Texts or Images? A Fine-grained Analysis on the Effectiveness of Input Representations and Models for Table Question Answering

Wei Zhou, Mohsen Mesgar, Heike Adel +1

In table question answering (TQA), tables are encoded as either texts or images. Prior work suggests that passing images of tables to multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) perf…

Explaining Pre-Trained Language Models with Attribution Scores: An Analysis in Low-Resource Settings

Wei Zhou, Heike Adel, Hendrik Schuff +1

Attribution scores indicate the importance of different input parts and can, thus, explain model behaviour. Currently, prompt-based models are gaining popularity, i.a., due to thei…
