To Learn or Not to Learn, That is the Question — A Feature-Task Dual Learning Model of Perceptual Learning

NeurIPS 2024poster

Perceptual learning refers to the practices through which participants learn to improve their performance in perceiving sensory stimuli. Two seemingly conflicting phenomena of specificity and transfer have been widely observed in perceptual learning. Here, we propose a dual-learning model to recon…

Charformer: Fast Character Transformers via Gradient-based Subword Tokenization

ICLR 2022poster

State-of-the-art models in natural language processing rely on separate rigid subword tokenization algorithms, which limit their generalization ability and adaptation to new settings. In this paper, we propose a new model inductive bias that learns a subword tokenization end-to-end as part of the mo…

Scaling Multimodal Pre-Training via Cross-Modality Gradient Harmonization

NeurIPS 2022accept

Self-supervised pre-training recently demonstrates success on large-scale multimodal data, and state-of-the-art contrastive learning methods often enforce the feature consistency from cross-modality inputs, such as video/audio or video/text pairs. Despite its convenience to formulate and leverage in…

ReasonBERT: Pre-trained to Reason with Distant Supervision

EMNLP 2021main

We present ReasonBert, a pre-training method that augments language models with the ability to reason over long-range relations and multiple, possibly hybrid contexts. Unlike existing pre-training methods that only harvest learning signals from local contexts of naturally occurring texts, we propose…

CLUE: A Chinese Language Understanding Evaluation Benchmark

COLING 2020main

The advent of natural language understanding (NLU) benchmarks for English, such as GLUE and SuperGLUE allows new NLU models to be evaluated across a diverse set of tasks. These comprehensive benchmarks have facilitated a broad range of research and applications in natural language processing (NLP).…

Personalized Fashion Design

ICCV 2019poster

Fashion recommendation is the task of suggesting a fashion item that fits well with a given item. In this work, we propose to automatically synthesis new items for recommendation. We jointly consider the two key issues for the task, i.e., compatibility and personalization. We propose a personalized…
