在本文中，我们提出了Tetris，这是一个面向目标脚本完成的新任务。与以前的工作不同，它考虑了一个更现实，更通用的设置，其中输入不仅包括目标，还包括其他用户上下文，包括偏好和历史记录。为了使用基于知识的方法解决问题，我们介绍了任务概念图，这是一种自动从教学网站构建的知识库。不同于常识知识基础（例如ConceptNet），任务概念图架构架构介绍了专门用于完成任务的各种基于名词短语的节点。为了将这些图形集成到脚本学习中，我们设计了两种从知识库中获取概念的方法，以作为下游脚本完成的提示。在我们的基于Wikihow的数据集中，我们发现从任务概念图中合并概念会始终提高性能，并证明任务概念图的好处。此外，具有金色标准概念的模型迅速胜过基线，进一步证实了在目标脚本完成中对特定于任务知识的需求。数据集，存储库，模型和演示将公开使用，以促进对这项新任务的进一步研究。

面向目标的生成脚本学习旨在根据目标生成后续步骤，这是帮助机器人进行日常生活的刻板印象活动的重要任务。我们表明，如果历史状态不仅被给人的语言指示捕获，而且还可以增强随附图像提供的其他信息，可以提高此任务的性能。因此，我们提出了一项新任务，多媒体生成脚本学习，以通过跟踪文本和视觉方式中的历史状态，并介绍包含2,338个任务和31,496个步骤的第一个基准，从而生成后续步骤。我们旨在生成视觉状态的脚本，这些脚本是可跟踪的，对看不见的任务的诱导性，并且在各自的步骤中多样化。我们建议通过多媒体选择性编码器编码视觉状态更改，并使用检索仪的解码器从先前观察到的任务中转移知识，并通过优化面向多样性的对比度学习目标来在每个步骤中介绍不同的信息。我们定义指标以评估发电质量和电感质量。实验结果表明，我们的方法明显优于强质基线。

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.

Storytelling and narrative are fundamental to human experience, intertwined with our social and cultural engagement. As such, researchers have long attempted to create systems that can generate stories automatically. In recent years, powered by deep learning and massive data resources, automatic story generation has shown significant advances. However, considerable challenges, like the need for global coherence in generated stories, still hamper generative models from reaching the same storytelling ability as human narrators. To tackle these challenges, many studies seek to inject structured knowledge into the generation process, which is referred to as structure knowledge-enhanced story generation. Incorporating external knowledge can enhance the logical coherence among story events, achieve better knowledge grounding, and alleviate over-generalization and repetition problems in stories. This survey provides the latest and comprehensive review of this research field: (i) we present a systematical taxonomy regarding how existing methods integrate structured knowledge into story generation; (ii) we summarize involved story corpora, structured knowledge datasets, and evaluation metrics; (iii) we give multidimensional insights into the challenges of knowledge-enhanced story generation and cast light on promising directions for future study.

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.

语言规划旨在通过分解为更简单的低级步骤来实现复杂的高级目标。这种程序推理能力对于诸如家用机器人和虚拟助手等应用至关重要。尽管语言规划是日常生活中人类的基本技能，但对于缺乏现实世界中缺乏深层常识性知识的大型语言模型（LLM）来说，这仍然是一个挑战。以前的方法需要手动示例或带注释的程序才能从LLM中获取此类能力。相比之下，本文提出了神经符号的因果语言规划师（CLAP），该策划者通过注入常识的提示从LLM中引起了程序知识。 LLMS中的预训练知识本质上是一种未观察到的混杂因素，它在任务和行动计划之间引起虚假的相关性。通过结构性因果模型（SCM）的镜头，我们提出了一个有效的策略，以构建提示作为对SCM的因果干预。我们的策略使用图形采样技术和符号程序执行者，正式从常识知识基础上形成结构化因果提示。拍手在Wikihow和机器人上获得最新的表现，在反事实环境下，人类评估的相对提高了5.28％。这表明在语义和顺序的因果语言规划中拍手的优势。

