GLIMMER: generalized late-interaction memory reranker

no code implementations17 Jun 2023 Michiel de Jong, Yury Zemlyanskiy, Nicholas FitzGerald, Sumit Sanghai, William W. Cohen, Joshua Ainslie

Memory-augmentation is a powerful approach for efficiently incorporating external information into language models, but leads to reduced performance relative to retrieving text.

CoLT5: Faster Long-Range Transformers with Conditional Computation

no code implementations17 Mar 2023 Joshua Ainslie, Tao Lei, Michiel de Jong, Santiago Ontañón, Siddhartha Brahma, Yury Zemlyanskiy, David Uthus, Mandy Guo, James Lee-Thorp, Yi Tay, Yun-Hsuan Sung, Sumit Sanghai

Many natural language processing tasks benefit from long inputs, but processing long documents with Transformers is expensive -- not only due to quadratic attention complexity but also from applying feedforward and projection layers to every token.

QA Is the New KR: Question-Answer Pairs as Knowledge Bases

no code implementations1 Jul 2022 Wenhu Chen, William W. Cohen, Michiel de Jong, Nitish Gupta, Alessandro Presta, Pat Verga, John Wieting

In this position paper, we propose a new approach to generating a type of knowledge base (KB) from text, based on question generation and entity linking.

Grounding Complex Navigational Instructions Using Scene Graphs

no code implementations3 Jun 2021 Michiel de Jong, Satyapriya Krishna, Anuva Agarwal

Training a reinforcement learning agent to carry out natural language instructions is limited by the available supervision, i. e. knowing when the instruction has been carried out.

ReadTwice: Reading Very Large Documents with Memories

no code implementations NAACL 2021 Yury Zemlyanskiy, Joshua Ainslie, Michiel de Jong, Philip Pham, Ilya Eckstein, Fei Sha

Knowledge-intensive tasks such as question answering often require assimilating information from different sections of large inputs such as books or article collections.

Weighted Global Normalization for Multiple Choice Reading Comprehension over Long Documents

no code implementations5 Dec 2018 Aditi Chaudhary, Bhargavi Paranjape, Michiel de Jong

Motivated by recent evidence pointing out the fragility of high-performing span prediction models, we direct our attention to multiple choice reading comprehension.
