read's Introduction

READ

This repository is the official implementation of our ACL'23 Findings paper Robust Natural Language Understanding with Residual Attention Debiasing.

Installation

Dependency

Experiments are run in the following environment:

Package	Version
conda	22.9.0
Python	3.8
CUDA	11.8

Install via Conda and Pip

conda create -n read python=3.8
conda activate read
pip install -r requirements.txt

Data

Download:

FEVER train/dev/symmetric test data from FeverSymmetric GitHub repo
For PAWS-QQP:
- Generate PAWS-QQP data by following the instructions in the README file of the PAWS: Paraphrase Adversaries from Word Scrambling repo
- Put the generated train.tsv and dev_and_test.tsv under qqp_paws directory The dataset directory should contain the following files:

└── dataset 
    └── fever
        ├── fever.dev.jsonl
        ├── fever.train.jsonl
        └── fever_symmetric_generated.jsonl
    └── qqp_paws
        ├── dev_and_test.tsv
        └── train.tsv

Training

Parameters are defined in train_ensemble.sh script. Change the value of task_name to the desired task name (mnli, fever, qqp). To train the ensemble model from scratch, please run the following

bash train_ensemble.sh

Evaluation

Due to different number of labels that MNLI and HANS datasets have, please:

Go to eval_hans.sh
Change value of model_name_or_path to your checkpoint
Run the following to evaluate model on HANS dataset:
```
bash eval_hans.sh
```
