Abstract: Aspect-based Sentiment Analysis(ABSA) is a fine-grained sentiment analysis task,which aimes at identifying specific aspects in text and exploring their sentiment orientation.To solve the problem of poor performance of ABSA model due to its in-ability to adapt to different domain language styles and lack of labeled data in target domain,this paper proposes a cross-domain aspect-based sentiment analysis method combined with pre-trained model.The pretraining model is used to generate labels for the target domain text,and the large language model is used to regenerate natural sentences with more target domain style.Finally,the generated samples and source domain samples are combined for training to predict the target domain.This experimental results on the restaurant and laptop datasets from the SemEval corpus,as well as a publicly available Web service review dataset show that,compared to existing cross-domain sentiment analysis methods,the proposed method achieves at least a 5.33% improvement in F1 score,fully demonstrating its effectiveness.
