Automatic Detection of Generated Text is Easiest when Humans are Fooled (2020.acl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent advances in neural language modelling make it possible to rapidly generate vast amounts of human-sounding text. |
| Approach: | They compare decoding methods with popular sampling-based decoding strategies . they show that multi-sentence excerpts can fool expert human raters over 30% of the time . |
| Outcome: | The proposed methods improve with longer excerpt length, but multi-sentence excerpts fool human raters over 30% of the time. |

| Challenge: | a lack of high quality conversational data is limiting progress in dialog systems . we present a dataset of 13,215 task-based dialogs . |
| Approach: | They propose a task-based dialog dataset which includes 13,215 task-related dialogs . they use a two-person, spoken "Wizard of Oz" approach and a "self-dialog" approach . |
| Outcome: | The taskmaster-1 dataset contains 13,215 task-based dialogs comprising six domains. |
The Importance of Generation Order in Language Modeling (D18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Neural language models are universally autoregressive, generating sentences one token at a time from left to right. |
| Approach: | They propose a two-pass language model that generates partially-filled sentences and fills in missing tokens. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model produces partially-filled sentences and fills in missing tokens. |
