ICT-NLP system ranks high in SemEval-2026 sentiment analysis task

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers from ICT-NLP have developed a novel system for dimensional aspect sentiment regression, achieving top rankings in the SemEval-2026 Task 3. Their approach utilizes a multilingual encoder with joint training and an adaptive ensemble, eschewing large language models for efficiency. This method demonstrated strong cross-lingual transfer capabilities and improved training stability, leading to high performance across multiple datasets. AI

IMPACT Presents a novel, efficient approach to sentiment analysis that could inform future research in multilingual NLP.

    ICT-NLP at SemEval-2026 Task 3: Less Is More -- Multilingual Encoder with Joint Training and Adaptive Ensemble for Dimensional Aspect Sentiment Regression

    This paper describes our system to SemEval-2026 Task 3 Track A Subtask 1 on Dimensional Aspect Sentiment Regression (DimASR). We propose a lightweight and resource-efficient system built entirely on multilingual pre-trained encoders, without relying on LLMs or external corpora. W…
