Noise-injected Consistency Training and Entropy-constrained Pseudo Labeling for Semi-supervised Extractive Summarization (2022.coling-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies on semi-supervised learning methods focus on how to effectively utilize abundant unlabeled data. |
| Approach: | They propose a semi-supervised consistency training method to regularize model predictions and a pseudo-labeling strategy to obtain high-confidence labels from unlabeled predictions. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves extractive summarization over an insufficient labeled dataset. |
LLM-Based Multi-Hop Question Answering with Knowledge Graph Integration in Evolving Environments (2024.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for knowledge editing in Large Language Models face difficulties with multi-hop questions that require accurate fact identification and sequential logical reasoning. |
| Approach: | They propose a method that merges explicit knowledge representations of Knowledge Graphs with the linguistic flexibility of Large Language Models to convert free-form language into structured queries and fact triples. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method significantly surpasses state-of-the-art knowledge editing methods in the multi-hop question answering benchmark, MQuAKE. |

DisCo: Distilled Student Models Co-training for Semi-supervised Text Mining (2023.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing text mining models are fine-tuned by fine-timing a large pre-trained language model (PLM) in downstream tasks. |
| Approach: | They propose a semi-supervised learning framework for fine-tuning a cohort of small student models generated from a large pre-trained language model using knowledge distillation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms baseline models on semi-supervised text classification and extractive summarization tasks while maintaining comparable performance. |
