# FABSA, An aspect-based sentiment analysis dataset in the Customer Feedback space (Trustpilot, Google Play and Apple Store reviews).

A professionally annotated dataset released by [Chattermill AI](https://chattermill.com/), with 8 years of experience in leveraging advanced ML analytics in the customer feedback space for high-profile clients such as Amazon and Uber.

Two annotators possess extensive experience in developing human-labeled ABSA datasets for commercial companies, while the third annotator holds a PhD in computational linguistics.

## Task

This dataset encompasses **Aspect Category Sentiment Analysis** and is suitable for both **Aspect Category Detection** (ACD) and **Aspect Category Sentiment Classification** (ACSC). ACD in sentiment analysis identifies aspect categories mentioned in a sentence. These categories are conceptual; they may not explicitly appear in the review and are chosen from a predefined list of Aspect Categories. ACSC classifies the sentiment polarities of these conceptual aspect categories.

The predefined list of Aspect Categories for this dataset are:
```
                                    category                            category_code
0         Account management: Account access        account-management.account-access
1                  Company brand: Competitor                 company-brand.competitor
2        Company brand: General satisfaction       company-brand.general-satisfaction
3                     Company brand: Reviews                    company-brand.reviews
4                     Logistics rides: Speed                    logistics-rides.speed
5             Online experience: App website            online-experience.app-website
6   Purchase booking experience: Ease of use  purchase-booking-experience.ease-of-use
7           Staff support: Attitude of staff          staff-support.attitude-of-staff
8                       Staff support: Email                      staff-support.email
9                       Staff support: Phone                      staff-support.phone
10               Value: Discounts promotions               value.discounts-promotions
11              Value: Price value for money              value.price-value-for-money
```

## Annotation Scheme

The FABSA dataset is manually labeled according to a hierarchical annotation scheme that includes parent and child aspect categories. Each aspect category comes with an associated sentiment label (positive, negative, and neutral), creating a total of (12 × 3) target classification categories.

In line with prior studies, we employ a multi-label classification scheme where each review is tagged with one or more aspect + sentiment labels. Thus, a single review can cover multiple aspects and express various (sometimes contrasting) polarities. For example,
```
Customer Review:
“product is very good but customer service is really bad, they never respond”	
Labels: [Company brand: General satisfaction, positive), (Staff support: Attitude of staff, Negative)"
```

## Release

There has been a lack of high-quality ABSA datasets covering broad domains and addressing real-world applications. Academic progress has been confined to benchmarking on domain-specific, toy datasets such as restaurants and laptops, which are limited in size (e.g., [SemEval Task ABSA](https://aclanthology.org/S16-1002.pdf) or [SentiHood](https://aclanthology.org/C16-1146/)).

This dataset is part of the [FABSA paper](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0925231223009906), and we release it hoping to advance academic progress as tools for ingesting and analyzing customer feedback at scale improve significantly, yet evaluation datasets continue to lag. FABSA is a new, large-scale, multi-domain ABSA dataset of feedback reviews, consisting of approximately 10,500 reviews spanning 10 domains (Fashion, Consulting, Travel Booking, Ride-hailing, Banking, Trading, Streaming, Price Comparison, Information Technology, and Groceries).
