Recent an unsupervised statistical text simplification based on phrase-based machine translation system (UnsupPBMT) achieved good performance, which initializes the phrase tables using the similar words obtained by word embedding modeling. Since word embedding modeling only considers the relevance between words, the phrase table in UnsupPBMT contains a lot of dissimilar words. In this paper, we propose an unsupervised statistical text simplification using pre-trained language modeling BERT for initialization. Specifically, we use BERT as a general linguistic knowledge base for predicting similar words. Experimental results show that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art unsupervised text simplification methods on three benchmarks, even outperforms some supervised baselines.展开更多

They make program maintenance challenging and deteriorate software quality over time. Various detection approaches, ranging from traditional heuristic algorithms to machine learning methods, are used to identify these defects. Ensemble learning methods have strengthened the detection of these defects. However, existing approaches do not simultaneously exploit the capabilities of extracting relevant features from pre-trained models and the performance of neural networks for the classification task. Therefore, our goal has been to design a model that combines a pre-trained model to extract relevant features from code excerpts through transfer learning and a bagging method with a base estimator, a dense neural network, for defect classification. To achieve this, we composed multiple samples of the same size with replacements from the imbalanced dataset MLCQ1. For all the samples, we used the CodeT5-small variant to extract features and trained a bagging method with the neural network Roberta Classification Head to classify defects based on these features. We then compared this model to RandomForest, one of the ensemble methods that yields good results. Our experiments showed that the number of base estimators to use for bagging depends on the defect to be detected. Next, we observed that it was not necessary to use a data balancing technique with our model when the imbalance rate was 23%. Finally, for blob detection, RandomForest had a median MCC value of 0.36 compared to 0.12 for our method. However, our method was predominant in Long Method detection with a median MCC value of 0.53 compared to 0.42 for RandomForest. These results suggest that the performance of ensemble methods in detecting structural development defects is dependent on specific defects.展开更多

文摘Smart contracts,which automatically execute on decentralized platforms like Ethereum,require high security and low gas consumption.As a result,developers have a strong demand for semantic code search tools that utilize natural language queries to efficiently search for existing code snippets.However,existing code search models face a semantic gap between code and queries,which requires a large amount of training data.In this paper,we propose a fine-tuning approach to bridge the semantic gap in code search and improve the search accuracy.We collect 80723 different pairs of<comment,code snippet>from Etherscan.io and use these pairs to fine-tune,validate,and test the pre-trained CodeBERT model.Using the fine-tuned model,we develop a code search engine specifically for smart contracts.We evaluate the Recall@k and Mean Reciprocal Rank(MRR)of the fine-tuned CodeBERT model using different proportions of the finetuned data.It is encouraging that even a small amount of fine-tuned data can produce satisfactory results.In addition,we perform a comparative analysis between the fine-tuned CodeBERT model and the two state-of-the-art models.The experimental results show that the finetuned CodeBERT model has superior performance in terms of Recall@k and MRR.These findings highlight the effectiveness of our finetuning approach and its potential to significantly improve the code search accuracy.

文摘Unsupervised text simplification has attracted much attention due to the scarcity of high-quality parallel text simplification corpora. Recent an unsupervised statistical text simplification based on phrase-based machine translation system (UnsupPBMT) achieved good performance, which initializes the phrase tables using the similar words obtained by word embedding modeling. Since word embedding modeling only considers the relevance between words, the phrase table in UnsupPBMT contains a lot of dissimilar words. In this paper, we propose an unsupervised statistical text simplification using pre-trained language modeling BERT for initialization. Specifically, we use BERT as a general linguistic knowledge base for predicting similar words. Experimental results show that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art unsupervised text simplification methods on three benchmarks, even outperforms some supervised baselines.

文摘Web search provides a promising way for people to obtain information and has been extensively studied.With the surge of deep learning and large-scale pre-training techniques,various neural information retrieval models are proposed,and they have demonstrated the power for improving search(especially,the ranking)quality.All these existing search methods follow a common paradigm,i.e.,index-retrieve-rerank,where they first build an index of all documents based on document terms(i.e.,sparse inverted index)or representation vectors(i.e.,dense vector index),then retrieve and rerank retrieved documents based on the similarity between the query and documents via ranking models.In this paper,we explore a new paradigm of information retrieval without an explicit index but only with a pre-trained model.Instead,all of the knowledge of the documents is encoded into model parameters,which can be regarded as a differentiable indexer and optimized in an end-to-end manner.Specifically,we propose a pre-trained model-based information retrieval(IR)system called DynamicRetriever,which directly returns document identifiers for a given query.Under such a framework,we implement two variants to explore how to train the model from scratch and how to combine the advantages of dense retrieval models.Compared with existing search methods,the model-based IR system parameterizes the traditional static index with a pre-training model,which converts the document semantic mapping into a dynamic and updatable process.Extensive experiments conducted on the public search benchmark Microsoft machine reading comprehension(MS MARCO)verify the effectiveness and potential of our proposed new paradigm for information retrieval.

