bert2BERT: Towards Reusable Pretrained Language Models

Cheng Chen, Yichun Yin, Lifeng Shang +7

In recent years, researchers tend to pre-train ever-larger language models to explore the upper limit of deep models. However, large language model pre-training costs intensive com…

AutoTinyBERT: Automatic Hyper-parameter Optimization for Efficient Pre-trained Language Models

Yichun Yin, Cheng Chen, Lifeng Shang +3

Pre-trained language models (PLMs) have achieved great success in natural language processing. Most of PLMs follow the default setting of architecture hyper-parameters (e.g., the h…

Automatic Construction of Sememe Knowledge Bases via Dictionaries

Fanchao Qi, Yangyi Chen, Fengyu Wang +3

A sememe is defined as the minimum semantic unit in linguistics. Sememe knowledge bases (SKBs), which comprise words annotated with sememes, enable sememes to be applied to natural…

Extract then Distill: Efficient and Effective Task-Agnostic BERT Distillation

Cheng Chen, Yichun Yin, Lifeng Shang +4

Task-agnostic knowledge distillation, a teacher-student framework, has been proved effective for BERT compression. Although achieving promising results on NLP tasks, it requires en…

LightMBERT: A Simple Yet Effective Method for Multilingual BERT Distillation

Xiaoqi Jiao, Yichun Yin, Lifeng Shang +5

The multilingual pre-trained language models (e.g, mBERT, XLM and XLM-R) have shown impressive performance on cross-lingual natural language understanding tasks. However, these mod…
