From Characters to Words: Hierarchical Pre-trained Language Model for Open-vocabulary Language Understanding (2023.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Current models for natural language understanding require a preprocessing step to convert raw text into discrete tokens. |
| Approach: | They propose a hierarchical open-vocabulary language model that adopts a shallow Transformer architecture to learn word representations from their characters and a deep inter-word Transformer module that contextualizes each word representation by attending to the entire word sequence. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms baselines on various downstream tasks and is robust to textual corruption and domain shift. |
