Natural Language Processing (NLP) has been revolutionized by the use of Pre-trained Language Models (PLMs) such as BERT. Despite setting new records in nearly every NLP task, PLMs still face a number of challenges including poor interpretability, weak reasoning capability, and the need for a lot of expensive annotated data when applied to downstream tasks. By integrating external knowledge into PLMs, \textit{\underline{K}nowledge-\underline{E}nhanced \underline{P}re-trained \underline{L}anguage \underline{M}odels} (KEPLMs) have the potential to overcome the above-mentioned limitations. In this paper, we examine KEPLMs systematically through a series of studies. Specifically, we outline the common types and different formats of knowledge to be integrated into KEPLMs, detail the existing methods for building and evaluating KEPLMS, present the applications of KEPLMs in downstream tasks, and discuss the future research directions. Researchers will benefit from this survey by gaining a quick and comprehensive overview of the latest developments in this field.

Controllable Text Generation (CTG) is emerging area in the field of natural language generation (NLG). It is regarded as crucial for the development of advanced text generation technologies that are more natural and better meet the specific constraints in practical applications. In recent years, methods using large-scale pre-trained language models (PLMs), in particular the widely used transformer-based PLMs, have become a new paradigm of NLG, allowing generation of more diverse and fluent text. However, due to the lower level of interpretability of deep neural networks, the controllability of these methods need to be guaranteed. To this end, controllable text generation using transformer-based PLMs has become a rapidly growing yet challenging new research hotspot. A diverse range of approaches have emerged in the recent 3-4 years, targeting different CTG tasks which may require different types of controlled constraints. In this paper, we present a systematic critical review on the common tasks, main approaches and evaluation methods in this area. Finally, we discuss the challenges that the field is facing, and put forward various promising future directions. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first survey paper to summarize CTG techniques from the perspective of PLMs. We hope it can help researchers in related fields to quickly track the academic frontier, providing them with a landscape of the area and a roadmap for future research.

立场检测旨在确定文本的作者是否赞成,反对或中立。这项任务的主要挑战是两个方面的:由于不同目标以及缺乏目标的上下文信息而产生的几乎没有学习。现有作品主要通过设计基于注意力的模型或引入嘈杂的外部知识来解决第二期,而第一个问题仍未探索。在本文中,受到预训练的语言模型(PLM)的潜在能力(PLM)的启发,我们建议介绍基于立场检测的及时基于迅速的微调。 PLM可以为目标提供基本的上下文信息,并通过提示启用几次学习。考虑到目标在立场检测任务中的关键作用,我们设计了目标感知的提示并提出了一种新颖的语言。我们的语言器不会将每个标签映射到具体单词,而是将每个标签映射到矢量,并选择最能捕获姿势与目标之间相关性的标签。此外,为了减轻通过单人工提示来处理不同目标的可能缺陷,我们建议将信息从多个提示中学到的信息提炼。实验结果表明,我们提出的模型在全数据和少数场景中的表现出色。

大型语言模型在各种任务上显示出令人印象深刻的几次结果。但是,当知识是此类结果的关键时,就像问题回答和事实检查之类的任务一样,似乎需要存储知识的大量参数计数。众所周知,检索增强模型可以在不需要多个参数的情况下在知识密集的任务上表现出色,但是目前尚不清楚它们是否在几个弹药设置中工作。在这项工作中,我们介绍了地图集,这是一个经过精心设计和预先训练的增强语言模型,能够通过很少的培训示例学习知识密集型任务。我们对包括MMLU,苏格兰短裙和归类等各种任务进行评估,并研究文档索引内容的影响,表明它可以很容易地进行更新。值得注意的是,在自然问题上仅使用64个示例在自然问题上达到超过42 \%的准确性,尽管参数少了50倍,但比540B参数模型的表现优于540b参数模型。

We introduce a new language representation model called BERT, which stands for Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers. Unlike recent language representation models (Peters et al., 2018a;Radford et al., 2018), BERT is designed to pretrain deep bidirectional representations from unlabeled text by jointly conditioning on both left and right context in all layers. As a result, the pre-trained BERT model can be finetuned with just one additional output layer to create state-of-the-art models for a wide range of tasks, such as question answering and language inference, without substantial taskspecific architecture modifications.BERT is conceptually simple and empirically powerful. It obtains new state-of-the-art results on eleven natural language processing tasks, including pushing the GLUE score to 80.5% (7.7% point absolute improvement), MultiNLI accuracy to 86.7% (4.6% absolute improvement), SQuAD v1.1 question answering Test F1 to 93.2 (1.5 point absolute improvement) and SQuAD v2.0 Test F1 to 83.1 (5.1 point absolute improvement).

