This paper describes our system that participated in the SemEval-2022 Task 10: Structured Sentiment Analysis, which aims to extract opinion tuples from texts.A full opinion tuple generally contains an opinion holder, an opinion target, the sentiment expression, and the corresponding polarity.The complex structure of the opinion tuple makes the task challenging.To address this task, we formalize it as a span-relation extraction problem and propose a two-stage extraction framework accordingly.In the first stage, we employ the span module to enumerate spans and then recognize the type of every span.In the second stage, we employ the relation module to determine the relation between spans.Our system achieves competitive results and ranks among the top-10 systems in almost subtasks.