在本文中，我们建议利用对话的独特特征，共享参与者的常识性知识，以解决总结它们的困难。我们提出了病态的框架，该框架使用常识推论作为其他背景。与以前仅依赖于输入对话的工作相比，Sick使用外部知识模型来生成丰富的常识推断，并选择具有基于相似性选择方法的最可能的推理。基于生病的，病人++的理解为监督，在总结多任务学习环境中的对话时，添加了产生常识推断的任务。实验结果表明，通过注入常识性知识，我们的框架比现有方法产生更多信息和一致的摘要。

文本样式传输是自然语言生成中的重要任务，旨在控制生成的文本中的某些属性，例如礼貌，情感，幽默和许多其他特性。它在自然语言处理领域拥有悠久的历史，最近由于深神经模型带来的有希望的性能而重大关注。在本文中，我们对神经文本转移的研究进行了系统调查，自2017年首次神经文本转移工作以来跨越100多个代表文章。我们讨论了任务制定，现有数据集和子任务，评估，以及丰富的方法在存在并行和非平行数据存在下。我们还提供关于这项任务未来发展的各种重要主题的讨论。我们的策据纸张列表在https://github.com/zhijing-jin/text_style_transfer_survey

We address the general task of structured commonsense reasoning: given a natural language input, the goal is to generate a graph such as an event -- or a reasoning-graph. To employ large language models (LMs) for this task, existing approaches ``serialize'' the output graph as a flat list of nodes and edges. Although feasible, these serialized graphs strongly deviate from the natural language corpora that LMs were pre-trained on, hindering LMs from generating them correctly. In this paper, we show that when we instead frame structured commonsense reasoning tasks as code generation tasks, pre-trained LMs of code are better structured commonsense reasoners than LMs of natural language, even when the downstream task does not involve source code at all. We demonstrate our approach across three diverse structured commonsense reasoning tasks. In all these natural language tasks, we show that using our approach, a code generation LM (CODEX) outperforms natural-LMs that are fine-tuned on the target task (e.g., T5) and other strong LMs such as GPT-3 in the few-shot setting.

对事件序列的预测对于信息检索和自然语言处理中的许多现实世界应用至关重要。在事件序列预测中，未来的活动生成（FEG）是一项具有挑战性的任务，因为它不仅需要流利的文本生成，而且需要常识性推理才能保持整个事件故事的逻辑连贯性。在本文中，我们提出了一个新颖的可解释的FEG框架COEP。它突出并整合了两种类型的事件知识，对直接事件事件关系的顺序知识以及推论知识，这些知识反映了事件之间的中间角色心理学（例如意图，原因，反应），这些心理本质地将故事推向了故事。为了减轻知识遗忘问题，我们为每种类型的知识设计了两个模块，即IM和GM，它们是通过及时调整组合的。首先，IM专注于理解推论知识，以产生常识性解释并为通用汽车提供软提示向量。我们还设计了一种对比歧视器，以提高概括能力。其次，GM通过用IM的指导对直接顺序知识进行建模来生成未来事件。自动和人类评估表明，我们的方法可以产生更连贯，具体和逻辑的未来事件。

Generating novel and useful concepts is essential during the early design stage to explore a large variety of design opportunities, which usually requires advanced design thinking ability and a wide range of knowledge from designers. Growing works on computer-aided tools have explored the retrieval of knowledge and heuristics from design data. However, they only provide stimuli to inspire designers from limited aspects. This study explores the recent advance of the natural language generation (NLG) technique in the artificial intelligence (AI) field to automate the early-stage design concept generation. Specifically, a novel approach utilizing the generative pre-trained transformer (GPT) is proposed to leverage the knowledge and reasoning from textual data and transform them into new concepts in understandable language. Three concept generation tasks are defined to leverage different knowledge and reasoning: domain knowledge synthesis, problem-driven synthesis, and analogy-driven synthesis. The experiments with both human and data-driven evaluation show good performance in generating novel and useful concepts.

