Eliciting Knowledge from Pretrained Language Models for Prototypical Prompt Verbalizer

Recent advances on prompt-tuning cast few-shot classification tasks as a masked language modeling problem. By wrapping input into a template and using a verbalizer which constructs a mapping between label space and label word space, prompt-tuning can achieve excellent results in zero-shot and few-shot scenarios. However, typical prompt-tuning needs a manually designed verbalizer which requires domain expertise and human efforts. And the insufficient label space may introduce considerable bias into the results. In this paper, we focus on eliciting knowledge from pretrained language models and propose a prototypical prompt verbalizer for prompt-tuning. Labels are represented by prototypical embeddings in the feature space rather than by discrete words. The distances between the embedding at the masked position of input and prototypical embeddings are used as classification criterion. For zero-shot settings, knowledge is elicited from pretrained language models by a manually designed template to form initial prototypical embeddings. For few-shot settings, models are tuned to learn meaningful and interpretable prototypical embeddings. Our method optimizes models by contrastive learning. Extensive experimental results on several many-class text classification datasets with low-resource settings demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach compared with other verbalizer construction methods. Our implementation is available at https://github.com/Ydongd/prototypical-prompt-verbalizer.

Encoder-Decoder Neural Architecture Optimization for Keyword Spotting

Keyword spotting aims to identify specific keyword audio utterances. In recent years, deep convolutional neural networks have been widely utilized in keyword spotting systems. However, their model architectures are mainly based on off-the shelfbackbones such as VGG-Net or ResNet, instead of specially designed for the task. In this paper, we utilize neural architecture search to design convolutional neural network models that can boost the performance of keyword spotting while maintaining an acceptable memory footprint. Specifically, we search the model operators and their connections in a specific search space with Encoder-Decoder neural architecture optimization. Extensive evaluations on Google's Speech Commands Dataset show that the model architecture searched by our approach achieves a state-of-the-art accuracy of over 97%.

Neural Architecture Search For Keyword Spotting

Deep neural networks have recently become a popular solution to keyword spotting systems, which enable the control of smart devices via voice. In this paper, we apply neural architecture search to search for convolutional neural network models that can help boost the performance of keyword spotting based on features extracted from acoustic signals while maintaining an acceptable memory footprint. Specifically, we use differentiable architecture search techniques to search for operators and their connections in a predefined cell search space. The found cells are then scaled up in both depth and width to achieve competitive performance. We evaluated the proposed method on Google's Speech Commands Dataset and achieved a state-of-the-art accuracy of over 97% on the setting of 12-class utterance classification commonly reported in the literature.

Review of Deep Learning

In recent years, China, the United States and other countries, Google and other high-tech companies have increased investment in artificial intelligence. Deep learning is one of the current artificial intelligence research's key areas. This paper analyzes and summarizes the latest progress and future research directions of deep learning. Firstly, three basic models of deep learning are outlined, including multilayer perceptrons, convolutional neural networks, and recurrent neural networks. On this basis, we further analyze the emerging new models of convolution neural networks and recurrent neural networks. This paper then summarizes deep learning's applications in many areas of artificial intelligence, including speech processing, computer vision, natural language processing and so on. Finally, this paper discusses the existing problems of deep learning and gives the corresponding possible solutions.

An influence-based fast preceding questionnaire model for elderly assessments

To improve the efficiency of elderly assessments, an influence-based fast preceding questionnaire model (FPQM) is proposed. Compared with traditional assessments, the FPQM optimizes questionnaires by reordering their attributes. The values of low-ranking attributes can be predicted by the values of the high-ranking attributes. Therefore, the number of attributes can be reduced without redesigning the questionnaires. A new function for calculating the influence of the attributes is proposed based on probability theory. Reordering and reducing algorithms are given based on the attributes' influences. The model is verified through a practical application. The practice in an elderly-care company shows that the FPQM can reduce the number of attributes by 90.56% with a prediction accuracy of 98.39%. Compared with other methods, such as the Expert Knowledge, Rough Set and C4.5 methods, the FPQM achieves the best performance. In addition, the FPQM can also be applied to other questionnaires.
