Length Control in Abstractive Summarization by Pretraining Information Selection

1 code implementation ACL 2022 Yizhu Liu, Qi Jia, Kenny Zhu

In this paper, we propose a length-aware attention mechanism (LAAM) to adapt the encoding of the source based on the desired length.

Reference-free Summarization Evaluation via Semantic Correlation and Compression Ratio

1 code implementation NAACL 2022 Yizhu Liu, Qi Jia, Kenny Zhu

In this paper, we propose a new automatic reference-free evaluation metric that compares semantic distribution between source document and summary by pretrained language models and considers summary compression ratio.

ChatMatch: Evaluating Chatbots by Autonomous Chat Tournaments

1 code implementation ACL 2022 Ruolan Yang, Zitong Li, Haifeng Tang, Kenny Zhu

Existing automatic evaluation systems of chatbots mostly rely on static chat scripts as ground truth, which is hard to obtain, and requires access to the models of the bots as a form of “white-box testing”.

Does My Dog ''Speak'' Like Me? The Acoustic Correlation between Pet Dogs and Their Human Owners

no code implementations21 Sep 2023 Jieyi Huang, Chunhao Zhang, YuFei Wang, Mengyue Wu, Kenny Zhu

How hosts language influence their pets' vocalization is an interesting yet underexplored problem.

Towards Lexical Analysis of Dog Vocalizations via Online Videos

no code implementations21 Sep 2023 YuFei Wang, Chunhao Zhang, Jieyi Huang, Mengyue Wu, Kenny Zhu

This study presents a data-driven investigation into the semantics of dog vocalizations via correlating different sound types with consistent semantics.

ExtRA: Extracting Prominent Review Aspects from Customer Feedback

1 code implementation EMNLP 2018 Zhiyi Luo, Shanshan Huang, Frank F. Xu, Bill Yuchen Lin, Hanyuan Shi, Kenny Zhu

Many existing systems for analyzing and summarizing customer reviews about products or service are based on a number of prominent review aspects.

Controlling Length in Abstractive Summarization Using a Convolutional Neural Network

1 code implementation EMNLP 2018 Yizhu Liu, Zhiyi Luo, Kenny Zhu

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have met great success in abstractive summarization, but they cannot effectively generate summaries of desired lengths.

Adaptive Multi-Task Transfer Learning for Chinese Word Segmentation in Medical Text

1 code implementation COLING 2018 Junjie Xing, Kenny Zhu, Shaodian Zhang

Chinese word segmentation (CWS) trained from open source corpus faces dramatic performance drop when dealing with domain text, especially for a domain with lots of special terms and diverse writing styles, such as the biomedical domain.

Multi-channel BiLSTM-CRF Model for Emerging Named Entity Recognition in Social Media

no code implementations WS 2017 Bill Y. Lin, Frank Xu, Zhiyi Luo, Kenny Zhu

In this paper, we present our multi-channel neural architecture for recognizing emerging named entity in social media messages, which we applied in the Novel and Emerging Named Entity Recognition shared task at the EMNLP 2017 Workshop on Noisy User-generated Text (W-NUT).
