This paper presents our contribution to the SemEval-2022 Task 2: Multilingual Idiomaticity Detection and Sentence Embedding. We explore the impact of three different pre-trained multilingual language models in the SubTaskA. By enhancing the model generalization and robustness, we use the exponential moving average (EMA) method and the adversarial attack strategy. In SubTaskB, we add an effective cross-attention module for modeling the relationships of two sentences. We jointly train the model with a contrastive learning objective and employ a momentum contrast to enlarge the number of negative pairs. Additionally, we use the alignment and uniformity properties to measure the quality of sentence embeddings. Our approach obtained competitive results in both subtasks.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
