Adapting a Language Model While Preserving its General Knowledge

2 code implementations21 Jan 2023 Zixuan Ke, Yijia Shao, Haowei Lin, Hu Xu, Lei Shu, Bing Liu

This paper shows that the existing methods are suboptimal and proposes a novel method to perform a more informed adaptation of the knowledge in the LM by (1) soft-masking the attention heads based on their importance to best preserve the general knowledge in the LM and (2) contrasting the representations of the general and the full (both general and domain knowledge) to learn an integrated representation with both general and domain-specific knowledge.

Understanding Pre-trained BERT for Aspect-based Sentiment Analysis

2 code implementations COLING 2020 Hu Xu, Lei Shu, Philip S. Yu, Bing Liu
