Abstract

AbstractIn the paper we present a ‘pre-training’+‘post-training’+‘fine-tuning’ three-stage paradigm which is a supplementary framework for the standard ‘pre-training’+‘fine-tuning’ languagemodel approach. Furthermore based on three-stage paradigm we present a language modelnamed PPBERT. Compared with original BERT architecture that is based on the standard two-stage paradigm we do not fine-tune pre-trained model directly but rather post-train it on the domain or task related dataset first which helps to better incorporate task-awareness knowl-edge and domain-awareness knowledge within pre-trained model also from the training datasetreduce bias. Extensive experimental results indicate that proposed model improves the perfor-mance of the baselines on 24 NLP tasks which includes eight GLUE benchmarks eight Su-perGLUE benchmarks six extractive question answering benchmarks. More remarkably our proposed model is a more flexible and pluggable model where post-training approach is able to be plugged into other PLMs that are based on BERT. Extensive ablations further validate the effectiveness and its state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance. The open source code pre-trained models and post-trained models are available publicly.

This paper proposes a character-level sequence tagging method for automatic recognition of separable two-character verbs, which avoids the error propagation of Chinese word segmentation and part of speech tagging, and saves the labor cost of making rules and feature templates. In the process of training, the Chinese pre-trained model BERT is fine-tuned to obtain the vector representations of characters for the target task. Meanwhile, the MASK mechanism is introduced, where the separable words within the separable structures is hidden from the model, to reduce the influence of words themselves on the recognition results and strengthen the learning of the middle insertions in separable structures, and further, different masks for the ©2021 中国计算语言学大会 根据《Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License》许可出版 基金项目:国家自然科学基金“汉语抽象意义表示关键技术研究”(61772278);国家自然科学基金“向量组合学习框架 下基于依存混合树的中文语义解析研究”(61472191);江苏省高校哲学社会科学基金“面向机器学习的汉语复句语料 建设研究”(2019JSA0220);国家社会科学基金“中文抽象语义库的构建及自动分析研究”(18BYY127)。 CCL 2021 第 二 十 届 中 国 计 算 语 言 学 大 会 论 文 集 , 第 97页 -第 107页 , 呼 和 浩 特 , 中 国 , 2021年 8月 13日 至 15日 。 (c) 2021 中 国 中 文 信 息 学 会 计 算 语 言 学 专 业 委 员 会 计算语言学 front and back morphemes are used to emphasize their occurrence complicated and occurrence order.
