Although risk prediction from textual information is one of the main applications in financial #NLProc current research still depends heavily on dictionaries!

Employing a joint model to automatically extract opinion targets and detect their sentiments sounds like a "two birds one stone" approach. I'd still like to see a comparison with two separate models when it comes to the error for margin & computing time #IJCAI #IJCAI2019 #NLProc pic.twitter.com/6RU0W1bUBr
