Multi-Task Learning based Online Dialogic Instruction Detection with Pre-trained Language Models
Yang Hao, Hang Li, Wenbiao Ding, Zhongqin Wu, Jiliang Tang, Rose Luckin, Zitao Liu
In this work, we study computational approaches to detect online dialogic instructions, which are widely used to help students understand learning materials, and build effective study habits. This task is rather challenging due to the widely-varying quality and pedagogical styles of dialogic instructions. To address these challenges, we utilize pre-trained language models, and propose a multi-task paradigm which enhances the ability to distinguish instances of different classes by enlarging the margin between categories via contrastive loss. Furthermore, we design a strategy to fully exploit the misclassified examples during the training stage. Extensive experiments on a real-world online educational data set demonstrate that our approach achieves superior performance compared to representative baselines. To encourage reproducible results, we make our implementation online available at \url{https://github.com/AIED2021/multitask-dialogic-instruction}.
