Most existing methods regard the aspect category detection as a flat classification problem. However, aspect categories are inter-related, and they are usually organized with a hierarchical tree structure. To leverage the structure information, this paper proposes a hierarchical multi-label classification model to detect aspect categories and uses a graph enhanced transformer network to integrate label dependency information into prediction features. Experiments have been conducted on four widely-used benchmark datasets, showing that the proposed model outperforms all strong baselines.展开更多
