What Can We Learn from Collective Human Opinions on Natural Language Inference Data?

1 code implementation EMNLP 2020 Yixin Nie, Xiang Zhou, Mohit Bansal

Analysis reveals that: (1) high human disagreement exists in a noticeable amount of examples in these datasets; (2) the state-of-the-art models lack the ability to recover the distribution over human labels; (3) models achieve near-perfect accuracy on the subset of data with a high level of human agreement, whereas they can barely beat a random guess on the data with low levels of human agreement, which compose most of the common errors made by state-of-the-art models on the evaluation sets.
