Generating Realistic Natural Language Counterfactuals (2021.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods to explain ML tasks for natural language text are either unrealistic or introduce imperceptible changes. |
| Approach: | They propose a method that combines a conditional GAN and embeddings of a pretrained BERT encoder to model-agnostically generate realistic natural language text counterfactuals for explaining regression and classification tasks. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms baseline methods on fidelity and human judgments of naturalness across multiple datasets and multiple predictive models. |
