NL2pSQL: Generating Pseudo-SQL Queries from Under-Specified Natural Language Questions (D19-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing studies focus on generating SQL codes from natural language questions . however, questions cover more diverse tasks including table manipulation or performance issues .
Approach: They propose a task to generate pSQL codes from natural language questions . they define two new metrics suitable for the task, Canonical-BLEU and SQL-BLUE .
Outcome: The proposed task generates well-formed queries on under-specified database issues.
Continuous Decomposition of Granularity for Neural Paraphrase Generation (2022.coling-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Prior work has shown that decomposing sentences at different levels of granularity has improved paragraph generation.
Approach: They propose a model for continuous decomposing granularity for neural paraphrase generation that incorporates granules into attention.
Outcome: The proposed model outperforms baseline models on Quora question pairs and Twitter URLs on two benchmarks.
Query-Efficient Black-Box Red Teaming via Bayesian Optimization (2023.acl-long)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing methods for generating test cases and querying fail to be query-efficient . generative models can be used for open-domain dialogue, prompt continuation, text-to-image generation .
Approach: They propose a query-efficient method that iteratively finds diverse positive test cases leading to model failures by utilizing user input and past evaluations.
Outcome: The proposed method finds a significantly larger number of diverse positive test cases under limited query budget than baseline methods.
Pivotal Role of Language Modeling in Recommender Systems: Enriching Task-specific and Task-agnostic Representation Learning (2023.acl-long)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Recent studies have proposed unified user modeling frameworks that leverage user behavior data from various applications.
Approach: They propose to use user behavior sequences as plain text to represent rich information in any domain or system without losing generality.
Outcome: The proposed frameworks achieve excellent results on diverse recommendation tasks and can be used on unseen domains and services.
SQuARe: A Large-Scale Dataset of Sensitive Questions and Acceptable Responses Created through Human-Machine Collaboration (2023.acl-long)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing studies focus on coping with social harms that large language models pose . however, discussions on sensitive issues can become toxic even if the users are well-intentioned.
Approach: They propose to use Korean dataset to test whether LLMs can generate offensive content and propagate prejudices.
Outcome: The proposed dataset shows that acceptable response generation improves for HyperCLOVA and GPT-3.
Context-Aware Answer Extraction in Question Answering (2020.emnlp-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Extractive QA models have shown promising performance in predicting the correct answer to a given question.
Approach: They propose a BLANC-based context prediction task that learns the context prediction tasks.
Outcome: The proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art models on reading comprehension and hotpotQA.
On the Effect of Pretraining Corpora on In-context Learning by a Large-scale Language Model (2022.naacl-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Recent studies on large-scale in-context language models have reported successful in-const zero- and few-shot learning ability.
Approach: They investigate the effects of the pretraining corpus on in-context learning in a Korean-centric model.
Outcome: The study shows that pretraining corpus size does not determine in-context learning ability . the findings suggest that in-constext learning is not always competitive .
AlphaTuning: Quantization-Aware Parameter-Efficient Adaptation of Large-Scale Pre-Trained Language Models (2022.findings-emnlp)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing approaches to improve inference efficiency by accelerating model fine-tuning have not been thoroughly explored.
Approach: They propose to combine parameter-efficient adaptation and model compression to accelerate model . they propose to freeze binary parameters and scale scaling factors for target tasks .
Outcome: The proposed algorithm achieves >10x compression ratio under 4-bit quantization and >1,000x reduction in trainable parameters.
Weakly Supervised Pre-Training for Multi-Hop Retriever (2021.findings-acl)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing methods for weakly supervised multi-hop pretraining require costly human annotation.
Approach: They propose a method for weakly supervised multi-hop retriever pretraining without human efforts by generating vector representations of complex questions and subquestion as weak supervision for pre-training.
Outcome: The proposed method is effective and robust on limited data and computational resources.
Two-Step Question Retrieval for Open-Domain QA (2022.findings-acl)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing question retrieval models have shown a significant increase in inference speed but at the cost of lower QA performance compared to the retriever-reader pipeline.
Approach: They propose a two-step question retrieval model with distant supervision to improve inference speed.
Outcome: The proposed model significantly increases the performance of existing question retrieval models with a negligible loss on inference speed.
