Unsupervised Data Augmentation with Naive Augmentation and without Unlabeled Data (2021.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Unsupervised Data Augmentation (UDA) is a semisupervised learning method that penalizes differences between a model's predictions on unlabeled examples and corresponding 'noised' examples produced via data augmentation. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a consistency loss to penalize differences between models' predictions on unlabeled and unlabed examples to enforce consistency between models and their perturbed counterparts. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method is able to penalize differences between models' outputs on unlabeled and unlabed examples without complex data augmentation. |
