Abstract Current aspect-based sentiment analysis methods typically extract sentiment features through dependency tree and attention mechanism. These methods are susceptible to noise from irrelevant contextual information and often neglect to model the global sentiment features of sentences, making it difficult to process sentences that implicitly express sentiment. To address these problems, a contrastive learning based multi-view feature fusion model for aspect-based sentiment analysis(CLMVFF) is proposed. First, graph convolutional networks are utilized to encode information in dependency graph, constituent graph and semantic graph. The global sentiment node is constructed in each graph to learn global sentiment features while introducing external knowledge embedding to enrich sentiment features. Second, contrastive learning is exploited to mitigate the negative influence of noise. Combined with the similarity separation, the sentiment features are enhanced. Finally, the dependency graph representation, constituent graph representation, semantic graph representation and external knowledge embeddings are fused. Experimental results on three datasets demonstrate that CLMVFF achieves the improvement of performance.
