Semanlink - Favoris ; Machine learning AND Text Embeddings

> the problem of building text classifiers with little or no training data.
>
> In recent years, an approach based on neural textual entailment models has been found to give strong results on a diverse range of tasks.

(cf. #[NLI](tag:nli), using the input text as the premise and the text representing the label as the hypothesis)

> In this work, we show that **with proper pre-training, Siamese Networks that embed texts and labels** offer a competitive alternative.
>
> We introduce **label tuning: fine-tuning the label embeddings only**. While giving lower performance than model fine-tuning (which updates all params of the model), this approach has the architectural advantage that a single encoder can be shared by many different tasks (we only fine-tune the label embeddings)
> The drop in quality can
be compensated by using a variant of **[Knowledge distillation](tag:knowledge_distillation)**

[2112.07577] GPL: Generative Pseudo Labeling for Unsupervised Domain Adaptation of Dense Retrieval

Tags:

An unsupervised domain adaptation technique for dense retrieval models

1. synthetic queries
are generated for each passage from the target corpus (using an existing pre-trained [T5](tag:text_to_text_transfer_transformer)
encoder-decoder)
2. the generated queries are used for mining negative
passages (retrieving the most similar
paragraphs using an existing dense retrieval
model == hard negatives!)
3. the query-passage pairs are labeled by a cross-encoder and used to train the domain-adapted
dense retriever (using method described in [Hofstätter et al.,
2020](doc:2021/12/2010_02666_improving_efficien))

[2104.06979] TSDAE: Using Transformer-based Sequential Denoising Auto-Encoder for Unsupervised Sentence Embedding Learning

Tags:

> The most
successful previous approaches like InferSent (Conneau
et al., 2017), Universial Sentence Encoder
(USE) (Cer et al., 2018) and SBERT (Reimers and
Gurevych, 2019) heavily relied on labeled data to
train sentence embedding models.
>
> TSDAE can
achieve up to 93.1% of the performance of indomain
supervised approaches. Further, we
show that TSDAE is **a strong domain adaptation
and pre-training method for sentence
embeddings**, significantly outperforming other
approaches like Masked Language Model.

> During training, TSDAE
encodes corrupted sentences into fixed-sized
vectors and requires the decoder to reconstruct the
original sentences from this sentence embedding.

> **TSDAE can learn domain-specific sentence embeddings with unlabeled sentences**
>
> Most importantly, instead of STS (Semantic Textual Similarity), **we suggest evaluating unsupervised sentence embeddings on the domain-specific tasks&datasets, which is the real use case for them**. Actually, STS scores do not correlate with performance on specific tasks.
