• Abstract summary: We propose text classification in-the-wild, which introduces different non-stationary training/testing stages. Decomposing a complex task into modular components can enable robust generalisation under such non-stationary environment. We propose MODULARPROMPT, a label-modular prompt tuning framework for text classification tasks.

• Abstract: Machine learning models usually assume i.i.d data during training and testing, but data and tasks in real world often change over time. To emulate the transient nature of real world, we propose a challenging but practical task: text classification in-the-wild, which introduces different non-stationary training/testing stages. Decomposing a complex task into modular components can enable robust generalisation under such non-stationary environment. However, current modular approaches in NLP do not take advantage of recent advances in parameter efficient tuning of pretrained language models. To close this gap, we propose MODULARPROMPT, a label-modular prompt tuning framework for text classification tasks. In MODULARPROMPT, the input prompt consists of a sequence of soft label prompts, each encoding modular knowledge related to the corresponding class label. In two of most formidable settings, MODULARPROMPT outperforms relevant baselines by a large margin demonstrating strong generalisation ability. We also conduct comprehensive analysis to validate whether the learned prompts satisfy properties of a modular representation.

  We propose a mixture of soft prompt learning method incorporating a routing module. This module is able to capture a dataset's varied styles and dynamically selects the most suitable prompts for each instance. We also implement semantically grouped text-level supervision, initializing each soft prompt with the token embeddings of manually designed templates from its group.

  We explore the task of automatically generating natural language descriptions of salient patterns in a time series. A model for this task should be able to extract high-level patterns such as presence of a peak or a dip. We propose a computational model with a truth-conditional architecture which first runs small learned programs on the input time series. We find that the proposed model is able to generate high-precision captions even though we consider a small and simple space of module types.
