Recent mainstream event argument extraction methods process each event in isolation, resulting in inefficient inference and ignoring the correlations among multiple events. To address these limitations, here we propose a multiple-event argument extraction model DEEIA (Dependency-guided Encoding and…
A dialogue is essentially a multi-turn interaction among interlocutors. Effective evaluation metrics should reflect the dynamics of such interaction. Existing automatic metrics are focused very much on the turn-level quality, while ignoring such dynamics. To this end, we propose DynaEval, a unified…
As unlabeled data carry rich task-relevant information, they are proven useful for few-shot learning of language model. The question is how to effectively make use of such data. In this work, we revisit the self-training technique for language model fine-tuning and present a state-of-the-art prompt-…
Code-switching text-to-speech (TTS) aims to enable a system to speak two languages with a single voice and in the same utterance. In this paper, we propose to incorporate cross-lingual word embedding into an end-to-end TTS system, to improve the voice rendering. The cross-lingual word embedding, gen…
Code-switch language modelling is challenging due to limited linguistic resources and less predictable word sequences. Many state-of-the-art systems rely on linguistic information such as Part-of-Speech (POS) or classes to generalize the lexicon. Such systems generally use multi-task learning or con…
