Low-Resource Dialogue Summarization with Domain-Agnostic Multi-Source Pretraining (2021.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for low-resource dialogue summarization neglect the difference between dialogues and conventional articles. |
| Approach: | They propose a multi-source pretraining paradigm to leverage external summary data . they exploit large-scale in-domain non-summary data to separate dialogue encoder and summary decoder . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can be used to better leverage external summary data. |
Thinking Clearly, Talking Fast: Concept-Guided Non-Autoregressive Generation for Open-Domain Dialogue Systems (2021.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing models with seq2seq framework lack ability to effectively manage concept transitions . lack of concept management strategies might lead to incoherent dialogue due to loosely connected concepts . |
| Approach: | They propose a concept-guided non-autoregressive model for open-domain dialogue generation that learns to identify multiple associated concepts from a conceptual graph and a customized Insertion Transformer to perform concept-directed generation to complete a response. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art models in automatic and human evaluations with substantially faster inference speed. |

| Challenge: | Existing approaches to textual robustness evaluation focus on slightly modifying the input data, which maintains the original meaning and results in a different prediction. |
| Approach: | They propose a multilingual robustness evaluation toolkit for NLP that integrates universal text transformations, task-specific transformations and adversarial attack. |
| Outcome: | The toolkit includes universal text transformation, task-specific transformation, adversarial attack, subpopulation, and their combinations to provide comprehensive robustness analyses. |
