A Short Study on Compressing Decoder-Based Language Models

Tianda Li, Yassir El Mesbahi, Ivan Kobyzev +6

Pre-trained Language Models (PLMs) have been successful for a wide range of natural language processing (NLP) tasks. The state-of-the-art of PLMs, however, are extremely large to b…

How to Select One Among All? An Extensive Empirical Study Towards the Robustness of Knowledge Distillation in Natural Language Understanding

Tianda Li, Ahmad Rashid, Aref Jafari +3

Knowledge Distillation (KD) is a model compression algorithm that helps transfer the knowledge of a large neural network into a smaller one. Even though KD has shown promise on a w…
