Charge-Based Prison Term Prediction with Deep Gating Network (D19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing work merely predicts the total prison term, but in reality a defendant is often charged with multiple crimes. |
| Approach: | They propose a charge-based prison term prediction task that better fits real needs and makes it more accurate and interpretable. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method achieves state-of-the-art performance for charge-specific feature selection and aggregation. |
A Multi-Task Incremental Learning Framework with Category Name Embedding for Aspect-Category Sentiment Analysis (2020.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Sentiment analysis is an increasingly popular natural language processing task in academia and industry. |
| Approach: | They propose to use category name encoding network to weaken catastrophic forgetting problem . they set both encoder and decoder shared among all categories to weaker the catastrophic forgetting problem a . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves state-of-the-art on two (T)ACSA benchmark datasets. |

| Challenge: | Recent studies show that transformer-based models are effective over many tasks, but they are expensive to deploy in the industrial application. |
| Approach: | They propose a transformer-based inference solution that optimizes kernels for long inputs and large hidden sizes and a flexible CUDA memory manager to reduce the memory footprint when deploying a large model. |
| Outcome: | The proposed solution achieves an average speedup of 1.40-4.20x on the transformer decoder layer with an A100 GPU. |
