New Transformer Model 'TagInsert' Challenges Left-to-Right Generation Paradigm

Researchers have developed TagInsert, a novel Transformer-based model that deviates from the standard left-to-right generation approach for sequence labeling tasks. By removing the decoder-side attention mask, TagInsert allows the model to dynamically determine the optimal order for generating tags during inference. Experiments on Part-of-Speech tagging and Combinatory Categorial Grammar supertagging across various languages and low-resource settings demonstrate that TagInsert often surpasses left-to-right encoder-decoder models and performs comparably to encoder-only models like BERT in data-scarce environments. The model's ability to defer challenging predictions to later stages helps mitigate error propagation common in autoregressive models. AI

IMPACT Introduces a novel approach to sequence generation that could improve performance on specific tagging tasks, particularly in low-resource settings.

    Dynamic ordering in sequence generation in Transformers: experiments on low-resource Tagging scenarios

    arXiv:2610.21862v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper introduces TagInsert, a Transformer-based model that challenges the common left-to-right (L2R) generation paradigm in Transformers, for sequence labelling tasks where dependencies may not naturally align with a L2R order.…
