Meta learning to classify intent and slot labels with noisy few shot examples
Shang-Wen Li, Jason Krone, Shuyan Dong +2
Recently deep learning has dominated many machine learning areas, including spoken language understanding (SLU). However, deep learning models are notorious for being data-hungry,…
On the Robustness of Intent Classification and Slot Labeling in Goal-oriented Dialog Systems to Real-world Noise
Sailik Sengupta, Jason Krone, Saab Mansour
Intent Classification (IC) and Slot Labeling (SL) models, which form the basis of dialogue systems, often encounter noisy data in real-word environments. In this work, we investiga…
Augmented Natural Language for Generative Sequence Labeling
Ben Athiwaratkun, Cicero Nogueira dos Santos, Jason Krone +1
We propose a generative framework for joint sequence labeling and sentence-level classification. Our model performs multiple sequence labeling tasks at once using a single, shared…
Robustification of Multilingual Language Models to Real-world Noise in Crosslingual Zero-shot Settings with Robust Contrastive Pretraining
Asa Cooper Stickland, Sailik Sengupta, Jason Krone +2
Advances in neural modeling have achieved state-of-the-art (SOTA) results on public natural language processing (NLP) benchmarks, at times surpassing human performance. However, th…
Label Semantic Aware Pre-training for Few-shot Text Classification
Aaron Mueller, Jason Krone, Salvatore Romeo +4
In text classification tasks, useful information is encoded in the label names. Label semantic aware systems have leveraged this information for improved text classification perfor…
Structured Prediction as Translation between Augmented Natural Languages
Giovanni Paolini, Ben Athiwaratkun, Jason Krone +6
We propose a new framework, Translation between Augmented Natural Languages (TANL), to solve many structured prediction language tasks including joint entity and relation extractio…
