Learning domain information for a downstream task is important to improve the performance of sentiment analysis. However, the labeling task to obtain a sufficient amount of training data in an application domain tends to be highly time-consuming and tedious. To solve this problem, we propose a novel method to effectively learn domain information and improve sentiment analysis performance with a small amount of training data. We use the masked language model (MLM), which is a self-supervised learning model, to calculate word weights and improve a downstream fine-tuning task for sentiment analysis. In particular, the MLM with the calculated word weights is executed simultaneously with the fine-tuning task. The results show that the proposed model achieves better performances than previous models in four different datasets for sentiment analysis.
