Dynamic Negative Example Construction for Grammatical Error Correction using Contrastive Learning

Proceedings of the 21st Chinese National Conference on Computational Linguistics

“Grammatical error correction (GEC) aims at correcting texts with different types of grammatical errors into natural and correct forms. Due to the difference of error type distribution and error density, current grammatical error correction systems may over-correct writings and produce a low precision. To address this issue, in this paper, we propose a dynamic negative example construction method for grammatical error correction using contrastive learning. The proposed method can construct sufficient negative examples with diverse grammatical errors, and can be dynamically used during model training. The constructed negative examples are beneficial for the GEC model to correct sentences precisely and suppress the model from over-correction. Experimental results show that our proposed method enhances model precision, proving the effectiveness of our method.”

Fundamental Analysis based Neural Network for Stock Movement Prediction

“Stock movements are influenced not only by historical prices, but also by information outside the market such as social media and news about the stock or related stock. In practice, news or prices of a stock in one day are normally impacted by different days with different weights, and they can influence each other. In terms of this issue, in this paper, we propose a fundamental analysis based neural network for stock movement prediction. First, we propose three new technical indicators based on raw prices according to the finance theory as the basic encode of the prices of each day. Then, we introduce a coattention mechanism to capture the sufficient context information between text and prices across every day within a time window. Based on the mutual promotion and influence of text and price at different times, we obtain more sufficient stock representation. We perform extensive experiments on the real-world StockNet dataset and the experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our method.”

Multi-task Legal Judgement Prediction Combining a Subtask of Seriousness of Charge

Proceedings of the 19th Chinese National Conference on Computational Linguistics

Legal Judgement Prediction has attracted more and more attention in recent years. One of the challenges is how to design a model with better interpretable prediction results. Previous studies have proposed different interpretable models based on the generation of court views and the extraction of charge keywords. Different from previous work, we propose a multi-task legal judgement prediction model which combines a subtask of the seriousness of charges. By introducing this subtask, our model can capture the attention weights of different terms of penalty corresponding to the charges and give more attention to the correct terms of penalty in the fact descriptions. Meanwhile, our model also incorporates the position of defendant making it capable of giving attention to the contextual information of the defendant. We carry several experiments on the public CAIL2018 dataset. Experimental results show that our model achieves better or comparable performance on three subtasks compared with the baseline models. Moreover, we also analyze the interpretable contribution of our model.
