Visual-Linguistic Dependency Encoding for Image-Text Retrieval (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to image-text retrieval ignore semantic discrepancies caused by syntactic structure in natural language expressions and relationships among visual entities. |
| Approach: | They propose a visual-linguistic dependency encoder framework which explicitly models the dependency information among textual words and interaction patterns between image regions. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms existing methods on a vision-linguistic compositional structure reasoning dataset. |
Enhancing Text-to-SQL Parsing through Question Rewriting and Execution-Guided Refinement (2024.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing prompt engineering methods exploit database content and execution feedback to improve text-to-sql performance. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework for large language model-based text-to-sql task that exploits database content and execution feedback to improve execution accuracy. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework improves execution accuracy and usability by 12.41% and 5.38% on four widely used benchmarks. |

| Challenge: | Existing methods for long-horizon agents introduce the external memory module and look up the relevant information from the stored memory, which prevents the model from proactively managing its memory content and aligning with the agent’s overarching task objectives. |
| Approach: | They propose an algorithm which enables agents to autonomously manage their memory during interaction with environment and selectively retain crucial information. |
| Outcome: | Extensive experiments show that the proposed algorithm achieves absolute F1 score gains of 25.98 over the base model and 7.1 over the previous SOTA baseline while preserving task performance. |
