Abstract(in English) In this paper, we propose a method for rating prediction tasks in review documents. Existing models for predicting the rating scores assigned to each aspect were often developed separately. However, there is a relationship among aspects. Therefore, we apply a multi-task learning framework to our prediction models. We name this method ``Simultaneous Learning.''We evaluate our model with a review dataset about a game software domain. Each review document contains six-level rating scores for seven aspects of the game software. We utilize BERT as the base model for the prediction. Our model simultaneously learns the parameters of seven BERTs for seven aspects. In addition, we compare two types of input data for the rating prediction task: all sentences and selected sentences. Experimental results show the effectiveness of our simultaneous learning model in the multi-aspect rating prediction.
