De-Confounded Variational Encoder-Decoder for Logical Table-to-Text Generation (2021.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Logical table-to-text generation is challenging where deep learning models capture surface-level spurious correlations rather than the causal relationships between the table x and the sentence y. |
| Approach: | They propose to use variational inference to estimate the confounders in the latent space and cooperate with the causal intervention based on Pearl’s do-calculus to alleviate the spurious correlations. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms baselines and achieves new state-of-the-art performance on two logical table-to-text datasets in terms of logical fidelity. |
