Correcting Automated and Manual Speech Transcription Errors using Warped Language Models
Mahdi Namazifar, John Malik, Li Erran Li +2
Masked language models have revolutionized natural language processing systems in the past few years. A recently introduced generalization of masked language models called warped l…
Are We There Yet? Learning to Localize in Embodied Instruction Following
Shane Storks, Qiaozi Gao, Govind Thattai +1
Embodied instruction following is a challenging problem requiring an agent to infer a sequence of primitive actions to achieve a goal environment state from complex language and vi…
Can You be More Social? Injecting Politeness and Positivity into Task-Oriented Conversational Agents
Yi-Chia Wang, Alexandros Papangelis, Runze Wang +3
Goal-oriented conversational agents are becoming prevalent in our daily lives. For these systems to engage users and achieve their goals, they need to exhibit appropriate social be…
LRTA: A Transparent Neural-Symbolic Reasoning Framework with Modular Supervision for Visual Question Answering
Weixin Liang, Feiyang Niu, Aishwarya Reganti +2
The predominant approach to visual question answering (VQA) relies on encoding the image and question with a "black-box" neural encoder and decoding a single token as the answer li…
Language Model is All You Need: Natural Language Understanding as Question Answering
Mahdi Namazifar, Alexandros Papangelis, Gokhan Tur +1
Different flavors of transfer learning have shown tremendous impact in advancing research and applications of machine learning. In this work we study the use of a specific family o…
Warped Language Models for Noise Robust Language Understanding
Mahdi Namazifar, Gokhan Tur, Dilek Hakkani Tür
Masked Language Models (MLM) are self-supervised neural networks trained to fill in the blanks in a given sentence with masked tokens. Despite the tremendous success of MLMs for va…