近年来带来了对自然语言理解领域的勤义代表和推理的重新兴趣。新的致辞知识图表（CSKG）的发展是这些进步的核心，因为他们的不同事实可以通过机器学习模型来解决新的和具有挑战性的任务。与此同时，由于全面地涵盖了一般勤杂朗知识所需的大规模规模，对这些资源的质量和覆盖率仍存在疑问。在这项工作中，我们将手动构建的CSKGS分配在NLP代理商遇到的所有情况下，我们将永远不会实现适用所需的覆盖范围。因此，我们提出了一种新的评估框架，用于测试KGS的效用，基于如何从中学习有效的隐式知识表示。通过这一新目标，我们提出了一个含有知识的全新CSKG的新CSKG，该知识不容易获得预用的语言模型。我们与其他领先的CSKG相比，评估其属性，表现了对勤杂朗语言知识资源的第一个大规模对研究。接下来，我们显示原子2020更适合培训知识模型，可以为新的，看不见的实体和事件产生准确，代表知识。最后，通过人类评估，我们表明，尽管使用超过430倍的参数，但GPT-3（175B参数）的几次射击性能较低，而令人印象深刻，令人印象深刻，令人印象深刻，令人印象深刻，仍然低于原子型2020的巴特的知识模型。

人类使用自然语言来撰写普通概念，将他们的环境归结为合理的日常场景描述。然而，这种生成的致辞推理（GCSR）技能缺乏最先进的文本生成方法。关于由神经文本生成模型（例如，预先接受的文本到文本变压器）生成的任意概念的描述性句子通常是语法流畅的，但可能与人类常识不相符，这主要是由于它们缺乏捕获概念关系的机制识别隐式概念，并对看不见的概念组成来执行概括的推理。在本文中，我们提出了一种想象的 - 言语（I＆V）方法，其学会在输入概念之间的关系中想象一个关系场景知识图（SKG），并在生成合理的场景描述时利用SKG作为约束。我们收集和协调来自不同领域和方式的一套知识资源，为I＆v提供丰富的辅助监督信号。该实验展示了I＆V在提高概念到句子和概念到故事的生成任务上的语言模型的有效性，同时使模型能够从更少的任务示例中学习并生成对人类注入者常识的SKG。

本文对过去二十年来对自然语言生成（NLG）的研究提供了全面的审查，特别是与数据到文本生成和文本到文本生成深度学习方法有关，以及NLG的新应用技术。该调查旨在（a）给出关于NLG核心任务的最新综合，以及该领域采用的建筑;（b）详细介绍各种NLG任务和数据集，并提请注意NLG评估中的挑战，专注于不同的评估方法及其关系;（c）强调一些未来的强调和相对近期的研究问题，因为NLG和其他人工智能领域的协同作用而增加，例如计算机视觉，文本和计算创造力。

最近已被证明大型语言模型在各种任务集中获得合理的零射普通化（Brown等，2020）。它已经假设这是语言模型的隐式多任务学习的结果，在语言模型中的预押（Radford等，2019）。可以通过明确的多任务学习直接引起零拍常规化？为了以缩放测试这个问题，我们开发一个系统，以便轻松地将任何自然语言任务映射到人类可读的提示表单中。我们转换一组大量的监督数据集，每个数据集都有多个提示，具有不同的措辞。这些提示的数据集允许基准测试模型执行完全看不见的任务的能力。我们介绍了一个普拉克尔编码器 - 解码器模型（Raffel等，2020; Lester等，2021），覆盖各种任务。该模型在多个标准数据集中达到强大的零点性能，通常优于其尺寸的型号超过16倍。此外，我们的方法对来自Big-替补基准测试的任务子集具有强烈性能，优于其尺寸的6倍。所有提示和培训的型号都可以在https://github.com/ bigscience-workshop / protectsource / httpsource / https：//huggingface.co/bigscience/t0pp。

