Summary: Aspect-Level Sentiment Classification (ALSC) is a crucial challenge in Natural Language Processing (NLP). Most existing methods fail to consider the correlations between different instances, leading to a lack of global viewpoint. To address this issue, we propose a Retrieval Contrastive Learning (RCL) framework that extracts intrinsic knowledge across instances for improved instance representation. Experimental results demonstrate that training ALSC models with RCL leads to substantial performance improvements.