We demonstrate that scaling up language models greatly improves task-agnostic, few-shot performance, sometimes even becoming competitive with prior state-ofthe-art fine-tuning approaches. Specifically, we train GPT-3, an autoregressive language model with 175 billion parameters, 10x more than any previous nonsparse language model, and test its performance in the few-shot setting. For all tasks, GPT-3 is applied without any gradient updates or fine-tuning, with tasks and few-shot demonstrations specified purely via text interaction with the model. GPT-3 achieves strong performance on many NLP datasets, including translation, question-answering, and cloze tasks. We also identify some datasets where GPT-3's few-shot learning still struggles, as well as some datasets where GPT-3 faces methodological issues related to training on large web corpora.

Pre-trained Language Models (PLMs) which are trained on large text corpus through the self-supervised learning method, have yielded promising performance on various tasks in Natural Language Processing (NLP). However, though PLMs with huge parameters can effectively possess rich knowledge learned from massive training text and benefit downstream tasks at the fine-tuning stage, they still have some limitations such as poor reasoning ability due to the lack of external knowledge. Incorporating knowledge into PLMs has been tried to tackle these issues. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review of Knowledge-Enhanced Pre-trained Language Models (KE-PLMs) to provide a clear insight into this thriving field. We introduce appropriate taxonomies respectively for Natural Language Understanding (NLU) and Natural Language Generation (NLG) to highlight the focus of these two kinds of tasks. For NLU, we take several types of knowledge into account and divide them into four categories: linguistic knowledge, text knowledge, knowledge graph (KG), and rule knowledge. The KE-PLMs for NLG are categorized into KG-based and retrieval-based methods. Finally, we point out some promising future directions of KE-PLMs.

The goal of building dialogue agents that can converse with humans naturally has been a long-standing dream of researchers since the early days of artificial intelligence. The well-known Turing Test proposed to judge the ultimate validity of an artificial intelligence agent on the indistinguishability of its dialogues from humans'. It should come as no surprise that human-level dialogue systems are very challenging to build. But, while early effort on rule-based systems found limited success, the emergence of deep learning enabled great advance on this topic. In this thesis, we focus on methods that address the numerous issues that have been imposing the gap between artificial conversational agents and human-level interlocutors. These methods were proposed and experimented with in ways that were inspired by general state-of-the-art AI methodologies. But they also targeted the characteristics that dialogue systems possess.

本文旨在通过介绍第一个中国数学预训练的语言模型〜(PLM)来提高机器的数学智能,以有效理解和表示数学问题。与其他标准NLP任务不同,数学文本很难理解,因为它们在问题陈述中涉及数学术语,符号和公式。通常,它需要复杂的数学逻辑和背景知识来解决数学问题。考虑到数学文本的复杂性质,我们设计了一种新的课程预培训方法,用于改善由基本和高级课程组成的数学PLM的学习。特别是,我们首先根据位置偏见的掩盖策略执行令牌级预训练,然后设计基于逻辑的预训练任务,旨在分别恢复改组的句子和公式。最后,我们介绍了一项更加困难的预训练任务,该任务强制执行PLM以检测和纠正其生成的解决方案中的错误。我们对离线评估(包括九个与数学相关的任务)和在线$ A/B $测试进行了广泛的实验。实验结果证明了与许多竞争基线相比,我们的方法的有效性。我们的代码可在:\ textColor {blue} {\ url {https://github.com/rucaibox/jiuzhang}}}中获得。

