Domain-Specific Language Model Post-Training for Indonesian Financial NLP

BERT and IndoBERT have achieved impressive performance in several NLP tasks. There has been several investigation on its adaption in specialized domains especially for English language. We focus on financial domain and Indonesian language, where we perform post-training on pre-trained IndoBERT for financial domain using a small scale of Indonesian financial corpus. In this paper, we construct an Indonesian self-supervised financial corpus, Indonesian financial sentiment analysis dataset, Indonesian financial topic classification dataset, and release a family of BERT models for financial NLP. We also evaluate the effectiveness of domain-specific post-training on sentiment analysis and topic classification tasks. Our findings indicate that the post-training increases the effectiveness of a language model when it is fine-tuned to domain-specific downstream tasks.

Low-Resource Clickbait Spoiling for Indonesian via Question Answering

Clickbait spoiling aims to generate a short text to satisfy the curiosity induced by a clickbait post. As it is a newly introduced task, the dataset is only available in English so far. Our contributions include the construction of manually labeled clickbait spoiling corpus in Indonesian and an evaluation on using cross-lingual zero-shot question answering-based models to tackle clikcbait spoiling for low-resource language like Indonesian. We utilize selection of multilingual language models. The experimental results suggest that XLM-RoBERTa (large) model outperforms other models for phrase and passage spoilers, meanwhile, mDeBERTa (base) model outperforms other models for multipart spoilers.
