A Pragmatics-Centered Evaluation Framework for Natural Language Understanding (2022.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a number of studies have suggested that models induce universal text representations . current benchmarks focus on semantic phenomena, so pragmatics needs to be the focus . |
| Approach: | They propose a benchmark that unites 11 pragmatics-focused evaluation datasets for English. |
| Outcome: | The proposed benchmark shows that natural language inference does not result in genuinely universal representations. |
