Document Modeling with Gated Recurrent Neural Network for Sentiment Classification

Document level sentiment classification remains a challenge: encoding the intrin-sic relations between sentences in the se-mantic meaning of a document. To ad-dress this, we introduce a neural network model to learn vector-based document rep-resentation in a unified, bottom-up fash-ion. The model first learns sentence rep-resentation with convolutional neural net-work or long short-term memory. After-wards, semantics of sentences and their relations are adaptively encoded in docu-ment representation with gated recurren-t neural network. We conduct documen-t level sentiment classification on four large-scale review datasets from IMDB and Yelp Dataset Challenge. Experimen-tal results show that: (1) our neural…
