CKF: Conditional Knowledge Fusion Method for CommonSense Question Answering
摘要
Augmenting pretrained language model (PLM) with knowledge graph (KG) has demonstrated superior performance for commonsense question answering (CSQA). In the knowledge fusion process, existing KG-augmented methods ignore (i) exploiting the knowledge of PLM and (ii) the supervisory role of PLM. As a result, the noise of KG cannot be filtered effectively in the knowledge fusion process. In this paper, we propose a Conditional Knowledge Fusion method (CKF) ( https://github.com/Xie-Minghui/CKF/ ). to enhance the commonsense reasoning ability of PLM. First, we apply the prompt learning method to exploit the knowledge of PLM which can provide a better semantic supervision signal for the knowledge fusion process. Second, we design a conditional fusion module to filter out the noise of KG. To further improve performance, we design a re-attention mechanism to supplement PLM with commonsense knowledge. Experimental results demonstrate the superior effectiveness of CKF through considerable performance gains across three popular benchmark datasets.
