Papers with factuality prediction
He Thinks He Knows Better than the Doctors: BERT for Event Factuality Fails on Pragmatics (2021.tacl-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing models for factuality prediction are lacking for English . Traditionally, event factualism is triggered by fixed properties of lexical items . |
| Approach: | They propose a model that exploits common surface patterns that correlate with factuality labels. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves the best performance on four factuality datasets. |
Lexicosyntactic Inference in Neural Models (D18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | lexicosyntactic inferences are triggered by surprising aspects of the syntactical context that a word occurs in. |
| Approach: | They build a factuality judgment dataset for English clause-embedding verbs in various syntactic contexts and use it to probe the behavior of current state-of-the-art neural systems. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model makes systematic errors that are visible through the lens of factuality prediction. |
