| Challenge: | Existing works of knowledge infusion depend on multi-task learning frameworks, which are inefficient and require large-scale retraining when new knowledge is considered. |
| Approach: | They propose a method which integrates knowledge-generated attention maps into the self-attention mechanism and integrates it into the model. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms existing methods on academic datasets and industry-scale ad relevance applications. |
Syntax-BERT: Improving Pre-trained Transformers with Syntax Trees (2021.eacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Pre-trained language models like BERT achieve superior performances in various NLP tasks without explicit consideration of syntactic information. |
| Approach: | They propose a plug-and-play framework that incorporates syntax trees into pre-trained Transformers. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework improves on pre-trained models on natural language understanding datasets and shows that it can be used to train pre-structured neural networks. |
