XAI-enhanced Comparative Opinion Mining via Aspect-based Scoring and Semantic Reasoning

Comparative opinion mining involves comparing products from different reviews. However, transformer-based models designed for this task often lack transparency, which can adversely hinder the development of trust in users. In this paper, we propose XCom, an enhanced transformer-based model separated into two principal modules, i.e., (i) aspect-based rating prediction and (ii) semantic analysis for comparative opinion mining. XCom also incorporates a Shapley additive explanations module to provide interpretable insights into the model's deliberative decisions. Empirically, XCom achieves leading performances compared to other baselines, which demonstrates its effectiveness in providing meaningful explanations, making it a more reliable tool for comparative opinion mining.

Comparing Without Saying: A Dataset and Benchmark for Implicit Comparative Opinion Mining from Same-User Reviews

Existing studies on comparative opinion mining have mainly focused on explicit comparative expressions, which are uncommon in real-world reviews. This leaves implicit comparisons - here users express preferences across separate reviews - largely underexplored. We introduce SUDO, a novel dataset for implicit comparative opinion mining from same-user reviews, allowing reliable inference of user preferences even without explicit comparative cues. SUDO comprises 4,150 annotated review pairs (15,191 sentences) with a bi-level structure capturing aspect-level mentions and review-level preferences. We benchmark this task using two baseline architectures: traditional machine learning- and language model-based baselines. Experimental results show that while the latter outperforms the former, overall performance remains moderate, revealing the inherent difficulty of the task and establishing SUDO as a challenging and valuable benchmark for future research.

Knowledge Graph Enrichment and Reasoning for Nobel Laureates

This project aims to construct and analyze a comprehensive knowledge graph of Nobel Prize and Laureates by enriching existing datasets with biographical information extracted from Wikipedia. Our approach integrates multiple advanced techniques, consisting of automatic data augmentation using LLMs for Named Entity Recognition (NER) and Relation Extraction (RE) tasks, and social network analysis to uncover hidden patterns within the scientific community. Furthermore, we also develop a GraphRAG-based chatbot system utilizing a fine-tuned model for Text2Cypher translation, enabling natural language querying over the knowledge graph. Experimental results demonstrate that the enriched graph possesses small-world network properties, identifying key influential figures and central organizations. The chatbot system achieves a competitive accuracy on a custom multiple-choice evaluation dataset, proving the effectiveness of combining LLMs with structured knowledge bases for complex reasoning tasks.