文摘The pre-training-then-fine-tuning paradigm has been widely used in deep learning.Due to the huge computation cost for pre-training,practitioners usually download pre-trained models from the Internet and fine-tune them on downstream datasets,while the downloaded models may suffer backdoor attacks.Different from previous attacks aiming at a target task,we show that a backdoored pre-trained model can behave maliciously in various downstream tasks without foreknowing task information.Attackers can restrict the output representations(the values of output neurons)of trigger-embedded samples to arbitrary predefined values through additional training,namely neuron-level backdoor attack(NeuBA).Since fine-tuning has little effect on model parameters,the fine-tuned model will retain the backdoor functionality and predict a specific label for the samples embedded with the same trigger.To provoke multiple labels in a specific task,attackers can introduce several triggers with predefined contrastive values.In the experiments of both natural language processing(NLP)and computer vision(CV),we show that NeuBA can well control the predictions for trigger-embedded instances with different trigger designs.Our findings sound a red alarm for the wide use of pre-trained models.Finally,we apply several defense methods to NeuBA and find that model pruning is a promising technique to resist NeuBA by omitting backdoored neurons.
文摘Multimodal sentence summarization(MMSS)is a new yet challenging task that aims to generate a concise summary of a long sentence and its corresponding image.Although existing methods have gained promising success in MMSS,they overlook the powerful generation ability of generative pre-trained language models(GPLMs),which have shown to be effective in many text generation tasks.To fill this research gap,we propose to using GPLMs to promote the performance of MMSS.Notably,adopting GPLMs to solve MMSS inevitably faces two challenges:1)What fusion strategy should we use to inject visual information into GPLMs properly?2)How to keep the GPLM′s generation ability intact to the utmost extent when the visual feature is injected into the GPLM.To address these two challenges,we propose a vision enhanced generative pre-trained language model for MMSS,dubbed as Vision-GPLM.In Vision-GPLM,we obtain features of visual and textual modalities with two separate encoders and utilize a text decoder to produce a summary.In particular,we utilize multi-head attention to fuse the features extracted from visual and textual modalities to inject the visual feature into the GPLM.Meanwhile,we train Vision-GPLM in two stages:the vision-oriented pre-training stage and fine-tuning stage.In the vision-oriented pre-training stage,we particularly train the visual encoder by the masked language model task while the other components are frozen,aiming to obtain homogeneous representations of text and image.In the fine-tuning stage,we train all the components of Vision-GPLM by the MMSS task.Extensive experiments on a public MMSS dataset verify the superiority of our model over existing baselines.

文摘Open Relation Extraction(ORE)is a task of extracting semantic relations from a text document.Current ORE systems have significantly improved their efficiency in obtaining Chinese relations,when compared with conventional systems which heavily depend on feature engineering or syntactic parsing.However,the ORE systems do not use robust neural networks such as pre-trained language models to take advantage of large-scale unstructured data effectively.In respons to this issue,a new system entitled Chinese Open Relation Extraction with Knowledge Enhancement(CORE-KE)is presented in this paper.The CORE-KE system employs a pre-trained language model(with the support of a Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory(BiLSTM)layer and a Masked Conditional Random Field(Masked CRF)layer)on unstructured data in order to improve Chinese open relation extraction.Entity descriptions in Wikidata and additional knowledge(in terms of triple facts)extracted from Chinese ORE datasets are used to fine-tune the pre-trained language model.In addition,syntactic features are further adopted in the training stage of the CORE-KE system for knowledge enhancement.Experimental results of the CORE-KE system on two large-scale datasets of open Chinese entities and relations demonstrate that the CORE-KE system is superior to other ORE systems.The F1-scores of the CORE-KE system on the two datasets have given a relative improvement of 20.1%and 1.3%,when compared with benchmark ORE systems,respectively.The source code is available at https:/github.COm/cjwen15/CORE-KE.

