How Transferable are Attribute Controllers on Pretrained Multilingual Translation Models? (2024.eacl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Pretrained multilingual translation models with massive coverage are becoming of the backbone of many translation systems. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a gradient-based inference-time controller to control a pretrained multilingual model by using a model with attribute annotations. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model performs well on pretrained multilingual models and is attribute- rather than language-specific. |
Mix and Match: Learning-free Controllable Text Generationusing Energy Language Models (2022.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent work on controlled text generation has required attribute-based fine-tuning of the base language model or restricted the parameterization of the attribute discriminator. |
| Approach: | They propose a global score-based alternative for controllable text generation that combines arbitrary pre-trained black-box models for achieving desired attributes in the generated text. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms methods that require extra training or fine-tuning . the proposed method is based on a model with energy values of a linear combination of scores from black-box models . |
Control Large Language Models via Divide and Conquer (2024.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Lexically Constrained Generation (LCG) is a crucial task of text generation. |
| Approach: | They propose a Divide and Conquer Generation strategy to enhance LLMs' performance in Lexically Constrained Generation with prompt-based controlling. |
| Outcome: | The proposed strategy shows 90% improvement on the most challenging LCG task. |
Sentence Smith: Controllable Edits for Evaluating Text Embeddings (2025.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Controllable and transparent text generation has been a long-standing goal in NLP . but previous approaches were hindered by parsing and generation insufficiencies . |
| Approach: | They propose a framework for English that has three steps: 1. Parsing a sentence into a semantic graph. 2. Applying human-designed semantic manipulation rules. 3. Generating text from the manipulated graph. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework for English is based on a neural network and parsers. |
