Journal Article
Yu, J., Cristea, A. I., Harit, A., Sun, Z., Aduragba, O. T., Shi, L., & Al Moubayed, N. (2023). Language as a latent sequence: Deep latent variable models for semi-supervised paraphrase generation. AI open, 4, 19-32. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aiopen.2023.05.001

This paper explores deep latent variable models for semi-supervised paraphrase generation, where the missing target pair for unlabelled data is modelled as a latent paraphrase sequence. We present a novel unsupervised model named variational sequence... Read More about Language as a latent sequence: Deep latent variable models for semi-supervised paraphrase generation.

Is Unimodal Bias Always Bad for Visual Question Answering? A Medical Domain Study with Dynamic Attention (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sun, Z., Harit, A., Cristea, A. I., Yu, J., Al Moubayed, N., & Shi, L. (2022, December). Is Unimodal Bias Always Bad for Visual Question Answering? A Medical Domain Study with Dynamic Attention. Presented at IEEE Big Data, Osaka, Japan

Medical visual question answering (Med-VQA) is to answer medical questions based on clinical images provided. This field is still in its infancy due to the complexity of the trio formed of questions, multimodal features and expert knowledge. In this...

Contrastive Learning with Heterogeneous Graph Attention Networks on Short Text Classification (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sun, Z., Harit, A., Cristea, A. I., Yu, J., Shi, L., & Al Moubayed, N. (2022, July). Contrastive Learning with Heterogeneous Graph Attention Networks on Short Text Classification. Presented at 2022 International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IJCNN), Padova, Italy

Graph neural networks (GNNs) have attracted extensive interest in text classification tasks due to their expected superior performance in representation learning. However, most existing studies adopted the same semi-supervised learning setting as the...
