Papers with context-aware decoding
Trusting Your Evidence: Hallucinate Less with Context-aware Decoding (2024.naacl-short)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Language models (LMs) often struggle to pay enough attention to the input context, and generate texts that are unfaithful or contain hallucinations. |
| Approach: | They propose a context-aware decoding technique that amplifies the difference between the output probabilities when a model is used with and without context. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model significantly improves faithfulness of different LM families including OPT, GPT, LLaMA, and FLAN-T5 for summarization tasks. |
Context-aware Decoder for Neural Machine Translation using a Target-side Document-Level Language Model (2021.naacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Neural machine translation models that incorporate inter-sentential contexts can be trained only in document-level parallel data with sentential alignments. |
| Approach: | They propose a method to perform context-aware decoding with any pre-trained translation model . their method uses sentence-level parallel data and target-side document-level monolingual data . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method performs context-aware decoding on English to Russian translation using BLEU and contrastive tests. |
Zero-Shot Context-Aware ASR for Diverse Arabic Varieties (2026.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Large-scale multilingual ASR has substantially improved recognition for high-resource languages. |
| Approach: | They propose a proxy-guided -best selection paradigm that conditions inference on external side information without parameter updates. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model reduces WER by 15.6% relative and recovers a fraction of oracle n-best gains on the common voice MSA testbed. |
