Enhancing BERT Classification by Increasing Training Corpus Using Paraphrasing
摘要
Sentiment Analysis usually classifies a sentence by label it with positive or negative. Previous to apply a classification model, we need a big corpus with many diverse cases. In this paper we run different paraphrasing techniques over the IMDB reviews dataset increasing the number of sentences. We tested such augmented corpus using a BERT classification model. The results: without paraphrasing, the BERT model obtained 90% of f-measure; and with paraphrasing we obtained between 99.56% and 99.86%.
