Continual Few-Shot Learning for Text Classification

1 code implementation EMNLP 2021 Ramakanth Pasunuru, Veselin Stoyanov, Mohit Bansal

In this work, we propose a continual few-shot learning (CFL) task, in which a system is challenged with a difficult phenomenon and asked to learn to correct mistakes with only a few (10 to 15) training examples.

Prompt-free and Efficient Few-shot Learning with Language Models

1 code implementation ACL 2022 Rabeeh Karimi Mahabadi, Luke Zettlemoyer, James Henderson, Lambert Mathias, Marzieh Saeidi, Veselin Stoyanov, Majid Yazdani

Current methods for few-shot fine-tuning of pretrained masked language models (PLMs) require carefully engineered prompts and verbalizers for each new task to convert examples into a cloze-format that the PLM can score.

Towards A Unified View of Sparse Feed-Forward Network in Pretraining Large Language Model

no code implementations23 May 2023 Zeyu Leo Liu, Tim Dettmers, Xi Victoria Lin, Veselin Stoyanov, Xian Li

Large and sparse feed-forward layers (S-FFN) such as Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) have proven effective in scaling up Transformers model size for \textit{pretraining} large language models.

Do Language Models Have Beliefs? Methods for Detecting, Updating, and Visualizing Model Beliefs

1 code implementation26 Nov 2021 Peter Hase, Mona Diab, Asli Celikyilmaz, Xian Li, Zornitsa Kozareva, Veselin Stoyanov, Mohit Bansal, Srinivasan Iyer

In this paper, we discuss approaches to detecting when models have beliefs about the world, and we improve on methods for updating model beliefs to be more truthful, with a focus on methods based on learned optimizers or hypernetworks.

General Purpose Text Embeddings from Pre-trained Language Models for Scalable Inference

no code implementations Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2020 Jingfei Du, Myle Ott, Haoran Li, Xing Zhou, Veselin Stoyanov

The resulting method offers a compelling solution for using large-scale pre-trained models at a fraction of the computational cost when multiple tasks are performed on the same text.

SemEval-2013 Task 2: Sentiment Analysis in Twitter

no code implementations SEMEVAL 2013 Preslav Nakov, Zornitsa Kozareva, Alan Ritter, Sara Rosenthal, Veselin Stoyanov, Theresa Wilson

To address this issue, we have proposed SemEval-2013 Task 2: Sentiment Analysis in Twitter, which included two subtasks: A, an expression-level subtask, and B, a message-level subtask.

Unsupervised Cross-lingual Representation Learning at Scale

26 code implementations ACL 2020 Alexis Conneau, Kartikay Khandelwal, Naman Goyal, Vishrav Chaudhary, Guillaume Wenzek, Francisco Guzmán, Edouard Grave, Myle Ott, Luke Zettlemoyer, Veselin Stoyanov

We also present a detailed empirical analysis of the key factors that are required to achieve these gains, including the trade-offs between (1) positive transfer and capacity dilution and (2) the performance of high and low resource languages at scale.

Emerging Cross-lingual Structure in Pretrained Language Models

no code implementations ACL 2020 Shijie Wu, Alexis Conneau, Haoran Li, Luke Zettlemoyer, Veselin Stoyanov

We study the problem of multilingual masked language modeling, i. e. the training of a single model on concatenated text from multiple languages, and present a detailed study of several factors that influence why these models are so effective for cross-lingual transfer.

Bridging the domain gap in cross-lingual document classification

1 code implementation16 Sep 2019 Guokun Lai, Barlas Oguz, Yiming Yang, Veselin Stoyanov

We consider the setting of semi-supervised cross-lingual understanding, where labeled data is available in a source language (English), but only unlabeled data is available in the target language.

RoBERTa: A Robustly Optimized BERT Pretraining Approach

59 code implementations26 Jul 2019 Yinhan Liu, Myle Ott, Naman Goyal, Jingfei Du, Mandar Joshi, Danqi Chen, Omer Levy, Mike Lewis, Luke Zettlemoyer, Veselin Stoyanov

Language model pretraining has led to significant performance gains but careful comparison between different approaches is challenging.
