The state of the art in learning meaningful semantic representations of words is the Transformer model and its attention mechanisms. Simply put, the attention mechanisms learn to attend to specific parts of the input dispensing recurrence and convolutions. While some of the learned attention heads have been found to play linguistically interpretable roles, they can be redundant or prone to errors. We propose a method to guide the attention heads towards roles identified in prior work as important. We do this by defining role-specific masks to constrain the heads to attend to specific parts of the input, such that different heads are designed to play different roles. Experiments on text classification and machine translation using 7 different datasets show that our method outperforms competitive attention-based, CNN, and RNN baselines.

We generalize deep self-attention distillation in MiniLM (Wang et al., 2020) by only using self-attention relation distillation for task-agnostic compression of pretrained Transformers. In particular, we define multi-head self-attention relations as
scaled dot-product between the pairs of query, key, and value vectors within each self-attention module. Then we employ the above relational knowledge to train the student model. Besides its simplicity and unified principle, more favorably, there is no restriction in terms of the number of students attention heads, while most previous work has to guarantee the same head number between teacher and student. Moreover, the fine-grained self-attention relations tend to fully exploit the interaction knowledge learned by Transformer. In addition, we thoroughly examine the layer selection strategy for teacher models, rather than just relying on the last layer as in MiniLM. We conduct extensive experiments on compressing both monolingual and multilingual pretrained models. Experimental results demonstrate that our models distilled from base-size and large-size teachers (BERT, RoBERTa and XLM-R) outperform the state-of-the-art.
In this paper, we propose a hybrid text normalization system using multi-head self-attention. The system combines the advantages of a rule-based model and a neural model for text preprocessing tasks. Previous studies in Mandarin text normalization us
ually use a set of hand-written rules, which are hard to improve on general cases. The idea of our proposed system is motivated by the neural models from recent studies and has a better performance on our internal news corpus. This paper also includes different attempts to deal with imbalanced pattern distribution of the dataset. Overall, the performance of the system is improved by over 1.5% on sentence-level and it has a potential to improve further.
Transformer model has been widely used on machine translation tasks and obtained state-of-the-art results. In this paper, we report an interesting phenomenon in its encoder-decoder multi-head attention: different attention heads of the final decoder
layer align to different word translation candidates. We empirically verify this discovery and propose a method to generate diverse translations by manipulating heads. Furthermore, we make use of these diverse translations with the back-translation technique for better data augmentation. Experiment results show that our method generates diverse translations without severe drop in translation quality. Experiments also show that back-translation with these diverse translations could bring significant improvement on performance on translation tasks. An auxiliary experiment of conversation response generation task proves the effect of diversity as well.
With the aim of promoting and understanding the multilingual version of image search, we leverage visual object detection and propose a model with diverse multi-head attention to learn grounded multilingual multimodal representations. Specifically, o
ur model attends to different types of textual semantics in two languages and visual objects for fine-grained alignments between sentences and images. We introduce a new objective function which explicitly encourages attention diversity to learn an improved visual-semantic embedding space. We evaluate our model in the German-Image and English-Image matching tasks on the Multi30K dataset, and in the Semantic Textual Similarity task with the English descriptions of visual content. Results show that our model yields a significant performance gain over other methods in all of the three tasks.
The attention mechanism of the Listen, Attend and Spell (LAS) model requires the whole input sequence to calculate the attention context and thus is not suitable for online speech recognition. To deal with this problem, we propose multi-head monotoni
c chunk-wise attention (MTH-MoChA), an improved version of MoChA. MTH-MoChA splits the input sequence into small chunks and computes multi-head attentions over the chunks. We also explore useful training strategies such as LSTM pooling, minimum world error rate training and SpecAugment to further improve the performance of MTH-MoChA. Experiments on AISHELL-1 data show that the proposed model, along with the training strategies, improve the character error rate (CER) of MoChA from 8.96% to 7.68% on test set. On another 18000 hours in-car speech data set, MTH-MoChA obtains 7.28% CER, which is significantly better than a state-of-the-art hybrid system.
