Constructing contrastive samples via summarization for text classification with limited annotations (2021.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Various contrastive learning methods have been developed and lead to state-of-the-art performance in many computer vision tasks. |
| Approach: | They propose a method to construct efficient contrastive samples using text summarization to gain better representations of text classification tasks with limited annotations. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework gains better representations on text classification tasks with limited annotations and is compared with existing methods on real-world text classification datasets. |
Triple-Encoders: Representations That Fire Together, Wire Together (2024.acl-long)

| Challenge: | Existing search-based dialog models re-encode the dialog history at every turn, causing high cost. |
| Approach: | They propose a method that encodes relative distances between utterances via a bi-encoder . they use a hebbian-inspired co-occurrence learning objective to compute distributed utterrance mixtures . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves on bi-encoded utterances and even better generalization . it can encode 2020 and Erker et al. (2023) with the same results. |
Segmentation-free compositional n-gram embedding (N19-1)

| Challenge: | Existing word embedding models depend on word segmentation, but this method is difficult when corpora written in noisy or unsegmented languages. |
| Approach: | They propose a new method that models words, phrases and sentences seamlessly without word segmentation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method is very effective for noisy corpora written in unsegmented languages such as Chinese and Japanese. |

| Challenge: | Existing Named Entity Recognition systems are typically trained on a large-scale dataset with predefined entity classes, then deployed for entity recognition on the test data without further adaptation or refinement. |
| Approach: | They propose a representation learning method that adaptively detects entity clusters in "O" and two effective distance-based relabeling strategies for better learning the old classes. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method achieves 10.62% improvement over the baseline methods. |
