MT-ISA teaches smaller models to understand hidden sentiments by learning from LLM-generated insights
MT-ISA framework enhances implicit sentiment analysis by combining LLMs with multi-task learning, using automatic weight adjustments to handle uncertainties at data and task levels.

🤔 Original Problem:
→ Implicit sentiment analysis struggles with hidden opinions due to lack of clear sentiment words
→ Traditional models have limited reasoning capabilities and insufficient data for learning implicit patterns
→ LLMs can hallucinate, leading to unreliable sentiment analysis
-----
🔧 Solution in this Paper:
→ MT-ISA uses LLMs to generate auxiliary sentiment elements like aspects and opinions
→ The framework implements data-level automatic weight learning with three strategies: input scaling, output re-weighting, and combined approach
→ Task-level automatic weight learning uses homoscedastic uncertainty to balance primary and auxiliary tasks
→ Self-refining strategy with polarity intervention ensures reliable generation
-----
💡 Key Insights:
→ Different model sizes show distinct preferences - base models work better with input strategy, while larger models excel with output strategy
→ Automatic weight learning eliminates manual tuning and adapts to model capabilities
→ Combining data-level and task-level weight learning significantly improves performance
-----
📊 Results:
→ Achieves state-of-the-art performance on Restaurant14 and Laptop14 datasets
→ XXL model with output strategy reaches 92.68% accuracy on Restaurant14
→ Base model with input strategy achieves 82.91% accuracy on Laptop14