在本文中,我们利用了以前的预训练模型(PTM)的优势,并提出了一种新型的中国预训练的不平衡变压器(CPT)。与以前的中国PTM不同,CPT旨在利用自然语言理解(NLU)和自然语言生成(NLG)之间的共同知识来促进表现。 CPT包括三个部分:共享编码器,一个理解解码器和一代解码器。具有共享编码器的两个特定解码器分别通过蒙版语言建模(MLM)进行了预训练,并分别将自动编码(DAE)任务进行了验证。借助部分共享的体系结构和多任务预培训,CPT可以(1)使用两个解码器学习NLU或NLG任务的特定知识,并且(2)对模型的潜力充分利用了微调。此外,不平衡的变压器节省了计算和存储成本,这使CPT竞争激烈,并极大地加速了文本生成的推断。对各种中国NLU和NLG任务的实验结果显示了CPT的有效性。

本文着重于几次NLP任务的文本数据增强。现有的数据增强算法要么使用一个小型培训集来生成新的合成数据,要么利用与任务无关的启发式规则(例如,同义词替代)或微调通用预训练的语言模型(例如GPT2)。因此,这些方法具有特定于任务的知识,并且仅限于在简单任务中为弱基线产生低质量的合成数据。为了解决这个问题,我们提出了知识混合数据增强模型(KNOWDA):使用知识混合培训(KOMT)在不同的NLP任务的混合物上预测的编码器LM。 KOMT是一种培训程序,将各种异质NLP任务的输入示例重新定义为统一的文本到文本格式,并采用不同粒度的目标,以学习生成部分或完整的样本。在KOMT的帮助下,Knowda可以隐含地将所需的特定于任务的知识从任务的混合中隐含地结合在一起,并通过一些给定的实例迅速掌握目标任务的固有综合定律。据我们所知,我们是首次尝试将任务数量扩展到多任务共同培训以进行数据扩展。广泛的实验表明,i)Knowda成功地通过少量基准的基准成功地提高了Albert和Deberta的表现,表现优于先前的最新数据增强基线; ii)KNOWDA还可以改善少数弹药任务的模型性能,这是KOMT中未包含的固定任务类型。

Natural Language Generation (NLG) has improved exponentially in recent years thanks to the development of sequence-to-sequence deep learning technologies such as Transformer-based language models. This advancement has led to more fluent and coherent NLG, leading to improved development in downstream tasks such as abstractive summarization, dialogue generation and data-to-text generation. However, it is also apparent that deep learning based generation is prone to hallucinate unintended text, which degrades the system performance and fails to meet user expectations in many real-world scenarios. To address this issue, many studies have been presented in measuring and mitigating hallucinated texts, but these have never been reviewed in a comprehensive manner before. In this survey, we thus provide a broad overview of the research progress and challenges in the hallucination problem in NLG. The survey is organized into two parts: (1) a general overview of metrics, mitigation methods, and future directions; and (2) an overview of task-specific research progress on hallucinations in the following downstream tasks, namely abstractive summarization, dialogue generation, generative question answering, data-to-text generation, machine translation, and visual-language generation. This survey serves to facilitate collaborative efforts among researchers in tackling the challenge of hallucinated texts in NLG.

As an important fine-grained sentiment analysis problem, aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA), aiming to analyze and understand people's opinions at the aspect level, has been attracting considerable interest in the last decade. To handle ABSA in different scenarios, various tasks are introduced for analyzing different sentiment elements and their relations, including the aspect term, aspect category, opinion term, and sentiment polarity. Unlike early ABSA works focusing on a single sentiment element, many compound ABSA tasks involving multiple elements have been studied in recent years for capturing more complete aspect-level sentiment information. However, a systematic review of various ABSA tasks and their corresponding solutions is still lacking, which we aim to fill in this survey. More specifically, we provide a new taxonomy for ABSA which organizes existing studies from the axes of concerned sentiment elements, with an emphasis on recent advances of compound ABSA tasks. From the perspective of solutions, we summarize the utilization of pre-trained language models for ABSA, which improved the performance of ABSA to a new stage. Besides, techniques for building more practical ABSA systems in cross-domain/lingual scenarios are discussed. Finally, we review some emerging topics and discuss some open challenges to outlook potential future directions of ABSA.
