Noun2Verb: Probabilistic frame semantics for word class conversion
Lei Yu, Yang Xu
Humans can flexibly extend word usages across different grammatical classes, a phenomenon known as word class conversion. Noun-to-verb conversion, or denominal verb (e.g., to Googl…
Enabling arbitrary translation objectives with Adaptive Tree Search
Wang Ling, Wojciech Stokowiec, Domenic Donato +4
We introduce an adaptive tree search algorithm, that can find high-scoring outputs under translation models that make no assumptions about the form or structure of the search objec…
Documentation based Semantic-Aware Log Parsing
Lei Yu, Tian Wu, Jiaqi Li +3
With the recent advances of deep learning techniques, there are rapidly growing interests in applying machine learning to log data. As a fundamental part of log analytics, accurate…
Predicting emergent linguistic compositions through time: Syntactic frame extension via multimodal chaining
Lei Yu, Yang Xu
Natural language relies on a finite lexicon to express an unbounded set of emerging ideas. One result of this tension is the formation of new compositions, such that existing lingu…
Diverse Pretrained Context Encodings Improve Document Translation
Domenic Donato, Lei Yu, Chris Dyer
We propose a new architecture for adapting a sentence-level sequence-to-sequence transformer by incorporating multiple pretrained document context signals and assess the impact on…
Pretraining the Noisy Channel Model for Task-Oriented Dialogue
Qi Liu, Lei Yu, Laura Rimell +1
Direct decoding for task-oriented dialogue is known to suffer from the explaining-away effect, manifested in models that prefer short and generic responses. Here we argue for the u…
