Efficient Shapley Values Estimation by Amortization for Text Classification (2023.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Shapley Values are often estimated with a small number of stochastic model evaluations, but this can only be mitigated by aggregating thousands of model evaluation. |
| Approach: | They propose to combine a model with thousands of model evaluations to estimate Shapley Values without additional model evaluation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model estimates Shapley Values accurately with up to 60 times speedup compared to traditional methods and does not suffer from stability issues as inference is deterministic. |

| Challenge: | Existing approaches to improve LLM reasoning are limited in complex domains and lack external grounding makes verifiers unreliable on computation-intensive tasks. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that transforms reward modeling into a multi-turn, tool-augmented deliberative process. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework surpasses state-of-the-art ORMs by 25.2% under parallel and sequential TTS. |
Selecting and Merging: Towards Adaptable and Scalable Named Entity Recognition with Large Language Models (2025.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to align large language models with information extraction tasks are costly and not all training data benefits target domains. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework which dynamically Selects and Merges expert models at inference time and combines experts beneficial to target domains. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms the unified model by 10% on multiple benchmarks. |
Fusion-in-T5: Unifying Variant Signals for Simple and Effective Document Ranking with Attention Fusion (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Current document ranking pipelines involve multiple ranking layers to integrate different information step-by-step. |
| Approach: | They propose a novel re-ranker Fusion-in-T5 which integrates text matching information, ranking features, and global document information into one single unified model via templated-based input and global attention. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model significantly improves ranking performance over complex cascade pipelines. |
