Knowledge Prompts: Injecting World Knowledge into Language Models through Soft Prompts
Cicero Nogueira dos Santos,Zhe Dong,Daniel Cer,John Nham,Siamak Shakeri,Jianmo Ni,Yun-Hsuan Sung +6 more
TL;DR: This work introduces a method to train soft prompts via self-supervised learning on data from knowledge bases and demonstrates that KPs can effectively model the structure of the training data and can be used to improve the performance of LMs in different knowledge intensive tasks.
