GRIM: GRaph-based Interactive narrative visualization for gaMes

no code implementations15 Nov 2023 Jorge Leandro, Sudha Rao, Michael Xu, Weijia Xu, Nebosja Jojic, Chris Brockett, Bill Dolan

\textbf{GRIM}, a prototype \textbf{GR}aph-based \textbf{I}nteractive narrative visualization system for ga\textbf{M}es, generates a rich narrative graph with branching storylines that match a high-level narrative description and constraints provided by the designer.

Reprompting: Automated Chain-of-Thought Prompt Inference Through Gibbs Sampling

no code implementations17 May 2023 Weijia Xu, Andrzej Banburski-Fahey, Nebojsa Jojic

We introduce Reprompting, an iterative sampling algorithm that searches for the Chain-of-Thought (CoT) recipes for a given task without human intervention.

Recognition and Co-Analysis of Pedestrian Activities in Different Parts of Road using Traffic Camera Video

no code implementations27 Nov 2021 Weijia Xu, Heidi Ross, Joel Meyer, Kelly Pierce, Natalia Ruiz Juri, Jennifer Duthie

The goal for this research is to understand the correlation between bus stop locations and mid-block crossings, so as to assist traffic engineers in implementing Vision Zero strategies to improve pedestrian safety.

Rule-based Morphological Inflection Improves Neural Terminology Translation

1 code implementation EMNLP 2021 Weijia Xu, Marine Carpuat

Current approaches to incorporating terminology constraints in machine translation (MT) typically assume that the constraint terms are provided in their correct morphological forms.

How Does Distilled Data Complexity Impact the Quality and Confidence of Non-Autoregressive Machine Translation?

no code implementations Findings (ACL) 2021 Weijia Xu, Shuming Ma, Dongdong Zhang, Marine Carpuat

While non-autoregressive (NAR) models are showing great promise for machine translation, their use is limited by their dependence on knowledge distillation from autoregressive models.

Dual Reconstruction: a Unifying Objective for Semi-Supervised Neural Machine Translation

no code implementations Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2020 Weijia Xu, Xing Niu, Marine Carpuat

While Iterative Back-Translation and Dual Learning effectively incorporate monolingual training data in neural machine translation, they use different objectives and heuristic gradient approximation strategies, and have not been extensively compared.

Convolutional Neural Network Training with Distributed K-FAC

3 code implementations1 Jul 2020 J. Gregory Pauloski, Zhao Zhang, Lei Huang, Weijia Xu, Ian T. Foster

Training neural networks with many processors can reduce time-to-solution; however, it is challenging to maintain convergence and efficiency at large scales.

Flexible Non-Autoregressive Neural Machine Translation via Repositioning Edit Operations

no code implementations WS 2020 Weijia Xu, Marine Carpuat

We introduce an iterative text refinement model to reduce the decoding space of non-autoregressive models by disentangling the token prediction and relative position prediction.

End-to-End Slot Alignment and Recognition for Cross-Lingual NLU

3 code implementations EMNLP 2020 Weijia Xu, Batool Haider, Saab Mansour

We introduce MultiATIS++, a new multilingual NLU corpus that extends the Multilingual ATIS corpus to nine languages across four language families, and evaluate our method using the corpus.

Differentiable Sampling with Flexible Reference Word Order for Neural Machine Translation

1 code implementation NAACL 2019 Weijia Xu, Xing Niu, Marine Carpuat

Despite some empirical success at correcting exposure bias in machine translation, scheduled sampling algorithms suffer from a major drawback: they incorrectly assume that words in the reference translations and in sampled sequences are aligned at each time step.

Bi-Directional Differentiable Input Reconstruction for Low-Resource Neural Machine Translation

1 code implementation NAACL 2019 Xing Niu, Weijia Xu, Marine Carpuat

We aim to better exploit the limited amounts of parallel text available in low-resource settings by introducing a differentiable reconstruction loss for neural machine translation (NMT).
