GENERATING EXPLANATIONS FOR CONTEXT AWARE SEQUENCE-TO-SEQUENCE MODELS

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and computer program products for generating explanations for a semantic parser are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes providing to a generative model (i) at least one query and (ii) a context of at least one dataset applicable to the at least one query, wherein the generative model generates a plurality of perturbations for the at least one input query based on the context; providing the plurality of perturbations as inputs to a context aware sequence-to-sequence model, thereby obtaining a plurality of outputs; and generating, for (i) an additional query provided as input to the context aware sequence-to-sequence model and (ii) a context applicable to the additional query, an explanation indicative of one or more parts of the additional query that contributes to an output corresponding to the additional query, based at least in part on the plurality of outputs corresponding to the perturbations.
