[2002.08909] REALM: Retrieval-Augmented Language Model Pre-Training

Tags:

**Augment language model pre-training with a retriever module**, which
is trained using the masked language modeling objective.

> To capture knowledge in a more modular and interpretable way, we augment language model pre-training with a latent knowledge retriever, which allows the model to retrieve and attend over documents from a large corpus such as Wikipedia, used during pre-training, fine-tuning and inference. **For the first time, we show how to pre-train such a knowledge retriever in an unsupervised manner**, using masked language modeling as the learning signal and backpropagating through a retrieval step that considers millions of documents

Hum, #TODO: parallel to be drawn with techniques in [KG-augmented Language Models](tag:knowledge_graph_augmented_language_models) which focus "on the problem of capturing declarative knowledge in the learned parameters of a language model."
