Disfluency detection is usually an intermediate step between an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system and a downstream task.

However, we show that self-training - a semi-supervised technique for incorporating unlabeled data - sets a new state-of-the-art for the self-attentive parser on disfluency detection, demonstrating that self-training provides benefits orthogonal to the pre-trained contextualized word representations.

In recent years, the natural language processing community has moved away from task-specific feature engineering, i. e., researchers discovering ad-hoc feature representations for various tasks, in favor of general-purpose methods that learn the input representation by themselves.
