KINNEWS and KIRNEWS: Benchmarking Cross-Lingual Text Classification for Kinyarwanda and Kirundi (2020.coling-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | low-resource African languages are traditionally left behind because of the lack of well-annotated data and effective preprocessing. |
| Approach: | They propose two news datasets for multi-class classification of news articles in two low-resource African languages. |
| Outcome: | The proposed datasets show that training embeddings on the higher-resourced Kinyarwanda yields successful cross-lingual transfer to Kirundi. |
Enhancing Document-level Event Argument Extraction with Contextual Clues and Role Relevance (2023.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Document-level event argument extraction is a challenging task for cross-sentence inference . previous work focused on document-level EAE, but recent work focused more on documentlevel . |
| Approach: | They propose a document-level event argument extraction model that captures contextual clues and latent role information. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms existing methods on two public datasets with 1.13 F1 and 2.64 F1 improvements on RAMS and WikiEvents respectively. |
Adaptive Textual Label Noise Learning based on Pre-trained Models (2023.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to learning with noisy labels are limited due to the time and labor costs involved. |
| Approach: | They propose an adaptive warm-up and hybrid training frameworks to learn with noisy labels based on pre-trained models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach performs comparable or even surpasses state-of-the-art methods in various noise scenarios, including scenarios with the mixture of multiple types of noise. |
