| Challenge: | Existing pre-trained language models that ignore the logical structures underlying natural language text often lack the ability to capture and encode key logical information in the input sequences. |
| Approach: | They propose to construct logic-aware input embeddings for transformer language models through logic detection, logic mapping and hierarchical logical projections and then develop a new modeling paradigm that can upgrade existing transformer language model into logical transformers to boost their performance. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can achieve superior performance on four important and challenging tasks. |
