| Challenge: | Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable success across a wide range of tasks, however, they still face challenges in reasoning tasks that require understanding and inferring relationships between distinct pieces of information within text sequences. |
| Approach: | They propose to construct explicit graphs from context and leverage them to enhance LLM reasoning performance on reasoning tasks. |
| Outcome: | Extensive experiments show that the proposed method improves both logical reasoning and multi-hop question answering tasks. |
Learn to Cross-lingual Transfer with Meta Graph Learning Across Heterogeneous Languages (2020.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing mPLM-based methods focus on designing costly model pre-training while ignoring equally crucial downstream adaptation. |
| Approach: | They propose a meta graph learning method that extracts meta-knowledge from historical CLT experiences to learn to cross-lingual transfer. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method can learn to cross-lingual transfer by extracting meta-knowledge from historical CLT experiences (tasks) it can also capture intrinsic language relationships to explicitly guide cross-linguistic transfer. |
