  • HellaSwag: Can a Machine Really Finish Your Sentence?

    Rowan Zellers, Ari Holtzman, Yonatan Bisk, Ali Farhadi, Yejin Choi

    Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) · 2019

    The construction of HellaSwag, a new challenge dataset, and its resulting difficulty, sheds light on the inner workings of deep pretrained models, and suggests a new path forward for NLP research, in which benchmarks co-evolve with the evolving state-of-the-art in an adversarial way, so as to present ever-harder challenges.

  • The Curious Case of Neural Text Degeneration

    Ari Holtzman, Jan Buys, Leo Du, Maxwell Forbes, Yejin Choi

    arXiv · 2020

    By sampling text from the dynamic nucleus of the probability distribution, which allows for diversity while effectively truncating the less reliable tail of the distribution, the resulting text better demonstrates the quality of human text, yielding enhanced diversity without sacrificing fluency and coherence.

  • The Risk of Racial Bias in Hate Speech Detection

    Maarten Sap, Dallas Card, Saadia Gabriel, Yejin Choi, Noah A. Smith

    Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) · 2019

    This investigation reveals promising results when implicit knowledge from deep pre-trained language models is transferred to generate explicit knowledge in commonsense knowledge graphs, and suggests that using generative commonsense models for automatic commonsense KB completion could soon be a plausible alternative to extractive methods.
