| Challenge: | Recent work has shown pre-trained language models capture social biases from the large amounts of text they are trained on. |
| Approach: | They propose to use Counterfactual Data Augmentation, Dropout, Iterative Nullspace Projection, Self-Debias, and SentenceDebia as bias mitigation techniques to quantify their effectiveness. |
| Outcome: | The proposed techniques are Counterfactual Data Augmentation (CDA), Dropout, Iterative Nullspace Projection, Self-Debias, and SentenceDebia. |
Do Neural Topic Models Really Need Dropout? Analysis of the Effect of Dropout in Topic Modeling (2023.eacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Dropout is a regularization trick used to resolve overfitting in large feedforward neural networks, but there is nil analysis of it for unsupervised models and in particular, VAE-based neural topic models. |
| Approach: | They propose to use dropout to solve overfitting problems in unsupervised neural topic models by stochastically dropping out the activation of neurons to prevent complex co-adaptations of feature vectors. |
| Outcome: | The proposed class of neural topic models can be used to improve the quality and predictive performance of the generated topics. |
Deep Bayesian Active Learning for Natural Language Processing: Results of a Large-Scale Empirical Study (D18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies on Active Learning (AL) for natural language processing have limited data requirements. |
| Approach: | They propose a Bayesian active learning approach that reduces deep learning's data dependence by comparing models and acquisition functions. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach outperforms i.i.d. baselines and is more efficient than other approaches. |
