Unicoder: A Universal Language Encoder by Pre-training with Multiple Cross-lingual Tasks (D19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing models that can handle cross-lingual tasks with limited or no training data are insensitive to different languages. |
| Approach: | They propose to use Unicoder to train models in one language and apply it to other languages. |
| Outcome: | Experiments show that Unicoder learns the mappings among different languages from more perspectives. |
A Table-to-Text Framework with Heterogeneous Multidominance Attention and Self-Evaluated Multi-Pass Deliberation (2023.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Table-to-text works have been widely applied in different domains, such as weather forecast and financial report generation. |
| Approach: | They propose a table-to-text approach on top of Self-evaluated multi-pass Generation and Heterogenous Multidominance Attention to explore the hierarchical structure. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms several SOTA methods quantitatively and qualitatively on three public datasets. |
Document Modeling with Graph Attention Networks for Multi-grained Machine Reading Comprehension (2020.acl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to machine reading comprehension treat documents at their hierarchical nature, ignoring their dependencies. |
| Approach: | They propose a machine reading comprehension benchmark with two-grained answers . they use graph attention networks to model documents at their hierarchical nature . |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms existing systems at long and short answer criteria. |
