Many techniques which have been studied for the purpose of machine translation, such as word sense disambiguation (Dagan and Itai, 1994;Yarowsky, 1995), anaphora resolution (Mitamura et al., 2002), and automatic pattern extraction from corpora (Watanabe et al., 2003), can accelerate the further enhancement of sentiment analysis, or other NLP tasks.
this work is the first step towards the integration of shallow and wide NLP, with deep NLP.
