BERT is a popular language model whose main pre-training task is to fill in the blank, i.e., predicting a word that was masked out of a sentence, based on the remaining words. In some applications, however, having an additional context can…

Pre-trained language models, such as BERT, have achieved significant accuracy gain in many natural language processing tasks. Despite its effectiveness, the huge number of parameters makes training a BERT model computationally very…

Transformer-based language models have taken many fields in NLP by storm. BERT and its derivatives dominate most of the existing evaluation benchmarks, including those for Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD), thanks to their ability in…

Sentiment analysis (SA) has become an extensive research area in recent years impacting diverse fields including ecommerce, consumer business, and politics, driven by increasing adoption and usage of social media platforms. It is…

The recently proposed BERT has shown great power on a variety of natural language understanding tasks, such as text classification, reading comprehension, etc. However, how to effectively apply BERT to neural machine translation (NMT) lacks…

This study performs BERT-based analysis, which is a representative contextualized language model, on corporate disclosure data to predict impending bankruptcies. Prior literature on bankruptcy prediction mainly focuses on developing more…

In this work we focus on fine-tuning a pre-trained BERT model and applying it to patent classification. When applied to large datasets of over two millions patents, our approach outperforms the state of the art by an approach using CNN with…

Serverless computing has emerged as an attractive deployment option for cloud applications in recent times. The unique features of this computing model include, rapid auto-scaling, strong isolation, fine-grained billing options and access…

Fine-tuning BERT-based models is resource-intensive in memory, computation, and time. While many prior works aim to improve inference efficiency via compression techniques, e.g., pruning, these works do not explicitly address the…

We propose a simple method for automatic speech recognition (ASR) by fine-tuning BERT, which is a language model (LM) trained on large-scale unlabeled text data and can generate rich contextual representations. Our assumption is that given…

Serverless computing is an emerging Cloud service model. It is currently gaining momentum as the next step in the evolution of hosted computing from capacitated machine virtualisation and microservices towards utility computing. The term…

Models based on BERT have been extremely successful in solving a variety of natural language processing (NLP) tasks. Unfortunately, many of these large models require a great deal of computational resources and/or time for pre-training and…

We present a system that allows users to train their own state-of-the-art paraphrastic sentence representations in a variety of languages. We also release trained models for English, Arabic, German, French, Spanish, Russian, Turkish, and…

Recognizing customer intent accurately with language models based on customer-agent conversational data is essential in today's digital customer service marketplace, but it is often hindered by the lack of sufficient labeled data. In this…

Previous work on document-level NMT usually focuses on limited contexts because of degraded performance on larger contexts. In this paper, we investigate on using large contexts with three main contributions: (1) Different from previous…

Organisations are increasingly putting machine learning models into production at scale. The increasing popularity of serverless scale-to-zero paradigms presents an opportunity for deploying machine learning models to help mitigate…

Word embeddings (e.g., word2vec) have been applied successfully to eCommerce products through~\textit{prod2vec}. Inspired by the recent performance improvements on several NLP tasks brought by contextualized embeddings, we propose to…

This study explores the effectiveness of layer pruning for developing more efficient BERT models tailored to specific downstream tasks in low-resource languages. Our primary objective is to evaluate whether pruned BERT models can maintain…

While pretrained language models (PLMs) have greatly improved text generation, they have also been known to produce unfaithful or inappropriate content. In contrast, classic template-based systems provide strong guarantees of faithfulness…

Previous works on emotion recognition in conversation (ERC) follow a two-step paradigm, which can be summarized as first producing context-independent features via fine-tuning pretrained language models (PLMs) and then analyzing contextual…
