SlimLM: An Efficient Small Language Model for On-Device Document Assistance

Thang M. Pham, Phat T. Nguyen, Seunghyun Yoon +3

While small language models (SLMs) show promises for mobile deployment, their real-world performance and applications on smartphones remains underexplored. We present SlimLM, a ser…

Taipan: Efficient and Expressive State Space Language Models with Selective Attention

Chien Van Nguyen, Huy Huu Nguyen, Thang M. Pham +8

Efficient long-context language modeling remains a significant challenge in Natural Language Processing (NLP). While Transformers dominate language tasks, they struggle with long s…

PEEB: Part-based Image Classifiers with an Explainable and Editable Language Bottleneck

Thang M. Pham, Peijie Chen, Tin Nguyen +3

CLIP-based classifiers rely on the prompt containing a {class name} that is known to the text encoder. Therefore, they perform poorly on new classes or the classes whose names rare…

Semi-supervised Neural Machine Translation with Consistency Regularization for Low-Resource Languages

Viet H. Pham, Thang M. Pham, Giang Nguyen +2

The advent of deep learning has led to a significant gain in machine translation. However, most of the studies required a large parallel dataset which is scarce and expensive to co…

PiC: A Phrase-in-Context Dataset for Phrase Understanding and Semantic Search

Thang M. Pham, Seunghyun Yoon, Trung Bui +1

While contextualized word embeddings have been a de-facto standard, learning contextualized phrase embeddings is less explored and being hindered by the lack of a human-annotated b…

Double Trouble: How to not explain a text classifier's decisions using counterfactuals synthesized by masked language models?

Thang M. Pham, Trung Bui, Long Mai +1

A principle behind dozens of attribution methods is to take the prediction difference between before-and-after an input feature (here, a token) is removed as its attribution. A pop…

Out of Order: How Important Is The Sequential Order of Words in a Sentence in Natural Language Understanding Tasks?

Thang M. Pham, Trung Bui, Long Mai +1

Do state-of-the-art natural language understanding models care about word order - one of the most important characteristics of a sequence? Not always! We found 75% to 90% of the co…
