Climbing towards NLU: On Meaning, Form, and Understanding in the Age of Data (2020.acl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a priori, large neural language models are described as understanding or capturing meaning on tasks that are ostensibly meaningsensitive. |
| Approach: | They argue that a system trained only on form has no way to learn meaning . they argue that this is due to a misunderstanding of the relationship between form and meaning - which is a misconception in NLP . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can't learn meaning because it only uses form as training data, the authors argue . they argue that a clear understanding of the distinction between form and meaning will guide the field towards better science around natural language understanding. |
