Cross-lingual sentiment analysis is a task of identifying sentiment polarities of texts in a low-resource language by using sentiment knowledge in a resource-abundant language. While most existing approaches are driven by transfer learning, their performance does not reach to a promising level due to the transferred errors. In this paper, we propose to integrate into knowledge transfer a knowle...

Dictionary methods for cross-language information retrieval have shown performance below that for mono-lingual retrieval. Failure to translate multi-term phrases has been shown to be one of the factors responsible for the errors associated with dictionary methods. First, we study the importance of phrasal translation for this approach. Second, we explore the role of phrases in query expansion v...
