© 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG. Appropriate paragraph embedding is critical for sentiment classification. However, the embedding for paragraph with polarity shift is very challenging and insufficiently explored. In this paper, a MUlti-Scale and Hierarchical embedding method, MUSH, is proposed to learn a more accurate paragraph embedding for polarity shift sensitive sentiment classification. MUSH adopts CNN with multi-size filters to reveal multi-scale sentiment atoms and utilizes hierarchical multi-line CNN-RNN structures to simultaneously capture polarity shift in both sentence level and paragraph level. Extensive experiments on four large real-world data sets demonstrate that the MUSH-enabled sentiment classification significantly enhances the accuracy compared with three state-of-the-art and four baseline competitors.
