Lifelong Explainer for Lifelong Learners (2021.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing explanation methods are inefficient when explaining a static black-box model. |
| Approach: | They propose a Lifelong Explanation approach that continuously trains a student explainer under the supervision of a teacher on different tasks undertaken in LL. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach can be extended to include a teacher and maintain the same level of faithfulness to the black-box model as the student explainer while being up to 102 times faster at test time. |
The Context-Dependent Additive Recurrent Neural Net (N18-1)

| Challenge: | Contextual sequence mapping is one of the fundamental problems in Natural Language Processing (NLP). |
| Approach: | They propose a new family of Recurrent Neural Networks that address contextual sequence mapping . they propose to use contextual signals to control the flow of information . |
| Outcome: | The proposed architecture outperforms existing methods on dialog problem and language model . the proposed architectures are based on a novel family of recurrent neural networks . |

| Challenge: | Norm violations occur when individuals fail to conform to culturally accepted behaviors, which may lead to potential conflicts. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a large corpus of 9,258 multi-turn dialogues annotated with social norms to equip AI systems with a remediation ability. |
| Outcome: | The proposed system can understand and remediate norm violations step by step. |
Learning to Explain: Generating Stable Explanations Fast (2021.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for explaining outcome of machine learning models produce explanations, or rationales, which identify the attributions of features in an input example. |
| Approach: | They propose a Learning to Explain approach that learns the behaviour of an underlying explanation algorithm simultaneously from all training examples. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach is 5 to 7.5104 times faster than existing models and has comparable faithfulness to the black-box model. |
Let’s Negotiate! A Survey of Negotiation Dialogue Systems (2024.findings-eacl)

Haolan Zhan, Yufei Wang, Zhuang Li, Tao Feng, Yuncheng Hua, Suraj Sharma, Lizhen Qu, Zhaleh Semnani Azad, Ingrid Zukerman, Reza Haf
| Challenge: | Recent research has focused on negotiation dialogue systems, but no systematic review of this task has been conducted. |
| Approach: | They propose to provide a systematic review of negotiation dialogue systems and to provide an overview of current research. |
| Outcome: | The proposed systems are based on the literature and are compared against existing systems. |
