Using Two Losses and Two Datasets Simultaneously to Improve TempoWiC Accuracy

15 Dec 2022  ·  Mohammad Javad Pirhadi, Motahhare Mirzaei, Sauleh Eetemadi ·

WSD (Word Sense Disambiguation) is the task of identifying which sense of a word is meant in a sentence or other segment of text. Researchers have worked on this task (e.g. Pustejovsky, 2002) for years but it's still a challenging one even for SOTA (state-of-the-art) LMs (language models). The new dataset, TempoWiC introduced by Loureiro et al. (2022b) focuses on the fact that words change over time. Their best baseline achieves 70.33% macro-F1. In this work, we use two different losses simultaneously to train RoBERTa-based classification models. We also improve our model by using another similar dataset to generalize better. Our best configuration beats their best baseline by 4.23% and reaches 74.56% macroF1.
