Accurate modeling of subjective phenomena such as emotion expression requires data annotated with authors’ intentions. Commonly such data is collected by asking study participants to donate and label genuine content produced in the real world, or create content fitting particu- lar labels during the…
Despite the recent success of pretrained language models as on-the-fly knowledge sources for various downstream tasks, they are shown to inadequately represent trivial common facts that vision typically captures. This limits their application to natural language understanding tasks that require comm…
