Better Fine-Tuning by Reducing Representational Collapse

This repo contains the code to replicate all experiments from the Better Fine-Tuning by Reducing Representational Collapse paper excluding the probing results.

The R3F sentence prediction criterion is registered as sentence_prediction_r3f while the label smoothing version of it is implemented as label_smoothed_cross_entropy_r3f. The R4F version of the sentence prediction criterion can be achieved by applying spectral norm to the classification head via the --spectral-norm-classification-head parameter.

Hyper-parameters

Our methods introduce 3 new hyper-parameters; --eps which sets the standard deviation or range of the distribution we're sampling from, --r3f-lambda which controls the combining of logistic loss and noisy KL loss and --noise-type which controls which parametric distribution we use ('normal', 'uniform').

For example to run R3F on RTE from GLUE
