Slot Transferability for Cross-domain Slot Filling (2021.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing work on slot filling uses labeled data from source domains to train a model for target domains. |
| Approach: | They propose a model-agnostic Slot Transferability Measure (STM) to evaluate the transferability from a source slot to a target slot. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art models on multiple datasets and models. |
Task-Oriented Clustering for Dialogues (2021.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for task-oriented dialogue clustering are difficult to apply directly due to inherent differences between them. |
| Approach: | They propose a Dialogue Task Clustering Network model for task-oriented clustering . they use context-aware utterance representations and cross-dialogue utterrance cluster representations . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms baselines on three public datasets on all metrics. |
Profanity-Avoiding Training Framework for Seq2seq Models with Certified Robustness (2021.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a recent study shows that inappropriate language can cause models to output profanity . authors propose a training framework to prevent such outputs from hurting the usability of models . |
| Approach: | proposed training framework eliminates the causes that trigger the generation of profanity . authors propose a framework that leverages a short list of profans to prevent this . |
| Outcome: | a proposed training framework can prevent models from generating profanity . the proposed framework leverages a short list of profanities examples . |
