Abstract

AbstractParameter efficient learning methods (PERMs)have recently gained significant attention asthey provide an efficient way for pre-trainedlanguage models (PLMs) to adapt to a downstream task. However, these conclusions aremostly drawn from in-domain evaluations overthe full training set. In this paper, we presentcomparisons between PERMs and finetuningfrom three new perspectives: (1) the effect ofsample and model size to in-domain evaluations, (2) generalization to unseen domains andnew datasets, and (3) the faithfulness of generations. Our results show that for in-domainsettings (a) there is a cross point of samplesize for which PERMs will perform better thanfinetuning when training with fewer samples,and (b) larger PLMs have larger cross points. For cross-domain and cross-dataset cases, weshow that (a) Adapter (Houlsby et al., 2019)performs the best amongst all the PERMs studied here, and (b) it outperforms finetuning ifthe task dataset is below a certain size. Wealso compare the faithfulness of generationsand show that PERMs can achieve better faithfulness score than finetuning, especially forsmall training set, by as much as 6%. Finally,we apply Adapter to MT-NLG 530b (Smithet al., 2022) and achieve new state-of-the-artresults on Xsum (Narayan et al., 2018) for allROUGE scores (ROUGE-1 49.17, ROUGE-227.20, ROUGE-L 40.98).

Some pioneer- ing work has proved that neighbor informa- tion is essential for the task. However, existing methods only leverage the one-hop neighbor information of the central entity, ignoring the multi-hop neighbor information that can pro- vide valuable clues for inference. Besides, we also observe that there are co-occurrence rela- tions between types, which is very helpful in al- leviating the false-negative problem. In this pa- per, we propose a novel method called Mining Treasured Neighbors (MiNer) to make use of these two characteristics. Firstly, we devise a Neighbor Information Aggregation module to aggregate the neighbor information. Then, we propose an Entity Type Inference module to mit- igate the adverse impact of the irrelevant neigh- bor information. Finally, a Type Co-occurrence Regularization module is designed to prevent the model from overfitting the false-negative examples caused by missing types. Experimen- tal results on two widely used datasets indicate that our approach significantly outperforms pre- vious state-of-the-art methods.1 1 Introduction Knowledge graphs (KGs) store huge amounts of structured data in the form of triples, i.e., (head entity, relation, tail entity). Each entity in KGs is labeled with one or more types. As shown in Figure 1, the entity Einstein not only belongs to Scientist type, but also Physicist type. The entity type information is very important and can benefit many natural language processing (NLP) applica- tions, such as entity linking (Chen et al., 2018), relation extraction (Vashishth et al., 2018), knowl- edge graph embedding (Xie et al., 2016) and text generation (Dong et al., 2021). 1https://github.com/jinzhuoran/MiNer/ Newton Einstein England Leibniz Calculus Englander Mathematician Physicist Scientist Mathematics Invent Invent Entity Type Relation Existing Type Missing Type Figure 1: An example of a KG fragment. Large brown circles denote entities and small red circles denote types. Brown solid lines denote relations between entities, red solid lines denote existing types of entities and red dot- ted lines denote missing types of entities. Unfortunately, KGs usually suffer from entity type incompleteness problems. More specifically, one entity may have multiple types, while the anno- tated entity type information is usually incomplete. Take Figure 1 as an example, the entity Newton should be labeled with Scientist, Mathematician, Physicist and Englander types. However, only the Scientist type is annotated in the KG. According to the statistics on the FB15k (Moon et al., 2017), 10% of entities have the /music/artist type, but missing the …
