MixPro: Simple yet Effective Data Augmentation for Prompt-based Learning
Prompt-based learning reformulates downstream tasks as cloze problems by
combining the original input with a template. This technique is particularly
useful in few-shot learning, where a model is trained on a limited amount of
data. However, the limited templates and text used in few-shot prompt-based
learning still leave significant room for performance improvement.
Additionally, existing methods using model ensembles can constrain the model
efficiency. To address these issues, we propose an augmentation method called
MixPro, which augments both the vanilla input text and the templates through
token-level, sentence-level, and epoch-level Mixup strategies. We conduct
experiments on five few-shot datasets, and the results show that MixPro
outperforms other augmentation baselines, improving model performance by an
average of 5.08% compared to before augmentation.Comment: Under review at the Frontiers of Computer Science
