A Deep Decomposable Model for Disentangling Syntax and Semantics in Sentence Representation (2021.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent advances in disentanglement work on coarse levels in the disenanglement of closely related properties, such as syntax and semantics in human languages. |
| Approach: | They propose a deep decomposable model based on VAE to disentangle syntax and semantics by using total correlation penalties on KL divergences. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model significantly improves the disentanglement quality between syntactic and semantic representations for semantic similarity tasks and syntaktic similarity task. |
