raise confusions. The senti-emoji embedding is capable of extracting representations of complexed semantics and sentiments which help guide the attentions even in cases when the word sentiment and emoji sentiment are somewhat contradictory to each other. From Figure FIGREF27 (b) and (c) we can observe that the ATT-E-LSTM assigns more weights on the sentiment-irrelevant words than the MATT-BiE-LSTM such as “hoodies”, “wait” and “after”, indicating that the proposed model is more robust to irrelevant words and concentrates better on important words. Because of the senti-emoji embedding obtained through bi-sense emoji embedding and the sentence-level LSTM encoding on the text input (described in Section SECREF13 ), we are able to construct a more robust embedding based on the semantic and sentiment information from the whole context compared to the word-emoji embedding used in ATT-E-LSTM which takes only word-level information into account.
Output (English): What evidence does visualizing the attention give to show that it helps to obtain a more robust understanding of semantics and sentiments?
