Question of pretraining text-generation task, it seems that pretraining is not work for a small model?

My task is to generate keywords from sentences. I pretrain a text-generation model. I mask the sentences' tokens and predict the whole sentences' tokens. Pretraining batch_size = 8 and step =...

What is the principle of Unsupervised Data Augmentation (UDA)? Why does UDA work?

UDA(https://github.com/google-research/uda) could achieve good accuracy by only 20 training data on text classification. But I find it is hard to reproduce the result on my own dataset. So I...
