MBR and QE Finetuning: Training-time Distillation of the Best and Most Expensive Decoding Methods [PDF]
Recent research in decoding methods for Natural Language Generation (NLG) tasks has shown that MAP decoding is not optimal, because model probabilities do not always align with human preferences.

Objective comparison of methods to decode anomalous diffusion [PDF]
AbstractDeviations from Brownian motion leading to anomalous diffusion are found in transport dynamics from quantum physics to life sciences. The characterization of anomalous diffusion from the measurement of an individual trajectory is a challenging task, which traditionally relies on calculating the trajectory mean squared displacement.

Mainstream encoding–decoding methods of DNA data storage
DNA storage is a new digital data storage technology based on specific encoding and decoding methods between 0 and 1 binary codes of digital data and A-T-C-G quaternary codes of DNAs, which and is expected to develop into a major data storage form in the

PICARD: Parsing Incrementally for Constrained Auto-Regressive Decoding from Language Models [PDF]
Large pre-trained language models for textual data have an unconstrained output space; at each decoding step, they can produce any of 10,000s of sub-word tokens. When fine-tuned to target constrained formal languages like SQL, these models often generate

A Novel Decoding Method for the Erasure Codes [PDF]
The erasure codes are widely used in the distributed storage with low redundancy compared to the replication method. However, the current research studies about the erasure codes mainly focus on the encoding methods, while there are few studies on the decoding methods. In this paper, a novel erasure decoding method is proposed; it is a general decoding

Accelerating Transformer Inference for Translation via Parallel Decoding [PDF]
Autoregressive decoding limits the efficiency of transformers for Machine Translation (MT). The community proposed specific network architectures and learning-based methods to solve this issue, which are expensive and require changes to the MT model ...

Grammar-Constrained Decoding for Structured NLP Tasks without Finetuning [PDF]
Despite their impressive performance, large language models (LMs) still struggle with reliably generating complex output structures when not finetuned to follow the required output format exactly. To address this issue, grammar-constrained decoding (GCD)

Cascade Decoder: A Universal Decoding Method For Biomedical Image Segmentation [PDF]
The Encoder-Decoder architecture is a main stream deep learning model for biomedical image segmentation. The encoder fully compresses the input and generates encoded features, and the decoder then produces dense predictions using encoded features. However, decoders are still under-explored in such architectures.

Comparison of Diverse Decoding Methods from Conditional Language Models [PDF]
While conditional language models have greatly improved in their ability to output high quality natural language, many NLP applications benefit from being able to generate a diverse set of candidate sequences. Diverse decoding strategies aim to, within a
