ASCEND: A Spontaneous Chinese-English Dataset for Code-switching in Multi-turn Conversation

2 code implementations LREC 2022 Holy Lovenia, Samuel Cahyawijaya, Genta Indra Winata, Peng Xu, Xu Yan, Zihan Liu, Rita Frieske, Tiezheng Yu, Wenliang Dai, Elham J. Barezi, Qifeng Chen, Xiaojuan Ma, Bertram E. Shi, Pascale Fung

ASCEND (A Spontaneous Chinese-English Dataset) is a high-quality Mandarin Chinese-English code-switching corpus built on spontaneous multi-turn conversational dialogue sources collected in Hong Kong.

Automatic Speech Recognition Datasets in Cantonese: A Survey and New Dataset

1 code implementation LREC 2022 Tiezheng Yu, Rita Frieske, Peng Xu, Samuel Cahyawijaya, Cheuk Tung Shadow Yiu, Holy Lovenia, Wenliang Dai, Elham J. Barezi, Qifeng Chen, Xiaojuan Ma, Bertram E. Shi, Pascale Fung

We further conduct experiments with Fairseq S2T Transformer, a state-of-the-art ASR model, on the biggest existing dataset, Common Voice zh-HK, and our proposed MDCC, and the results show the effectiveness of our dataset.

Modality-based Factorization for Multimodal Fusion

no code implementations WS 2019 Elham J. Barezi, Peyman Momeni, Pascale Fung

We propose a novel method, Modality-based Redundancy Reduction Fusion (MRRF), for understanding and modulating the relative contribution of each modality in multimodal inference tasks.

A Submodular Feature-Aware Framework for Label Subset Selection in Extreme Classification Problems

no code implementations NAACL 2019 Elham J. Barezi, Ian D. Wood, Pascale Fung, Hamid R. Rabiee

We can then solve efficiently the problem of multi-label learning with an intractably large number of interdependent labels, such as automatic tagging of Wikipedia pages.

On the Effectiveness of Low-Rank Matrix Factorization for LSTM Model Compression

no code implementations27 Aug 2019 Genta Indra Winata, Andrea Madotto, Jamin Shin, Elham J. Barezi, Pascale Fung

Despite their ubiquity in NLP tasks, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks suffer from computational inefficiencies caused by inherent unparallelizable recurrences, which further aggravates as LSTMs require more parameters for larger memory capacity.

A Study on the Autoregressive and non-Autoregressive Multi-label Learning

no code implementations3 Dec 2020 Elham J. Barezi, Iacer Calixto, Kyunghyun Cho, Pascale Fung

These tasks are hard because the label space is usually (i) very large, e. g. thousands or millions of labels, (ii) very sparse, i. e. very few labels apply to each input document, and (iii) highly correlated, meaning that the existence of one label changes the likelihood of predicting all other labels.

Towards Answering Open-ended Ethical Quandary Questions

no code implementations12 May 2022 Yejin Bang, Nayeon Lee, Tiezheng Yu, Leila Khalatbari, Yan Xu, Samuel Cahyawijaya, Dan Su, Bryan Wilie, Romain Barraud, Elham J. Barezi, Andrea Madotto, Hayden Kee, Pascale Fung

We explore the current capability of LLMs in providing an answer with a deliberative exchange of different perspectives to an ethical quandary, in the approach of Socratic philosophy, instead of providing a closed answer like an oracle.
