| Challenge: | Existing methods on robust neural machine translation (NMT) construct adversarial examples by injecting noise into authentic examples and indiscriminately exploit two types of examples. |
| Approach: | They propose an iterative scheduled data-switch training framework to mitigate this problem by injecting noise into authentic examples and indiscriminately exploiting two types of examples. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms several competitive benchmarks on four translation benchmarks. |
Towards Better Document-level Relation Extraction via Iterative Inference (2022.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods only consider feature information of entity pairs, but our model exploits both feature information and previous predictions of entity pair. |
| Approach: | They propose a document-level relation extraction model with iterative inference to extract relations between entities from raw texts. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms existing methods on three commonly-used datasets. |
Exploring All-In-One Knowledge Distillation Framework for Neural Machine Translation (2023.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing knowledge distillation methods only obtain one lightweight student each time . this could be resource-intensive and resulting in multiple students not being optimally utilized . |
| Approach: | They propose a knowledge distillation framework which generates multiple satisfactory students at once. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework generates multiple satisfactory students at once. |
Efficient k-Nearest-Neighbor Machine Translation with Dynamic Retrieval (2024.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing models for non-parametric domain adaptation lack kNN retrieval at each timestep, leading to substantial time overhead. |
| Approach: | They propose a kNN-MT-based model that uses a domain-specific translation knowledge store to interpolate the prediction distribution of the model. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model significantly extends kNN-MT with dynamic retrieval on widely-used datasets. |
CLLE: A Benchmark for Continual Language Learning Evaluation in Multilingual Machine Translation (2022.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing benchmarks for Continual Language Learning (CLL) are limited due to the complexity of the task and the lack of unified benchmarks. |
| Approach: | They propose a Continual Language Learning Evaluation benchmark CLLE in multilingual translation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method is effective when compared with other strong benchmarks. |
