Efficient Meta Lifelong-Learning with Limited Memory
Zirui Wang, Sanket Vaibhav Mehta, Barnabás Póczos +1
Current natural language processing models work well on a single task, yet they often fail to continuously learn new tasks without forgetting previous ones as they are re-trained t…
Soft Gazetteers for Low-Resource Named Entity Recognition
Shruti Rijhwani, Shuyan Zhou, Graham Neubig +1
Traditional named entity recognition models use gazetteers (lists of entities) as features to improve performance. Although modern neural network models do not require such hand-cr…
Improving Candidate Generation for Low-resource Cross-lingual Entity Linking
Shuyan Zhou, Shruti Rijhwani, John Wieting +2
Cross-lingual entity linking (XEL) is the task of finding referents in a target-language knowledge base (KB) for mentions extracted from source-language texts. The first step of (X…
StructSum: Summarization via Structured Representations
Vidhisha Balachandran, Artidoro Pagnoni, Jay Yoon Lee +3
Abstractive text summarization aims at compressing the information of a long source document into a rephrased, condensed summary. Despite advances in modeling techniques, abstracti…
Harnessing Code Switching to Transcend the Linguistic Barrier
Ashiqur R. KhudaBukhsh, Shriphani Palakodety, Jaime G. Carbonell
Code mixing (or code switching) is a common phenomenon observed in social-media content generated by a linguistically diverse user-base. Studies show that in the Indian sub-contine…
Cross-lingual Alignment vs Joint Training: A Comparative Study and A Simple Unified Framework
Zirui Wang, Jiateng Xie, Ruochen Xu +3
Learning multilingual representations of text has proven a successful method for many cross-lingual transfer learning tasks. There are two main paradigms for learning such represen…