文摘Offline reinforcement learning leverages previously collected offline datasets to learn optimal policies with no necessity to access the real environment.Such a paradigm is also desirable for multi-agent reinforcement learning(MARL)tasks,given the combinatorially increased interactions among agents and with the environment.However,in MARL,the paradigm of offline pre-training with online fine-tuning has not been studied,nor even datasets or benchmarks for offline MARL research are available.In this paper,we facilitate the research by providing large-scale datasets and using them to examine the usage of the decision transformer in the context of MARL.We investigate the generalization of MARL offline pre-training in the following three aspects:1)between single agents and multiple agents,2)from offline pretraining to online fine tuning,and 3)to that of multiple downstream tasks with few-shot and zero-shot capabilities.We start by introducing the first offline MARL dataset with diverse quality levels based on the StarCraftII environment,and then propose the novel architecture of multi-agent decision transformer(MADT)for effective offline learning.MADT leverages the transformer′s modelling ability for sequence modelling and integrates it seamlessly with both offline and online MARL tasks.A significant benefit of MADT is that it learns generalizable policies that can transfer between different types of agents under different task scenarios.On the StarCraft II offline dataset,MADT outperforms the state-of-the-art offline reinforcement learning(RL)baselines,including BCQ and CQL.When applied to online tasks,the pre-trained MADT significantly improves sample efficiency and enjoys strong performance in both few-short and zero-shot cases.To the best of our knowledge,this is the first work that studies and demonstrates the effectiveness of offline pre-trained models in terms of sample efficiency and generalizability enhancements for MARL.

文摘Earth observations,especially satellite data,have produced a wealth of methods and results in meeting global challenges,often presented in unstructured texts such as papers or reports.Accurate extraction of satellite and instrument entities from these unstructured texts can help to link and reuse Earth observation resources.The direct use of an existing dictionary to extract satellite and instrument entities suffers from the problem of poor matching,which leads to low recall.In this study,we present a named entity recognition model to automatically extract satellite and instrument entities from unstructured texts.Due to the lack of manually labeled data,we apply distant supervision to automatically generate labeled training data.Accordingly,we fine-tune the pre-trained language model with early stopping and a weighted cross-entropy loss function.We propose the dictionary-based self-training method to correct the incomplete annotations caused by the distant supervision method.Experiments demonstrate that our method achieves significant improvements in both precision and recall compared to dictionary matching or standard adaptation of pre-trained language models.
文摘The agriculture sector is no exception to the widespread usage of deep learning tools and techniques.In this paper,an automated detection method on the basis of pre-trained Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)models is proposed to identify and classify paddy crop biotic stresses from the field images.The proposed work also provides the empirical comparison among the leading CNN models with transfer learning from the ImageNet weights namely,Inception-V3,VGG-16,ResNet-50,DenseNet-121 and MobileNet-28.Brown spot,hispa,and leaf blast,three of the most common and destructive paddy crop biotic stresses that occur during the flowering and ripening growth stages are considered for the experimentation.The experimental results reveal that the ResNet-50 model achieves the highest average paddy crop stress classification accuracy of 92.61%outperforming the other considered CNN models.The study explores the feasibility of CNN models for the paddy crop stress identification as well as the applicability of automated methods to non-experts.

文摘Medical named entity recognition(NER)is an area in which medical named entities are recognized from medical texts,such as diseases,drugs,surgery reports,anatomical parts,and examination documents.Conventional medical NER methods do not make full use of un-labelled medical texts embedded in medical documents.To address this issue,we proposed a medical NER approach based on pre-trained language models and a domain dictionary.First,we constructed a medical entity dictionary by extracting medical entities from labelled medical texts and collecting medical entities from other resources,such as the YiduN4 K data set.Second,we employed this dictionary to train domain-specific pre-trained language models using un-labelled medical texts.Third,we employed a pseudo labelling mechanism in un-labelled medical texts to automatically annotate texts and create pseudo labels.Fourth,the BiLSTM-CRF sequence tagging model was used to fine-tune the pre-trained language models.Our experiments on the un-labelled medical texts,which were extracted from Chinese electronic medical records,show that the proposed NER approach enables the strict and relaxed F1 scores to be 88.7%and 95.3%,respectively.
文摘Artificial intelligence is increasingly entering everyday healthcare.Large language model(LLM)systems such as Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer(ChatGPT)have become potentially accessible to everyone,including patients with inflammatory bowel diseases(IBD).However,significant ethical issues and pitfalls exist in innovative LLM tools.The hype generated by such systems may lead to unweighted patient trust in these systems.Therefore,it is necessary to understand whether LLMs(trendy ones,such as ChatGPT)can produce plausible medical information(MI)for patients.This review examined ChatGPT’s potential to provide MI regarding questions commonly addressed by patients with IBD to their gastroenterologists.From the review of the outputs provided by ChatGPT,this tool showed some attractive potential while having significant limitations in updating and detailing information and providing inaccurate information in some cases.Further studies and refinement of the ChatGPT,possibly aligning the outputs with the leading medical evidence provided by reliable databases,are needed.

