Enhance Multi-domain Sentiment Analysis of Review Texts through Prompting Strategies

Large Language Models (LLMs) have made significant strides in both scientific research and practical applications. Existing studies have demonstrated the state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance of LLMs in various natural language processing tasks. However, the question of how to further enhance LLMs' performance in specific task using prompting strategies remains a pivotal concern. This paper explores the enhancement of LLMs' performance in sentiment analysis through the application of prompting strategies. We formulate the process of prompting for sentiment analysis tasks and introduce two novel strategies tailored for sentiment analysis: RolePlaying (RP) prompting and Chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting. Specifically, we also propose the RP-CoT prompting strategy which is a combination of RP prompting and CoT prompting. We conduct comparative experiments on three distinct domain datasets to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed sentiment analysis strategies. The results demonstrate that the adoption of the proposed prompting strategies leads to a increasing enhancement in sentiment analysis accuracy. Further, the CoT prompting strategy exhibits a notable impact on implicit sentiment analysis, with the RP-CoT prompting strategy delivering the most superior performance among all strategies.

A Hierarchical Collision Avoidance Architecture for Multiple Fixed-Wing UAVs in an Integrated Airspace

This paper studies the collision avoidance problem for autonomous multiple fixedwing UAVs in the complex integrated airspace. By studying and combining the online path planning method, the distributed model predictive control algorithm, and the geometric reactive control approach, a three-layered collision avoidance system integrating conflict detection and resolution procedures is developed for multiple fixed-wing UAVs modeled by unicycle kinematics subject to input constraints. The effectiveness of the proposed methodology is evaluated and validated via test results of comparative simulations under both deterministic and probabilistic sensing conditions.
