mPMR: A Multilingual Pre-trained Machine Reader at Scale
Weiwen Xu, Xin Li, Wai Lam +1
We present multilingual Pre-trained Machine Reader (mPMR), a novel method for multilingual machine reading comprehension (MRC)-style pre-training. mPMR aims to guide multilingual p…
From Cloze to Comprehension: Retrofitting Pre-trained Masked Language Model to Pre-trained Machine Reader
Weiwen Xu, Xin Li, Wenxuan Zhang +4
We present Pre-trained Machine Reader (PMR), a novel method for retrofitting pre-trained masked language models (MLMs) to pre-trained machine reading comprehension (MRC) models wit…
ConReader: Exploring Implicit Relations in Contracts for Contract Clause Extraction
Weiwen Xu, Yang Deng, Wenqiang Lei +3
We study automatic Contract Clause Extraction (CCE) by modeling implicit relations in legal contracts. Existing CCE methods mostly treat contracts as plain text, creating a substan…
PeerDA: Data Augmentation via Modeling Peer Relation for Span Identification Tasks
Weiwen Xu, Xin Li, Yang Deng +2
Span identification aims at identifying specific text spans from text input and classifying them into pre-defined categories. Different from previous works that merely leverage the…
Improving Lexical Embeddings for Robust Question Answering
Weiwen Xu, Bowei Zou, Wai Lam +1
Recent techniques in Question Answering (QA) have gained remarkable performance improvement with some QA models even surpassed human performance. However, the ability of these mode…
