DOMINO: A Dual-System for Multi-step Visual Language Reasoning

1 code implementation4 Oct 2023 Peifang Wang, Olga Golovneva, Armen Aghajanyan, Xiang Ren, Muhao Chen, Asli Celikyilmaz, Maryam Fazel-Zarandi

By fine-tuning the System-2 module (LLaMA-2 70B) on only a small amount of data on multi-step reasoning, the accuracy of our method is further improved and surpasses the best fully-supervised end-to-end approach by 5. 7% and a pipeline approach with FlanPaLM (540B) by 7. 5% on a challenging dataset with human-authored questions.

Logical Reasoning for Task Oriented Dialogue Systems

no code implementations ECNLP (ACL) 2022 Sajjad Beygi, Maryam Fazel-Zarandi, Alessandra Cervone, Prakash Krishnan, Siddhartha Reddy Jonnalagadda

We observe that transformer based models such as UnifiedQA-T5 can be fine-tuned to perform logical reasoning (such as numerical and categorical attributes' comparison) over attributes that been seen in training time (e. g., accuracy of 90\%+ for comparison of smaller than $k_{\max}$=5 values over heldout test dataset).

Dialog Simulation with Realistic Variations for Training Goal-Oriented Conversational Systems

no code implementations16 Nov 2020 Chien-Wei Lin, Vincent Auvray, Daniel Elkind, Arijit Biswas, Maryam Fazel-Zarandi, Nehal Belgamwar, Shubhra Chandra, Matt Zhao, Angeliki Metallinou, Tagyoung Chung, Charlie Shucheng Zhu, Suranjit Adhikari, Dilek Hakkani-Tur

Our approach includes a novel goal-sampling technique for sampling plausible user goals and a dialog simulation technique that uses heuristic interplay between the user and the system (Alexa), where the user tries to achieve the sampled goal.

Data Augmentation for Training Dialog Models Robust to Speech Recognition Errors

no code implementations WS 2020 Longshaokan Wang, Maryam Fazel-Zarandi, Aditya Tiwari, Spyros Matsoukas, Lazaros Polymenakos

Speech-based virtual assistants, such as Amazon Alexa, Google assistant, and Apple Siri, typically convert users' audio signals to text data through automatic speech recognition (ASR) and feed the text to downstream dialog models for natural language understanding and response generation.
