Chains of Thought (CoT) have shown potential in augmenting the reasoning capabilities of language models, yet their effectiveness is predominantly observed in large language models (LLMs). Recently, several attempts have been made to inject CoT into small language models (SLMs) using distillation an…
Chains of thought (CoTs) have achieved success in enhancing the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs), while their effectiveness is predominantly observed in LLMs. Existing solutions methods adopt distillation to inject chain-of-thought capabilities into small models (SLMs). Howeve…
Pre-trained language models (PLMs) that rely solely on textual data may exhibit limitations in multimodal semantics comprehension. Existing solutions attempt to alleviate this issue by incorporating explicit image retrieval or generation techniques.However, these methods: (1) focus exclusively on th…
Spoken language understanding (SLU) inevitably suffers from error propagation from automatic speech recognition (ASR) in actual scenarios. Some recent works attempt to alleviate this issue through contrastive learning. However, they (1) sample negative pairs incorrectly in pre-training; (2) only foc…
Zero-shot Spoken Language Understanding (SLU) aims to enable task-oriented dialogue systems to understand user needs without training data. Challenging but worthwhile, zero-shot SLU reduces the time and effort that data labeling takes. Recent advancements in large language models (LLMs), such as GPT…
