Zero-shot Sharpness-Aware Quantization for Pre-trained Language Models (2023.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing zero-shot quantization methods are based on overfitting problem in adversarial learning process, leading to sub-optimal performance. |
| Approach: | They propose a zero-shot sharpness-aware quantization framework for the quantization of various PLMs by optimizing a minimax problem. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework can achieve significant performance gains on discriminative and generative PLMs. |
Image Difference Captioning via Adversarial Preference Optimization (2025.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing supervised approaches to image difference captioning overfit to dataset-specific language patterns and fail to capture accurate preferences. |
| Approach: | They propose an adversarial direct preference optimization framework that aligns captioning policy with pairwise difference preferences via Direct Preference Optimization. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach outperforms baselines on benchmark IDC datasets in generating fine-grained and accurate difference descriptions. |
