DeepResonance: Enhancing Multimodal Music Understanding via Music-centric Multi-way Instruction Tuning

EMNLP 2025

Recent advancements in music large language models (LLMs) have significantly improved music understanding tasks, which involve the model’s ability to analyze and interpret various musical elements. These improvements primarily focused on integrating both music and text inputs. However, the potential

Exploring the Impact of Layer Normalization for Zero-shot Neural Machine Translation

ACL 2023short

This paper studies the impact of layer normalization (LayerNorm) on zero-shot translation (ZST). Recent efforts for ZST often utilize the Transformer architecture as the backbone, with LayerNorm at the input of layers (PreNorm) set as the default. However, Xu et al. (2019) has revealed that PreNorm…

GPT-RE: In-context Learning for Relation Extraction using Large Language Models

EMNLP 2023long main

In spite of the potential for ground-breaking achievements offered by large language models (LLMs) (e.g., GPT-3) via in-context learning (ICL), they still lag significantly behind fully-supervised baselines (e.g., fine-tuned BERT) in relation extraction (RE). This is due to the two major shortcoming…

Rescue Implicit and Long-tail Cases: Nearest Neighbor Relation Extraction

EMNLP 2022main

Relation extraction (RE) has achieved remarkable progress with the help of pre-trained language models. However, existing RE models are usually incapable of handling two situations: implicit expressions and long-tail relation types, caused by language complexity and data sparsity. In this paper, we…

Textual Enhanced Contrastive Learning for Solving Math Word Problems

EMNLP 2022finding

Solving math word problems is the task that analyses the relation of quantities e and requires an accurate understanding of contextual natural language information. Recent studies show that current models rely on shallow heuristics to predict solutions and could be easily misled by small textual per…

When do Contrastive Word Alignments Improve Many-to-many Neural Machine Translation?

NAACL 2022findings

Word alignment has proven to benefit many-to-many neural machine translation (NMT). However, high-quality ground-truth bilingual dictionaries were used for pre-editing in previous methods, which are unavailable for most language pairs. Meanwhile, the contrastive objective can implicitly utilize auto…

Lightweight Cross-Lingual Sentence Representation Learning

ACL 2021long

Large-scale models for learning fixed-dimensional cross-lingual sentence representations like LASER (Artetxe and Schwenk, 2019b) lead to significant improvement in performance on downstream tasks. However, further increases and modifications based on such large-scale models are usually impractical d…
