SetFit Aspect Model with sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2

This is a SetFit model that can be used for Aspect Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA). This SetFit model uses sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2 as the Sentence Transformer embedding model. A LogisticRegression instance is used for classification. In particular, this model is in charge of filtering aspect span candidates.

The model has been trained using an efficient few-shot learning technique that involves:

Fine-tuning a Sentence Transformer with contrastive learning.
Training a classification head with features from the fine-tuned Sentence Transformer.

This model was trained within the context of a larger system for ABSA, which looks like so:

Use a spaCy model to select possible aspect span candidates.
Use this SetFit model to filter these possible aspect span candidates.
Use a SetFit model to classify the filtered aspect span candidates.

aspect	'food:They made it into more American food, added burgers and ribs and got rid of the tequila selection. We were so bummed. Used to be one of our favorite places to go for good Mexican food. The owner said the new direction was to appeal to more tourists.' "seating:Such a cute little spot for desserts! I'm so glad we had time on our short visit to Santa Barbara to grab a slice of cake from here. My husband and I each got our own to slice to share of course. He said we didn't come all this way just to get one so we chose a slice of the berry cake and chocolate decadence. The berry cake was nice and fluffy without being too sweet. The acidity from the fruits balanced the sweetest of the cake wonderfully. If you're up for something rich then the chocolate decadence will not disappoint. Service was great and seating was comfortable. Order your sweet treats at the counter then a number will be given to you. Pick a table and get ready to enjoy because your sweets will be brought out to your table when ready." 'food:One brisk Saturday morning after asking workers during a stop for tylenol from the Hotel California Boutique the best breakfast place, they recommended Goat Tree. We crossed the busy street and greeted the hostess. The very kind young lady walked us to our table on the sunny patio. We skimmed the menu and decided on the chicken and waffle and a chocolate croissant. The wait was quite short and we spent it discussing the beautiful surrounding area. Soon, our food was delivered, and let me tell you, it was beautiful. On top of that, it was scrumptious. The fried chicken was perfect and tender. The waffle had the perfect balance of crunch and fluff. And how dare I forget the exquisite honey. Now this honey was the best I have ever tasted. It was topped with chia and pumpkin seeds. My daughter asked for her croissant warmed, and once again it was marvelous. After paying, I told our waitress how amazing the honey was. Next thing we knew, she brought out two large to go cups full of it! \n\nAbsolutely loved this place and everything about it. 100% recommend! I strongly award them 5 stars!'
