Pretrained language models have demonstrated outstanding performance in many NLP tasks recently. However, their social intelligence, which requires commonsense reasoning about the current situation and mental states of others, is still developing. Towards improving language models social intelligence, we focus on the Social IQA dataset, a task requiring social and emotional commonsense reasoning. Building on top of the pretrained RoBERTa and GPT2 models, we propose several architecture variations and extensions, as well as leveraging external commonsense corpora, to optimize the model for Social IQA. Our proposed system achieves competitive results as those top-ranking models on the leaderboard. This work demonstrates the strengths of pretrained language models, and provides viable ways to improve their performance for a particular task.

Pretrained language models have excelled at many NLP tasks recently; however, their social intelligence is still unsatisfactory. To enable this, machines need to have a more general understanding of our complicated world and develop the ability to pe
rform commonsense reasoning besides fitting the specific downstream tasks. External commonsense knowledge graphs (KGs), such as ConceptNet, provide rich information about words and their relationships. Thus, towards general commonsense learning, we propose two approaches to emph{implicitly} and emph{explicitly} infuse such KGs into pretrained language models. We demonstrate our proposed methods perform well on SocialIQA, a social commonsense reasoning task, in both limited and full training data regimes.
The massive growth of digital biomedical data is making biomedical text indexing and classification increasingly important. Accordingly, previous research has devised numerous deep learning techniques focused on using feedforward, convolutional or re
current neural architectures. More recently, fine-tuned transformers-based pretrained models (PTMs) have demonstrated superior performance compared to such models in many natural language processing tasks. However, the direct use of PTMs in the biomedical domain is only limited to the target documents, ignoring the rich semantic information in the label descriptions. In this paper, we develop an improved label attention-based architecture to inject semantic label description into the fine-tuning process of PTMs. Results on two public medical datasets show that the proposed fine-tuning scheme outperforms the conventionally fine-tuned PTMs and prior state-of-the-art models. Furthermore, we show that fine-tuning with the label attention mechanism is interpretable in the interpretability study.
Deep pretrained language models have achieved great success in the way of pretraining first and then fine-tuning. But such a sequential transfer learning paradigm often confronts the catastrophic forgetting problem and leads to sub-optimal performanc
e. To fine-tune with less forgetting, we propose a recall and learn mechanism, which adopts the idea of multi-task learning and jointly learns pretraining tasks and downstream tasks. Specifically, we propose a Pretraining Simulation mechanism to recall the knowledge from pretraining tasks without data, and an Objective Shifting mechanism to focus the learning on downstream tasks gradually. Experiments show that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on the GLUE benchmark. Our method also enables BERT-base to achieve better performance than directly fine-tuning of BERT-large. Further, we provide the open-source RecAdam optimizer, which integrates the proposed mechanisms into Adam optimizer, to facility the NLP community.
Fine-tuning pre-trained language models such as BERT has become a common practice dominating leaderboards across various NLP tasks. Despite its recent success and wide adoption, this process is unstable when there are only a small number of training
samples available. The brittleness of this process is often reflected by the sensitivity to random seeds. In this paper, we propose to tackle this problem based on the noise stability property of deep nets, which is investigated in recent literature (Arora et al., 2018; Sanyal et al., 2020). Specifically, we introduce a novel and effective regularization method to improve fine-tuning on NLP tasks, referred to as Layer-wise Noise Stability Regularization (LNSR). We extend the theories about adding noise to the input and prove that our method gives a stabler regularization effect. We provide supportive evidence by experimentally confirming that well-performing models show a low sensitivity to noise and fine-tuning with LNSR exhibits clearly higher generalizability and stability. Furthermore, our method also demonstrates advantages over other state-of-the-art algorithms including L2-SP (Li et al., 2018), Mixout (Lee et al., 2020) and SMART (Jiang et al., 2020).
Large pre-trained sentence encoders like BERT start a new chapter in natural language processing. A common practice to apply pre-trained BERT to sequence classification tasks (e.g., classification of sentences or sentence pairs) is by feeding the emb
edding of [CLS] token (in the last layer) to a task-specific classification layer, and then fine tune the model parameters of BERT and classifier jointly. In this paper, we conduct systematic analysis over several sequence classification datasets to examine the embedding values of [CLS] token before the fine tuning phase, and present the biased embedding distribution issue---i.e., embedding values of [CLS] concentrate on a few dimensions and are non-zero centered. Such biased embedding brings challenge to the optimization process during fine-tuning as gradients of [CLS] embedding may explode and result in degraded model performance. We further propose several simple yet effective normalization methods to modify the [CLS] embedding during the fine-tuning. Compared with the previous practice, neural classification model with the normalized embedding shows improvements on several text classification tasks, demonstrates the effectiveness of our method.
