The rapid development of large pre-trained language models has greatly increased the demand for model compression techniques, among which quantization is a popular solution. In this paper, we propose BinaryBERT, which pushes BERT…

Despite pre-trained language models such as BERT have achieved appealing performance in a wide range of natural language processing tasks, they are computationally expensive to be deployed in real-time applications. A typical method is to…

Text coherence is a fundamental problem in natural language generation and understanding. Organizing sentences into an order that maximizes coherence is known as sentence ordering. This paper is proposing a new approach based on the graph…

Despite the strong performance of Transformers, their quadratic computation complexity presents challenges in applying them to vision tasks. Automatic pruning is one of effective methods for reducing computation complexity without heuristic…

The pre-trained BERT model achieves a remarkable state of the art across a wide range of tasks in natural language processing. For solving the gender bias in gendered pronoun resolution task, I propose a novel neural network model based on…

Unsupervised pretraining models have been shown to facilitate a wide range of downstream NLP applications. These models, however, retain some of the limitations of traditional static word embeddings. In particular, they encode only the…

The standard BERT adopts subword-based tokenization, which may break a word into two or more wordpieces (e.g., converting "lossless" to "loss" and "less"). This will bring inconvenience in following situations: (1) what is the best way to…

Pronoun resolution is part of coreference resolution, the task of pairing an expression to its referring entity. This is an important task for natural language understanding and a necessary component of machine translation systems, chat…

Self-supervised approaches for speech representation learning are challenged by three unique problems: (1) there are multiple sound units in each input utterance, (2) there is no lexicon of input sound units during the pre-training phase,…

We are surprised to find that BERT's peak performance of 77% on the Argument Reasoning Comprehension Task reaches just three points below the average untrained human baseline. However, we show that this result is entirely accounted for by…

Deep neural networks exploiting millions of parameters are nowadays the norm in deep learning applications. This is a potential issue because of the great amount of computational resources needed for training, and of the possible loss of…

In spite of great advancements of machine reading comprehension (RC), existing RC models are still vulnerable and not robust to different types of adversarial examples. Neural models over-confidently predict wrong answers to semantic…

Convolutional neural networks are capable of learning powerful representational spaces, which are necessary for tackling complex learning tasks. However, due to the model capacity required to capture such representations, they are often…

Attention-based sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) models have achieved promising results in automatic speech recognition (ASR). However, as these models decode in a left-to-right way, they do not have access to context on the right. We…

Pre-training large-scale neural language models on raw texts has made a significant contribution to improving transfer learning in natural language processing (NLP). With the introduction of transformer-based language models, such as…

Semantic parsing is the task of transforming sentences from natural language into formal representations of predicate-argument structures. Under this research area, frame-semantic parsing has attracted much interest. This parsing approach…

Transformers \citep{vaswani2017attention} have gradually become a key component for many state-of-the-art natural language representation models. A recent Transformer based model- BERT \citep{devlin2018bert} achieved state-of-the-art…

Pre-trained language models have been dominating the field of natural language processing in recent years, and have led to significant performance gains for various complex natural language tasks. One of the most prominent pre-trained…

We propose Cluster Pruning (CUP) for compressing and accelerating deep neural networks. Our approach prunes similar filters by clustering them based on features derived from both the incoming and outgoing weight connections. With CUP, we…

How much can pruning algorithms teach us about the fundamentals of learning representations in neural networks? And how much can these fundamentals help while devising new pruning techniques? A lot, it turns out. Neural network pruning has…
