Overcoming Catastrophic Forgetting beyond Continual Learning: Balanced Training for Neural Machine Translation (2022.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Neural networks tend to gradually forget the previously learned knowledge when learning multiple tasks sequentially from dynamic data distributions. |
| Approach: | They propose a method that iteratively provides complementary knowledge to student models by dynamically updating teacher models trained on specific data orders. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves on multiple machine translation tasks and improves performance over baseline systems. |

Counterfactual Active Learning for Out-of-Distribution Generalization (2023.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies on active learning methods focus on the out-of-distribution generalization of out- of-distortion samples. |
| Approach: | They propose a counterfactual active learning approach that empowers active learning with counterfact thinking to bridge the seen samples with unseen cases. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach outperforms existing active learning methods on public datasets with comparable IID performance. |
BranchNorm: Robustly Scaling Extremely Deep Transformers (2024.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent work on DeepNorm scales Transformers into extremely deep (1000 layers) due to the training instability of Transformers, the depths of these SOTA models are still relatively shallow. |
| Approach: | They propose a branch-rescaled model which dynamically rescales the non-residual branch of Transformer in accordance with the training period. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach significantly outperforms existing shallow models on multiple translation tasks and achieves better training stability and convergent performance. |
