Niranjan Uma Naresh, Ziyan Jiang, Ankit +4
Conversational understanding is an integral part of modern intelligent devices. In a large fraction of the global traffic from customers using smart digital assistants, frictions i…
Learning to Selectively Learn for Weakly-supervised Paraphrase Generation
Kaize Ding, Dingcheng Li, Alexander Hanbo Li +4
Paraphrase generation is a longstanding NLP task that has diverse applications for downstream NLP tasks. However, the effectiveness of existing efforts predominantly relies on larg…
Pattern-aware Data Augmentation for Query Rewriting in Voice Assistant Systems
Yunmo Chen, Sixing Lu, Fan Yang +3
Query rewriting (QR) systems are widely used to reduce the friction caused by errors in a spoken language understanding pipeline. However, the underlying supervised models require…
Pre-Training for Query Rewriting in A Spoken Language Understanding System
Zheng Chen, Xing Fan, Yuan Ling +2
Query rewriting (QR) is an increasingly important technique to reduce customer friction caused by errors in a spoken language understanding pipeline, where the errors originate fro…
Knowledge Distillation from Internal Representations
Gustavo Aguilar, Yuan Ling, Yu Zhang +3
Knowledge distillation is typically conducted by training a small model (the student) to mimic a large and cumbersome model (the teacher). The idea is to compress the knowledge fro…
End-to-end Anchored Speech Recognition
Yiming Wang, Xing Fan, I-Fan Chen +3
Voice-controlled house-hold devices, like Amazon Echo or Google Home, face the problem of performing speech recognition of device-directed speech in the presence of interfering bac…
