• Auto LF generation: Lots of little models, big benefits
  May 31, 2022Fred Sala
  - Constructing labeling functions (LFs) is at the heart of using weak supervision. We often think of these labeling functions as programmatic expressions of domain expertise or heuristics. Indeed, much of the advantage of weak supervision is that we can save time—writing labeling functions and applying them to data at scale… ...
• Building a COVID fact-checking system with external knowledge
  May 26, 2022Annie Yang
  - Powerful resources to leverage as labeling functions In this post, we’ll use the COVID-FACT dataset to demonstrate how to use existing resources as labeling functions (LFs), to build a fact-checking system. The COVID-FACT dataset contains 4086 claims about the COVID-19 pandemic; it contains claims, evidence for the claims, and contradictory… ...
