Pathologies of Neural Models Make Interpretations Difficult

no code implementations EMNLP 2018 Shi Feng, Eric Wallace, Alvin Grissom II, Mohit Iyyer, Pedro Rodriguez, Jordan Boyd-Graber

In existing interpretation methods for NLP, a word's importance is determined by either input perturbation---measuring the decrease in model confidence when that word is removed---or by the gradient with respect to that word.

no code implementations LREC 2012 Alvin Grissom II, Yusuke Miyao

These embedded presuppositions provide implicit information about facts assumed to be true in the world, and are thus potentially valuable in areas of research such as textual entailment.
