Investigating Zero- and Few-shot Generalization in Fact Verification

1 code implementation18 Sep 2023 Liangming Pan, Yunxiang Zhang, Min-Yen Kan

In this paper, we explore zero- and few-shot generalization for fact verification (FV), which aims to generalize the FV model trained on well-resourced domains (e. g., Wikipedia) to low-resourced domains that lack human annotations.

Toward Optimized VR/AR Ergonomics: Modeling and Predicting User Neck Muscle Contraction

1 code implementation28 Aug 2023 Yunxiang Zhang, Kenneth Chen, Qi Sun

Leveraging electromyography devices, we measure, model, and predict VR users' neck muscle contraction levels (MCL) while they move their heads to interact with the virtual environment.

SituatedGen: Incorporating Geographical and Temporal Contexts into Generative Commonsense Reasoning

2 code implementations NeurIPS 2023 Yunxiang Zhang, Xiaojun Wan

Generative commonsense reasoning is the task that requires machines, given a group of keywords, to compose a single coherent sentence with commonsense plausibility.

Force-Aware Interface via Electromyography for Natural VR/AR Interaction

no code implementations3 Oct 2022 Yunxiang Zhang, Benjamin Liang, Boyuan Chen, Paul Torrens, S. Farokh Atashzar, Dahua Lin, Qi Sun

Closing the gap between real-world physicality and immersive virtual experience requires a closed interaction loop: applying user-exerted physical forces to the virtual environment and generating haptic sensations back to the users.

CC-Riddle: A Question Answering Dataset of Chinese Character Riddles

2 code implementations28 Jun 2022 Fan Xu, Yunxiang Zhang, Xiaojun Wan

Solving Chinese character riddles is a challenging task that demands understanding of character glyph, general knowledge, and a grasp of figurative language.

Interpreting the Robustness of Neural NLP Models to Textual Perturbations

no code implementations Findings (ACL) 2022 Yunxiang Zhang, Liangming Pan, Samson Tan, Min-Yen Kan

In this work, we test the hypothesis that the extent to which a model is affected by an unseen textual perturbation (robustness) can be explained by the learnability of the perturbation (defined as how well the model learns to identify the perturbation with a small amount of evidence).

BiRdQA: A Bilingual Dataset for Question Answering on Tricky Riddles

no code implementations23 Sep 2021 Yunxiang Zhang, Xiaojun Wan

A riddle is a question or statement with double or veiled meanings, followed by an unexpected answer.

MOVER: Mask, Over-generate and Rank for Hyperbole Generation

1 code implementation NAACL 2022 Yunxiang Zhang, Xiaojun Wan

In this paper, we tackle the challenging task of hyperbole generation to transfer a literal sentence into its hyperbolic paraphrase.

CaPC Learning: Confidential and Private Collaborative Learning

1 code implementation ICLR 2021 Christopher A. Choquette-Choo, Natalie Dullerud, Adam Dziedzic, Yunxiang Zhang, Somesh Jha, Nicolas Papernot, Xiao Wang

There is currently no method that enables machine learning in such a setting, where both confidentiality and privacy need to be preserved, to prevent both explicit and implicit sharing of data.

Demystify Painting with RL

no code implementations CUHK Course IERG5350 2020 Linning Xu, Yunxiang Zhang

Given an image of an arbitrary scene, experienced artists are skillful at accurately perceiving the visual contents within the scene, such as objects, lighting, and tint, and presenting them in different painting styles.

Exploiting Channel Similarity for Accelerating Deep Convolutional Neural Networks

no code implementations6 Aug 2019 Yunxiang Zhang, Chenglong Zhao, Bingbing Ni, Jian Zhang, Haoran Deng

To address the limitations of existing magnitude-based pruning algorithms in cases where model weights or activations are of large and similar magnitude, we propose a novel perspective to discover parameter redundancy among channels and accelerate deep CNNs via channel pruning.

Max-plus Operators Applied to Filter Selection and Model Pruning in Neural Networks

1 code implementation19 Mar 2019 Yunxiang Zhang, Samy Blusseau, Santiago Velasco-Forero, Isabelle Bloch, Jesus Angulo

Following recent advances in morphological neural networks, we propose to study in more depth how Max-plus operators can be exploited to define morphological units and how they behave when incorporated in layers of conventional neural networks.
