This addresses the problem of computational efficiency for NLP practitioners in resource-constrained environments, but it is incremental as it focuses on verifying existing claims.
This reproducibility study investigates whether ELECTRA can achieve near state-of-the-art NLP performance in low-resource settings with efficient compute costs, as claimed by Clark et al. [2020].
Clark et al. [2020] claims that the ELECTRA approach is highly efficient in NLP performances relative to computation budget. As such, this reproducibility study focus on this claim, summarized by the following question: Can we use ELECTRA to achieve close to SOTA performances for NLP in low-resource settings, in term of compute cost?
