Lightweight Contenders: Navigating Semi-Supervised Text Mining through Peer Collaboration and Self Transcendence

NAACL 2025findings

The semi-supervised learning (SSL) strategy in lightweight models requires reducing annotated samples and facilitating cost-effective inference. However, the constraint on model parameters, imposed by the scarcity of training labels, limits the SSL performance. In this paper, we introduce PS-NET, a…

Theory of Mind in Large Language Models: Assessment and Enhancement

ACL 2025long

Theory of Mind (ToM)—the ability to reason about the mental states of oneself and others—is a cornerstone of human social intelligence. As Large Language Models (LLMs) become increasingly integrated into daily life, understanding their ability to interpret and respond to human mental states is cruci…

DisCo: Distilled Student Models Co-training for Semi-supervised Text Mining

EMNLP 2023long main

Many text mining models are constructed by fine-tuning a large deep pre-trained language model (PLM) in downstream tasks. However, a significant challenge that arises nowadays is how to maintain performance when we use a lightweight model with limited labeled samples. We present DisCo, a semi-super…

Noise-injected Consistency Training and Entropy-constrained Pseudo Labeling for Semi-supervised Extractive Summarization

COLING 2022main

Labeling large amounts of extractive summarization data is often prohibitive expensive due to time, financial, and expertise constraints, which poses great challenges to incorporating summarization system in practical applications. This limitation can be overcome by semi-supervised approaches: consi…
