• Abstract summary: We propose a lightweight POS-Enhanced Iterative Co-Attention Network (POI-Net) to handle diverse discriminative MRC tasks synchronously. Our lite unified design brings model significant improvement with both encoder and decoder components. The evaluation results on four discriminative MRC benchmarks consistently indicate the general effectiveness and applicability of our model.

• Abstract: As a broad and major category in machine reading comprehension (MRC), the generalized goal of discriminative MRC is answer prediction from the given materials. However, the focuses of various discriminative MRC tasks may be diverse enough: multi-choice MRC requires model to highlight and integrate all potential critical evidence globally; while extractive MRC focuses on higher local boundary preciseness for answer extraction. Among previous works, there lacks a unified design with pertinence for the overall discriminative MRC tasks. To fill in above gap, we propose a lightweight POS-Enhanced Iterative Co-Attention Network (POI-Net) as the first attempt of unified modeling with pertinence, to handle diverse discriminative MRC tasks synchronously. Nearly without introducing more parameters, our lite unified design brings model significant improvement with both encoder and decoder components. The evaluation results on four discriminative MRC benchmarks consistently indicate the general effectiveness and applicability of our model, and the code is available at https://github.com/Yilin1111/poi-net.

  We introduce Robust Adapter (R-Adapter), a novel method for fine-tuning zero-shot models to downstream tasks. Our method integrates lightweight modules into the pre-trained model and employs novel self-ensemble techniques to boost OOD robustness and reduce storage expenses substantially. Our experiments demonstrate that R-Adapter achieves state-of-the-art performance across a diverse set of tasks, tuning only 13% of the parameters of the CLIP encoders.

  We present MetaDOCK, a task-specific dynamic kernel selection strategy for designing compressed CNN models. Our method is based on the hypothesis that for a given set of similar tasks, not all kernels of the network are needed by each individual task. We show that for the same inference budget, pruned versions of large CNN models obtained using our approach consistently outperform the conventional choices of CNN models.

  We build dialogue models that are dynamically aware of what utterances or tokens are dull without any feature-engineering. The first model, MinAvgOut, directly maximizes the diversity score through the output distributions of each batch. The second model, Label Fine-Tuning (LFT), prepends to the source sequence a label continuously scaled by the diversity score to control the diversity level. The third model, RL, adopts Reinforcement Learning and treats the diversity score as a reward signal.