会话推荐系统（CRS）已成为一个新兴的研究主题，试图通过交互式对话进行建议，这些对话通常由发电和建议模块组成。 CRS的先前工作倾向于将更多的外部和领域特定知识纳入项目评论，以提高性能。尽管事实的收集和注释特定于外部领域的信息需要大量的人类努力并脱离了普遍性，但过多的额外知识在它们之间带来了更大的困难。因此，我们建议从上下文中充分发现和提取内部知识。我们将实体级别和上下文级别的表示形式捕获为对建议的共同模拟用户的偏好，在这种情况下，时间吸引的注意力旨在强调实体级表示中最近出现的项目。我们进一步使用预训练的巴特来初始化生成模块，以减轻数据稀缺性并增强上下文建模。除了在流行数据集（REDIAIL）上进行实验外，我们还包括一个多域数据集（OpenDialKg）来显示我们模型的有效性。两个数据集的实验都表明，我们的模型在大多数评估指标上都具有更好的性能，其外部知识较少，并且可以很好地推广到其他领域。对建议和生成任务的其他分析证明了我们在不同情况下模型的有效性。

预先接受的语言模型（PLM）在神经对话建模中标志着巨大的飞跃。虽然PLMS在大型文本语料库上进行预先培训，但通常在具有特定领域知识和对话风格的稀缺对话数据上进行微调。然而，在大型预先训练模型中充分利用现有知识的同时定制语言模型仍然是一个挑战。在本文中，我们提出了一种预先接受训练的对话建模的新方法，将对话生成问题作为一个快速学习任务。而不是在有限的对话数据上进行微调，我们的方法，DialogPrompt学习针对对话背景优化的连续提示嵌入，从而从大型预训练模型中促进了知识。为了鼓励模型更好地利用提示嵌入，提示编码器被设计为在输入对话框上下文中的条件。流行对话数据集的实验表明，我们的方法显着优于微调基线和通用及时学习方法。此外，人类评估强烈支持对DialialPrompt的优越性在响应生成质量方面。

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.

Biological systems in nature have evolved for millions of years to adapt and survive the environment. Many features they developed can be inspirational and beneficial for solving technical problems in modern industries. This leads to a specific form of design-by-analogy called bio-inspired design (BID). Although BID as a design method has been proven beneficial, the gap between biology and engineering continuously hinders designers from effectively applying the method. Therefore, we explore the recent advance of artificial intelligence (AI) for a data-driven approach to bridge the gap. This paper proposes a generative design approach based on the generative pre-trained language model (PLM) to automatically retrieve and map biological analogy and generate BID in the form of natural language. The latest generative pre-trained transformer, namely GPT-3, is used as the base PLM. Three types of design concept generators are identified and fine-tuned from the PLM according to the looseness of the problem space representation. Machine evaluators are also fine-tuned to assess the mapping relevancy between the domains within the generated BID concepts. The approach is evaluated and then employed in a real-world project of designing light-weighted flying cars during its conceptual design phase The results show our approach can generate BID concepts with good performance.

动机，情感和行动是人类活动中相关的基本因素。尽管长期以来一直认为动机和情感是探索人们如何在人类活动中采取行动的核心，但几乎没有研究支持分析人类精神状态与行动之间的关系。我们介绍了第一项研究，该研究研究了基于语言的人类活动中建模动机，情感和行动的生存能力，即逗号（人类活动的认知框架）。在逗号的指导下，我们定义了三个自然语言处理任务（情感理解，动机理解和有条件的动作生成），并通过自动从故事常识中提取样本来建立一个具有挑战性的数据集冰雹。 NLP应用程序的实验结果证明了建模关系的有效性。此外，与现有方法相比，受逗号启发的模型可以更好地揭示动机，情感和行动之间的基本关系。
