QA-based Event Start-Points Ordering for Clinical Temporal Relation Annotation

COLING 2024main

Temporal relation annotation in the clinical domain is crucial yet challenging due to its workload and the medical expertise required. In this paper, we propose a novel annotation method that integrates event start-points ordering and question-answering (QA) as the annotation format. By focusing onl…

Posterior Differential Regularization with f-divergence for Improving Model Robustness

NAACL 2021long

We address the problem of enhancing model robustness through regularization. Specifically, we focus on methods that regularize the model posterior difference between clean and noisy inputs. Theoretically, we provide a connection of two recent methods, Jacobian Regularization and Virtual Adversarial…

Targeted Adversarial Training for Natural Language Understanding

NAACL 2021long

We present a simple yet effective Targeted Adversarial Training (TAT) algorithm to improve adversarial training for natural language understanding. The key idea is to introspect current mistakes and prioritize adversarial training steps to where the model errs the most. Experiments show that TAT can…
