DABS: A Domain-Agnostic Benchmark for Self-Supervised Learning

2021 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Self-supervised learning algorithms, including BERT and SimCLR, have enabled significant strides in fields like natural language processing, computer vision, and speech processing. However, these algorithms are domain-specific, meaning that new self-supervised learning algorithms must be …

Calibrate your listeners! Robust communication-based training for pragmatic speakers

2021

To be good conversational partners, natural language processing (NLP) systems should be trained to produce contextually useful utterances. Prior work has investigated training NLP systems with communication-based objectives, where a neural listener stands in as …
