• Abstract summary: Satire detection and sentiment analysis are intensively explored natural language processing tasks. In languages with fewer research resources, an alternative is to produce artificial examples based on character-level adversarial processes. In this work, we improve the well-known NLP models with adversarial training and capsule networks. The proposed framework outperforms the existing methods for the two tasks, achieving up to 99.08% accuracy.

• Abstract: Satire detection and sentiment analysis are intensively explored natural language processing (NLP) tasks that study the identification of the satirical tone from texts and extracting sentiments in relationship with their targets. In languages with fewer research resources, an alternative is to produce artificial examples based on character-level adversarial processes to overcome dataset size limitations. Such samples are proven to act as a regularization method, thus improving the robustness of models. In this work, we improve the well-known NLP models (i.e., Convolutional Neural Networks, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Bidirectional LSTM, Gated Recurrent Units (GRUs), and Bidirectional GRUs) with adversarial training and capsule networks. The fine-tuned models are used for satire detection and sentiment analysis tasks in the Romanian language. The proposed framework outperforms the existing methods for the two tasks, achieving up to 99.08% accuracy, thus confirming the improvements added by the capsule layers and the adversarial training in NLP approaches.

  adversarial examples are constructed by adding small non-random perturbations to correctly classified inputs. Approaches to adversarial attacks in natural language tasks have boomed in the last five years using character-level, word-level, or phrase-level perturbations. We propose two new reactive methods for NLP to fill this gap. Adapted LID and MDRE obtain state-of-the-art results on character-level, word-level, and phrase-level attacks on the IMDB dataset.

  Non-autoregressive (NAR) generation is first proposed in machine translation (NMT) to speed up inference. While NAR generation can significantly accelerate machine translation, the inference of autoregressive (AR) generation sacrificed translation accuracy. Many new models and algorithms have been designed/proposed to bridge the accuracy gap between NAR generation and AR generation.
