Semi-supervised Domain Adaptation for Dependency Parsing with Dynamic Matching Network

Abstract

This presentation is about our work on semi-supervised domain adaptation for dependency parsing with dynamic matching network. We for the first time apply a dynamic matching network on the shared-private model for semi-supervised cross-domain dependency parsing. Meanwhile, considering the scarcity of target-domain labeled data, we leverage unlabeled data from two aspects, i.e., designing a new training strategy to improve the capability of the dynamic matching network and fine-tuning BERT to obtain domain-related contextualized representations. Experiments on benchmark datasets show that our proposed model consistently outperforms various baselines, leading to new state-of-the-art results on all domains.
