RE2: Region-Aware Relation Extraction from Visually Rich Documents (2024.naacl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies on relation extraction from visually rich documents focus on layout structure and Optical Character Recognition (OCR) results. |
| Approach: | They propose a relation extraction tool that leverages layout structure among entity blocks to improve relation prediction. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms existing models on a wide range of domains and languages. |
SPUQ: Perturbation-Based Uncertainty Quantification for Large Language Models (2024.eacl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Large language models have a tendency to make confidently wrong predictions, highlighting the need for uncertainty quantification (UQ) . previous studies focused on aleatoric uncertainty, but the full spectrum of uncertainties, including epistemic, remains inadequately explored. |
| Approach: | They propose a method to quantify uncertainty in large language models (LLMs) they use a set of perturbations and an aggregation module to generalize the method. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves model uncertainty calibration and reduces expected calibration error by 50% on average. |
