Generating paraphrases that are lexically similar but semantically different is a challenging task. Paraphrases of this form can be used to augment data sets for various NLP tasks such as machine reading comprehension and question answering with non-trivial negative examples. In this article, we propose a deep variational model to generate paraphrases conditioned on a label that specifies whether the paraphrases are semantically related or not. We also present new training recipes and KL regularization techniques that improve the performance of variational paraphrasing models. Our proposed model demonstrates promising results in enhancing the generative power of the model by employing label-dependent generation on paraphrasing datasets.

Automatic generation of paraphrases from a given sentence is an important yet challenging task in natural language processing (NLP), and plays a key role in a number of applications such as question answering, search, and dialogue. In this paper, we present a deep reinforcement learning approach to paraphrase generation. Specifically, we propose a new framework for the task, which consists of a textit{generator} and an textit{evaluator}, both of which are learned from data. The generator, built as a sequence-to-sequence learning model, can produce paraphrases given a sentence. The evaluator, constructed as a deep matching model, can judge whether two sentences are paraphrases of each other. The generator is first trained by deep learning and then further fine-tuned by reinforcement learning in which the reward is given by the evaluator. For the learning of the evaluator, we propose two methods based on supervised learning and inverse reinforcement learning respectively, depending on the type of available training data. Empirical study shows that the learned evaluator can guide the generator to produce more accurate paraphrases. Experimental results demonstrate the proposed models (the generators) outperform the state-of-the-art methods in paraphrase generation in both automatic evaluation and human evaluation.
The goal behind Domain Adaptation (DA) is to leverage the labeled examples from a source domain so as to infer an accurate model in a target domain where labels are not available or in scarce at the best. A state-of-the-art approach for the DA is due to (Ganin et al. 2016), known as DANN, where they attempt to induce a common representation of source and target domains via adversarial training. This approach requires a large number of labeled examples from the source domain to be able to infer a good model for the target domain. However, in many situations obtaining labels in the source domain is expensive which results in deteriorated performance of DANN and limits its applicability in such scenarios. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to overcome this limitation. In our work, we first establish that DANN reduces the original DA problem into a semi-supervised learning problem over the space of common representation. Next, we propose a learning approach, namely TransDANN, that amalgamates adversarial learning and transductive learning to mitigate the detrimental impact of limited source labels and yields improved performance. Experimental results (both on text and images) show a significant boost in the performance of TransDANN over DANN under such scenarios. We also provide theoretical justification for the performance boost.

To advance the development of science and technology, research proposals are submitted to open-court competitive programs developed by government agencies (e.g., NSF). Proposal classification is one of the most important tasks to achieve effective an d fair review assignments. Proposal classification aims to classify a proposal into a length-variant sequence of labels. In this paper, we formulate the proposal classification problem into a hierarchical multi-label classification task. Although there are certain prior studies, proposal classification exhibit unique features: 1) the classification result of a proposal is in a hierarchical discipline structure with different levels of granularity; 2) proposals contain multiple types of documents; 3) domain experts can empirically provide partial labels that can be leveraged to improve task performances. In this paper, we focus on developing a new deep proposal classification framework to jointly model the three features. In particular, to sequentially generate labels, we leverage previously-generated labels to predict the label of next level; to integrate partial labels from experts, we use the embedding of these empirical partial labels to initialize the state of neural networks. Our model can automatically identify the best length of label sequence to stop next label prediction. Finally, we present extensive results to demonstrate that our method can jointly model partial labels, textual information, and semantic dependencies in label sequences, and, thus, achieve advanced performances.
Learning with the textit{instance-dependent} label noise is challenging, because it is hard to model such real-world noise. Note that there are psychological and physiological evidences showing that we humans perceive instances by decomposing them in to parts. Annotators are therefore more likely to annotate instances based on the parts rather than the whole instances, where a wrong mapping from parts to classes may cause the instance-dependent label noise. Motivated by this human cognition, in this paper, we approximate the instance-dependent label noise by exploiting textit{part-dependent} label noise. Specifically, since instances can be approximately reconstructed by a combination of parts, we approximate the instance-dependent textit{transition matrix} for an instance by a combination of the transition matrices for the parts of the instance. The transition matrices for parts can be learned by exploiting anchor points (i.e., data points that belong to a specific class almost surely). Empirical evaluations on synthetic and real-world datasets demonstrate our method is superior to the state-of-the-art approaches for learning from the instance-dependent label noise.
Attribute extrapolation in sample generation is challenging for deep neural networks operating beyond the training distribution. We formulate a new task for extrapolation in sequence generation, focusing on natural language and proteins, and propose GENhance, a generative framework that enhances attributes through a learned latent space. Trained on movie reviews and a computed protein stability dataset, GENhance can generate strongly-positive text reviews and highly stable protein sequences without being exposed to similar data during training. We release our benchmark tasks and models to contribute to the study of generative modeling extrapolation and data-driven design in biology and chemistry.