文摘Personality recognition plays a pivotal role when developing user-centric solutions such as recommender systems or decision support systems across various domains,including education,e-commerce,or human resources.Tra-ditional machine learning techniques have been broadly employed for personality trait identification;nevertheless,the development of new technologies based on deep learning has led to new opportunities to improve their performance.This study focuses on the capabilities of pre-trained language models such as BERT,RoBERTa,ALBERT,ELECTRA,ERNIE,or XLNet,to deal with the task of personality recognition.These models are able to capture structural features from textual content and comprehend a multitude of language facets and complex features such as hierarchical relationships or long-term dependencies.This makes them suitable to classify multi-label personality traits from reviews while mitigating computational costs.The focus of this approach centers on developing an architecture based on different layers able to capture the semantic context and structural features from texts.Moreover,it is able to fine-tune the previous models using the MyPersonality dataset,which comprises 9,917 status updates contributed by 250 Facebook users.These status updates are categorized according to the well-known Big Five personality model,setting the stage for a comprehensive exploration of personality traits.To test the proposal,a set of experiments have been performed using different metrics such as the exact match ratio,hamming loss,zero-one-loss,precision,recall,F1-score,and weighted averages.The results reveal ERNIE is the top-performing model,achieving an exact match ratio of 72.32%,an accuracy rate of 87.17%,and 84.41%of F1-score.The findings demonstrate that the tested models substantially outperform other state-of-the-art studies,enhancing the accuracy by at least 3%and confirming them as powerful tools for personality recognition.These findings represent substantial advancements in personality recognition,making them appropriate for the development of user-centric applications.

文摘With the help of pre-trained language models,the accuracy of the entity linking task has made great strides in recent years.However,most models with excellent performance require fine-tuning on a large amount of training data using large pre-trained language models,which is a hardware threshold to accomplish this task.Some researchers have achieved competitive results with less training data through ingenious methods,such as utilizing information provided by the named entity recognition model.This paper presents a novel semantic-enhancement-based entity linking approach,named semantically enhanced hardware-friendly entity linking(SHEL),which is designed to be hardware friendly and efficient while maintaining good performance.Specifically,SHEL's semantic enhancement approach consists of three aspects:(1)semantic compression of entity descriptions using a text summarization model;(2)maximizing the capture of mention contexts using asymmetric heuristics;(3)calculating a fixed size mention representation through pooling operations.These series of semantic enhancement methods effectively improve the model's ability to capture semantic information while taking into account the hardware constraints,and significantly improve the model's convergence speed by more than 50%compared with the strong baseline model proposed in this paper.In terms of performance,SHEL is comparable to the previous method,with superior performance on six well-established datasets,even though SHEL is trained using a smaller pre-trained language model as the encoder.
文摘Structural development defects essentially refer to code structure that violates object-oriented design principles. They make program maintenance challenging and deteriorate software quality over time. Various detection approaches, ranging from traditional heuristic algorithms to machine learning methods, are used to identify these defects. Ensemble learning methods have strengthened the detection of these defects. However, existing approaches do not simultaneously exploit the capabilities of extracting relevant features from pre-trained models and the performance of neural networks for the classification task. Therefore, our goal has been to design a model that combines a pre-trained model to extract relevant features from code excerpts through transfer learning and a bagging method with a base estimator, a dense neural network, for defect classification. To achieve this, we composed multiple samples of the same size with replacements from the imbalanced dataset MLCQ1. For all the samples, we used the CodeT5-small variant to extract features and trained a bagging method with the neural network Roberta Classification Head to classify defects based on these features. We then compared this model to RandomForest, one of the ensemble methods that yields good results. Our experiments showed that the number of base estimators to use for bagging depends on the defect to be detected. Next, we observed that it was not necessary to use a data balancing technique with our model when the imbalance rate was 23%. Finally, for blob detection, RandomForest had a median MCC value of 0.36 compared to 0.12 for our method. However, our method was predominant in Long Method detection with a median MCC value of 0.53 compared to 0.42 for RandomForest. These results suggest that the performance of ensemble methods in detecting structural development defects is dependent on specific defects.
