Commonsense Validation and Explanation Task

This repository contains the code for our submission to SemEval-2020 task 4: Commonsense Validation and Explanation Task (ComVe). The task is explained in the picture below. Please look at the paper here for more details

The data provided by the task organizers is available under the following repository.

Subtask A and B will are evaluated using accuracy. Subtask C is evaluated using BLEU score.

How to run the code

Setup

  export COMVE_DIR=/path/to/COMVE_data_dir
  export OUTPUT_DIR=/path/to/output_dir 
  conda create -n comve_env python=3.6
  conda activate comve_env
  pip3 install requirements.txt

Task A

  python3 ./run_taskA.py \
          --model_type bert \
          --task_name swag \
          --model_name_or_path bert-base-uncased \
          --do_train \
          --do_eval \
          --do_test \
          --data_dir $COMVE_DIR \
          --learning_rate 5e-5 \
          --num_train_epochs 3 \
          --max_seq_length 80 \
          --output_dir $OUTPUT_DIR \
          --per_gpu_eval_batch_size=8 \
          --per_gpu_train_batch_size=8 \
          --gradient_accumulation_steps 2 \
          --overwrite_output > results.csv

Task B
