IAG: Induction-Augmented Generation Framework for Answering Reasoning Questions
https://aclanthology.org/2023.emnlp-main.1/
[ "Zhebin Zhang", "Xinyu Zhang", "Yuanhang Ren", "Saijiang Shi", "Meng Han", "Yongkang Wu", "Ruofei Lai", "Zhao Cao" ]
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), by incorporating external knowledge with parametric memory of language models, has become the state-of-the-art architecture for open-domain QA tasks. However, common knowledge bases are inherently constrained by limited coverage and noisy information, making retrieval-based approac...

Absolute Position Embedding Learns Sinusoid-like Waves for Attention Based on Relative Position
https://aclanthology.org/2023.emnlp-main.2/
[ "Yuji Yamamoto", "Takuya Matsuzaki" ]
Attention weight is a clue to interpret how a Transformer-based model makes an inference. In some attention heads, the attention focuses on the neighbors of each token. This allows the output vector of each token to depend on the surrounding tokens and contributes to make the inference context-dependent. We analyze the...

Chinese Lexical Substitution: Dataset and Method

[ "Jipeng Qiang", "Kang Liu", "Ying Li", "Yun Li", "Yi Zhu", "Yun-Hao Yuan", "Xiaocheng Hu", "Xiaoye Ouyang" ]
Existing lexical substitution (LS) benchmarks were collected by asking human annotators to think of substitutes from memory, resulting in benchmarks with limited coverage and relatively small scales. To overcome this problem, we propose a novel annotation method to construct an LS dataset based on human and machine col...

[ "Jeremy Cole", "Michael Zhang", "Daniel Gillick", "Julian Eisenschlos", "Bhuwan Dhingra", "Jacob Eisenstein" ]
Trustworthy language models should abstain from answering questions when they do not know the answer. However, the answer to a question can be unknown for a variety of reasons. Prior research has focused on the case in which the question is clear and the answer is unambiguous but possibly unknown. However, the answer t...

Generalized quantifiers (e.g., \textit{few}, \textit{most}) are used to indicate the proportions predicates satisfy (for example, \textit{some} apples are red). One way to interpret quantifier semantics is to explicitly bind these satisfactions with percentage scopes (e.g., 30%-40% of apples are red). This approach can...

Linear-Time Modeling of Linguistic Structure: An Order-Theoretic Perspective
https://aclanthology.org/2023.emnlp-main.52/
[ "Tianyu Liu", "Afra Amini", "Mrinmaya Sachan", "Ryan Cotterell" ]
Tasks that model the relation between pairs of tokens in a string are a vital part of understanding natural language. Such tasks, in general, require exhaustive pair-wise comparisons of tokens, thus having a quadratic runtime complexity in the length of the string. We show that these exhaustive comparisons can be avoid...

[ "Yue Wang", "Hung Le", "Akhilesh Gotmare", "Nghi Bui", "Junnan Li", "Steven Hoi" ]
Large language models (LLMs) pretrained on vast source code have achieved prominent progress in code intelligence. However, existing code LLMs have two main limitations. First, they often adopt a specific architecture (encoder-only or decoder-only) or rely on a unified encoder-decoder network for different downstream t...
